bulbul Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 i know, its not right thread to check the status of bjp poll promises, but lot modi fans around here, pls let me know the status of Diamond aka bullet trains... Delhi is bigger than entire India so its difficult to get all things done :agree:
G_B_ Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 All i am saying is I will also become a Kejri fan is he manages to ditch his poll promises and run a responsible corruption free government which works hard to bring jobs and further development to delhi. I personally will not hold it against AK if he does not full-fill his promises on schools electricity food prices water etc. Just run an efficient government where government services work as they are designed to work.

G_B_ Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Its a serious question Who raises taxes in Delhi? For example is there anything stopping Kejriwal from raising say stamp duty and other taxes? Cause if i was the middle class i would be ready for a big hike in my expenses and taxes. I can see liquor and ciggerates for example having a big jump in taxes.(something i support) Expect a huge jump in prices of vehicles etc. I expect this to hit the middle classes (upper and middle middle) hard. I do believe TMC when they came into power did the same in WB? I could be wrong.
amiret Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 anybody knows, bjp promises tracking thread? if any share the link. They have fulfilled all of their promises . including black money retrieval within 100 days. Every indian has received Rs.15 Lakhs in his/her bank account.

So, AK has zilch powers. They government has a little more say than MCD, but it is all ceremonial. Definitely not on taxes. May be in Transport they can raise bus fare.

Tiger80 Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 How sad for a municipal election country's PM' date=' whole ministry and hundreds of incumbent MPs stopped whole functioning of govt and descended in municipality for campaign and still couldn't win more than 3 of 70s seats. Next time Modi/Shah should target a gram-panchayat election. :giggle:[/quote'] Because Delhi is prestige issue for everybody. A person robbed in delhi get more media coverage than 10 tribals killed in some part of country. AAP's real test will come when they will move to states where they will hardly get any media coverage
seedhi Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Delhi State Government has no Finance ministry. The budget of Delhi is presented by the Union Finance minister. So' date= AK has zilch powers. They government has a little more say than MCD, but it is all ceremonial. Definitely not on taxes. May be in Transport they can raise bus fare.It has a Department of Finance. The reason it did not have a finance minister is because the CM (Sheila Dixit) held the portfolio and presented the budget. Last years budget was presented by Arun Jaitley because of President's rule. The AAP govt can certainly have a finance minister or Kejri can hold the portfolio and they can and will present a budget soon.
Sachin=GOD Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: I posted an article a few posts ago (in reply to Aaku) - read that to understand the severe limits of Kejriwal's power. He has promised the moon without realizing (or despite knowing) that he has to take money and consent from the central govt for almost everything.
amiret Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 A person robbed in delhi get more media coverage than 10 tribals killed in some part of country. coverage Speaking of Tribals dying in some remote part of the country and media completely ignoring their plight. Here is something else that the media mostly ignored. The Statements of the outgoing Director General of the CRPF made in late Nov 2014, he blamed certain state Govts for fostering maoist violence : "CRPF director general Trivedi said certain states had vested interest in letting Maoist violence continue as it helped them get massive central funds. Sources said the DG was hinting at Chhattisgarh , Jharkhand and Odisha. Few days after he made this statement 13 CRPF Jawans were ambushed and slaughtered in Chattisgarh by Maoists. CRPF jawans have become cannon fodder in Chattisgarh while the Govt & corporate mainstream media don't seem to care.

I personally will not hold it against AK if he does not full-fill his promises on schools electricity food prices water etc. Just run an efficient government where government services work as they are designed to work. I understand that and would even support that, but people in Delhi have voted just for those promises to be fulfilled. So, they might not be satisfied with just an efficient administration.
Number Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Shekhar Gupta @ShekharGupta Today #AAP is media's candidate as much as VPSingh was in 87-89.
