SIBY JEYYA
Deputy chief minister Mallu bhatti vikramarka promised that the State government would not impose any new taxes on the populace and that, in addition to pursuing other welfare and development initiatives, emphasis would be placed on creating alternate revenue sources for the efficient implementation of guarantees. According to what he indicated in the assembly on Thursday, consultants will be brought in to recommend ways to generate other revenue streams.
 

The previous government, according to the finance minister, was preoccupied with yearly budget presentations that were exaggerated. He noted that every year there was a discrepancy between the budget forecasts and actual expenditure of around twenty percent.
 
"The congress government presented a realistic budget, in contrast to the previous government." bhatti vikramarka stated, "Every precaution will be taken to guarantee that the discrepancy between the budget forecasts and spending is around five to eight percent.
 
BRS working president KT Rama Rao objected when the Finance minister stated that telangana was second from the bottom in terms of budget expenditures, after Punjab, and wanted the minister to also discuss Telangana's per capita income and other indexes.
 

Bhatti Vikramarka said that gross borrowings from open markets will be raised by GSDP and total Rs 60,000 crore. He stated that the majority of the new loans will be used to settle the principal and interest on existing debts, taking into account the loans raised by the previous administration.
 
The Finance minister stated that Rs 53,000 crore had been set aside by the State government to execute assurances. Of this amount, Rs 15,075 crore was set aside for Rythu Bharosa, Rs 7,740 crore for Indiramma homes, Rs 2,418 crore for Gruha Jyothi, and Rs 723 crore for the Rs 500 LPG cylinder plan.
 

According to him, the government was determined to fill all 2 lakh positions; in addition, 64 new positions were authorized, and appointment orders had been sent to 6,956 nurses and 13,444 police constables.
 
In response, BRS members urged that the minister disclose the notification date as well and requested that congress refrain from taking credit for the excellent work that the BRS government had accomplished.
 
Senior BRS leader Kadiyam srihari noted that there would be a Rs 53,000 crore budget deficit despite borrowings of Rs 60,000 crore and tax income of Rs 20,000.
 

Furthermore, he mentioned that 3,500 Indiramma Houses will be built in each assembly seat as per the State government's pledge. Only Rs 7,740 crore were allotted, although Rs 23,000 crore will be needed at this pace.
 
"I request that the government divide up the hiring schedule so that two lakh positions may be filled. Aside from this, srihari stated that although financial support of Rs 12 lakh was promised to sc and STs under Abhaya Hastham, no budgetary provision was provided.
