सोलहवे वित्त आयोग के लिए तीन सुझाव। 3 Ideas for the 16th Finance Commission

The 16th Finance Commission is expected to be set up by November. So, this week on Puliyabaazi we discuss how vertical and horizontal devolution is decided based on the formula set by the Finance Commission, why some redistribution is inevitable, and Pranay’s three ideas to incentivize better fiscal performance in the states.

वित्त आयोग की फार्मूला के अनुसार केंद्र और राज्यों के बीच टैक्स का बंटवारा कैसे होता है? इस आवंटन में क्या बदलाव किये जा सकते है ताकि राज्यों के वित्तीय कामकाज में सुधार हो? इसी पर प्रणय देते है कुछ सुझाव इस पुलियाबाज़ी में। तो सुनियेगा ज़रूर।
