Dangerous populism or fresh culture of freebies !!!

Less than 48 hours since AAP took charge in Delhi and they have already delivered on their biggest poll promise ‪#‎FreeWaterForDelhi‬

Really???
700 litres of water to every household in Delhi with "meters". What about those lakhs who don't have one?
What about people who get water via tankers..do they not need water?
Actually they need it more !!! meter wale can obviously afford it !!!
Hope he gonna do something for them as well, in coming days..

Also if a big joint family consumes 701 litres, they won't get any free water...they need to pay for entire amount consumed if they go above free level. Did he mention terms & conditions during campaign???

What I don't like about AAP is the unplanned haste in which this decision is taken. Looks more populist rather than a well planned policy....dangerous populism or fresh culture of freebies !!!

BTW few months back a younger CM distributed free Laptops which were re-sold by the beneficiaries ...

Wouldn't it have been more logical to fix corruption 1st, & then reduce cost by passing benefits to consumer?

What I like about Modi is ...
Modi hasn't taken the easy route, promising free water or power in his rallies. His only promise is development, governance and jobs, which he has delivered in Gujarat already !!!
