Sir,
You have been publishing Budget Wish list for last few days .None of the suggestions have come from an ordinery senior citizen who has been mostly self employed but now retired.
Our country"s financial position, if viewed objectively, will be found to be in an extreemly precorious condition.we have huge current account deficit and dangerously high Budget deficit.Agriculture is in shambles and food security is seriously threaned.It is therefore imperative that we make optimum use of our resourses, increase tax collection,not by increasing tax,but by going after tax dodgers.However Ihave doubts wheather our Govt,has the political will and the guts to doso.The Govt, must go for administrative reforms We must reduce our expenses on socalled Govt. employees most of whom will come under non-performing assets of our poor countrymen.Social sector expenses must not be nade till proper and effiecient delivery to the target sector is ensured. Our govt.(read politicians) have no right to squander away scarce recouces collected from poor peopleby way of taxes.Sound economic principles should guide our finance minister and not populism.My request to the finance minister is that he should spend our resources prudently to create wealth and lasting assets which will result in continuing benifit to the target sectors and avoid profligacy.
I am a senior citizen,70 years old surviving on intert income I am not one of those Priviledged Class called Govt, Emploee who enjoys pension and other benifits and privileges.The rising prices of essential commddities and diminishing income from lower and lower interest rates has affected my living standard like never before .Can the finance minister do any thing to alleviate our difficulty?
