Rule of andhra pradesh The supreme court has received an affidavit from congress PARTY' target='_blank' title='ysr congress-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW">ysr congress wanting to participate in the proceedings in the case involving the distribution of "freebies." The petition said that it is the duty of an elected government to put policies in place that will reduce poverty and provide people with better access to healthcare, education, and work opportunities. The congress PARTY' target='_blank' title='ysr congress-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW">ysr congress noted that even while such an expenditure is frequently categorised as a revenue expenditure, it has a long-term influence on the formation of assets and an improvement in quality of life.
The supreme court heard the freebies controversy when ashwini Upadhyay of the bjp filed a case challenging the offer of freebies during election season. As of now, the aam aadmi party of arvind kejriwal and the DMK, which is in power in tamil Nadu, have both made requests to participate in the proceedings. Both parties passionately disagree with the bjp leader's position in their petitions. The petition argued that although though spending on agriculture, health care, education, and poverty eradication is recognised as revenue spending under the present accounting system, it shouldn't be considered "wasteful."
Spending on these social areas has a huge potential to build long-term human capital and assets with enormous socioeconomic relevance. The argument also mentioned economists who were awarded the 2019 Sveriges Riskbank prize in Economic sciences in honour of alfred Nobel, including Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo, and Michael Kremer. These economists have stated in a number of research publications that government programmes that envision direct transfer of benefits have had successful results in terms of education and health, according to the petition.
