Delhi Budget 2021-22: Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia presented the Budget on Tuesday in the Delhi Assembly. In this case, Sisodia has made a big announcement that all Delhiis will get the COVID-19 vaccine free of charge and the project will have an annual budget of Rs 50 crore.

Sisodia will present a budget of Rs 9,934 crore to the healthcare sector this year, while submitting a proposed budget of Rs 69,000 crore for the financial year 2021-22. Sisodia announced a budget of Rs 9,934 crore for Delhi’s health sector in 2021-22, which is 14% of the total budget.

What is special in Delhi government’s ‘patriotic budget’?

To get rid of COVID-19, a person has to go to a private hospital for Rs 250. He said they could pay and take the vaccine, but there are many people who have to think every day whether they have a family and you have to spend money buying rations or vaccinating. We believe that this question should not arise in the minds of the citizens in the 75th year of independence.

Sisodia said Rs 50 crore has been allocated under the ‘Aam Aadmi Free Covid Vaccine Scheme’. In his speech, Sisodia said the AAP government was getting free vaccines in its hospitals. The current capacity is to vaccinate about 45,000 people a day and soon it will be increased to 60,000 people a day.

In addition, learning from our COVID-19 management, we have invested Rs 1,293 crore for the expansion of healthcare services, including opening new hospitals, upgrading the elderly and raising beds.
