Following are the highlights of AAP govt's 'Swaraj Budget'. Just copy pasting it. Good job done for getting maximum allocation to Education and Health sector. While AAP in function, don't see chances of misappropriation of funds allocated in budget being anti corruption branch so active in Delhi. Good start but they have to be serious about pollution level, not significant effort visible.
* Pilot project in 11 constituencies with each constituency getting Rs 20 crore.
* Every district to get a Delhi District Urban Development Agency for micro-management of issues.
* E- governance and m-governance to be promoted.
* Rs 50 crore set aside for free Wi-Fi in all private colleges.
* Rs 9,836 crore for education. Out of a total 1,011 schools 50 schools to be developed as model schools.
* Special training programmes for teachers as well as exchange programmes.
* 20,000 new teachers to be appointed and to make teachers more accountable, CCTV cameras will be installed in all classrooms in government schools.
* Government school playgrounds to be made available to children from colonies. If private schools don't work with transparency, strict action will be taken against them.
* Amendment to be made to make private schools more accountable. Planning a 'skill university' to make Delhi into a knowledge and skill hub.
* Diploma courses will be started in each government polytechnic college and the number of seats to be increased by 100.
* Rs 4,787 crore has been allocated for health. 1,000 neighborhood clinics to be opened, out of which 500 will be completed this year, Rs 125 crore has been allocated for this.
* Proposal to have integrated fare for public transport, study for the same is on.
* Rs 5,085 crore have been allocated for transport. By the end of 2016, 1,380 low-floor buses, 500 mini buses and 1,000 cluster buses will be brought in, 1,200 new bus shelters to come up in the city.
* For women's safety, CCTVs in all cluster and DTC buses will be installed. Hostels for working women to be set up.

Prior to making any comment (good or bad) I would rather wait for next 2-3 years to see the impact on a common person’s life in Delhi. The initiative could be in good intent but the end result will decide the future. Execution is an important part of the process. The next 3 years will be acid test for AAP – they will be either Hero or Zero. If they can improve the common person’s life, Delhiite will keep them on top – as they did in the last election. I am still waiting to see the improvement at the ground level. Intentions could be good but the end result matters most.

Good budget. But, as mentioned, the real judgement would only be when the results are visible on the ground in an year or two.
Let's see, how the implementation of it all goes, especially the allocation for Education.
To repeat - if 5 other people also say this , I m sure the OP will reconsider ...
And so should you observe when more than 5-10 people are trying to drill sense in you .

In that case, you may chose to stay out of it and ignore it completely. Your prerogative. Please let the concerned parties discuss as per their collective interests. Please do not hijack it to 'tu-tu, main-main' discussion. Let's keep it to the point.
Does anybody have details from where this money will come? I am interested in information like - neighbourhood clinic - 500 clinic and Rs. 125 crore allocated. It seems too small amount to me for 500 clinics and how about regular expenses for those clinics. Similarly cctv camera in each classroom seems bad plan in my opinion. Hope for the best but this seems like typical budget.
I dis-agree completely with this - "While AAP in function, don't see chances of misappropriation of funds allocated in budget being anti corruption branch so active in Delhi". AAP is not seal of honesty and there are honest and dis-honest people everywhere.
