Delhi ministers are entitled to type 6 bungalows but Kejriwal and Sisodia have insisted on type 7 bungalows for them, sources said. Sisodia's demand can only be met by the Union Urban Development Ministry as the bungalow he has demanded for comes under the Central pool. The AB-17 bungalow is a type 7 duplex with a huge drawing-cum-dining hall, sprawling lawns and staff quarters within the premises. Sources said Kejriwal has expressed his inhibitions towards shifting to the designated bungalow for the Delhi chief minister at 33, Shamnath Marg. The bungalow has been tagged as 'jinxed' for over a decade now. Many politicians, including two chief ministers - Chaudhary Brahma Prakash and Madan Lal Khurana - lived in the bungalow 'only to meet a troubled fate'. None of them could complete full terms in office. Former Delhi minister Deep Chand Bandhu died of illness during his stay in this bungalow. Former power secretary Shakti Srivastava was the last occupant of the house.
VIP culture ..the end or beginning?

Apparently, if you use more than 400 units, you will be paying full price. which means no price cut for 90% of delhi. :hysterical: I think I hate Kejritard about 0.5% less today than I did yesterday. Perhaps a sign that he is going to take his job seriously enough.

@ibnlive: Ready to extend power benefits to all if Centre shares cost: AAP :laugh:
Didn't Center already allocate higher percentage of revenues to states?

Delhi is not a state. :ohmy:
But seriously. Doesn't Delhi also get a higher percentage of revenues? I would think the same formula would apply.

Well, I would like to believe so. But UTs do have their own set of rules. So I honestly can't say for sure. Either way, even with the increase, the manifesto promises can't be fulfilled without the Centre providing substantial support.

Yes, of course the center should help them with substantial support. Take money from all other states and create a "Delhi Utopia Conversion Fund". :two_thumbs_up:
