Delhi chief minister Rekha Gupta on Monday stated that the 'Viksit Delhi' budget for 2025-26 will be presented in the assembly between March 24 and 26.

During a press briefing, she highlighted that the budget will be drafted after considering inputs from diverse sections of society.

"To make this a people's budget, we will meet representatives from different women's organisations on March 5 on the assembly premises. Additionally, we will hold discussions with stakeholders from the education sector and traders on March 6," the chief minister was quoted as saying by PTI.

Additionally, she shared details, including an email ID and a WhatsApp number, for residents to send in their budget recommendations.

Gupta assured that all commitments made in the BJP's 'Sankalp Patra' will be met and stressed that her government is working at full speed to deliver on them.

Further, Gupta said that only two Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) reports have been tabled in the assembly so far and they have already exposed multiple corruption charges against the previous AAP government.

"Twelve more CAG reports are yet to be tabled and more irregularities are likely to surface," she said.

Cabinet ministers Parvesh Sahib Singh, Ashish Sood, and Manjinder Singh Sirsa were present at the press conference.
