Internal security budget crosses Rs. 50,000-crore mark

Issue No. 7 | April 01-15, 2013

The central spending to counter internal security challenges is set to cross the Rs. 50,000 crore-mark over the next one year, twice of what was being spent in 2008 when terrorists struck Mumbai. In the budget, the police has got a generous 19 per cent hike to fight crime and terror.

Chidambaram’s budget earmarked Rs. 52,264 crore for the internal security establishment for the next fiscal. The Home Ministry’s security budget for the current year is Rs. 43,700 crore.

Much of it will go to pay salaries of central security personnel fighting terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir, Northeast and Maoists.
