印度财政部长西塔拉曼将新冠救济计划扩大到卫生和旅游领域

NEW DELHI: Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Monday announced a fresh set of measures to provide relief to a string of Covid-hit sectors, such as tourism and small businesses, apart from steps to boost health infrastructure, both in the private and public sector.

新德里：印度财政部长西塔拉曼周一宣布了一系列新措施，为旅游业和小企业等一系列受新冠肺炎疫情影响的行业提供救济，此外还采取了措施，促进私营和公共部门的卫生基础设施建设。

Her announcements were a mix of expansion of exsting steps, such as increasing the size of the Emergency Credit Line Guarantee Scheme (ECLGS) from Rs 3 lakh crore to Rs 4.5 lakh crore as the limit was being reached, and fresh measures.

她宣布的举措包括扩大现有措施，如在达到限额时，将紧急信贷额度担保计划(ECLGS)的规模从3万亿卢比增加到4.5万亿卢比，以及新的措施。

So far, over Rs 2.7 lakh crore loans have been sanctioned to 1.1 crore borrowers, based on the government guarantee, with Rs 2.1 lakh crore disbursed, financial services secretary Debasish Panda told reporters.

金融服务部秘书Debasish Panda对记者表示，到目前为止，基于政府担保，已经批准向1100万借款人发放超过2.7万亿卢比的贷款，其中2.1万亿卢比已支付。

Another Rs 1.1 lakh crore of loans, based on a similar mechanism, has been lined up. Of this, Rs 50,000 crore will be provided to the healthcare sector.

基于类似机制，另外1.1万亿卢比的贷款也已安排就绪。其中，5000亿卢比将提供给医疗保健部门。

Covid-hit sectors such as tourism will get Rs 60,000 crore loans at a maxmum 8.25%, with the list of sectors to be expanded over time, Sitharaman said.

西塔拉曼表示，旅游业等受疫情影响的行业将获得6000亿卢比贷款，最高贷款利率为8.25%，随着时间的推移，贷款范围还会扩大。

Welcoming the announcements, PM Modi indicated the fund marked for the health sector would be spent to boost healthcare facilities for children in under-served areas. “The measures will help to stimulate economic activities, boost production and exports and generate employment,” he tweeted.

莫迪总理对这些宣布表示欢迎，并表示，用于卫生部门的基金将用于改善服务不足地区儿童的医疗设施。他在推特上表示:“这些措施将有助于刺激经济活动，促进生产和出口，并创造就业。”

Tourism and hospitality sectors have for long been demanding support from the government, arguing that they have been hit hard as Covid has forced people to cut down travel. The Centre offered loans up to Rs 10 lakh to travel agents and Rs 1 lakh for registered tourist guides based on government guarantees.

长期以来，旅游和酒店行业一直要求政府提供支持，称由于新冠肺炎疫情迫使人们减少旅行，行业受到了严重打击。在政府担保的基础上，中央向旅行社提供了高达100万卢比的贷款，向注册导游提供了10万卢比的贷款。

it only means that the fuels prices will soar higher and the money will be allotted with extreme conditions which won't really reach those businesses who need the most

这只意味着燃料价格将飙升，资金将在极端条件下分配给那些最需要的企业

The PM is an extremely decent human being, who would never ask a lady minister to step down. However, I would truly truly hope the FM would voluntarily hand in her papers so the PM along with the FM can jointly pick a competent replacement.

总理是一个非常正派的人，他永远不会要求一位女部长下台。但是，我真心希望财政部长能主动提交辞呈，这样总理就可以挑选一位称职的替代者了。

No one believes what you say, as we all have experienced from time to times to this time since 2014 as what you are and how you blast jhumlas to fool people. Where is the account of previously announced 20L crore jhumla package? Reduce petrol price and skyrocketing price hikes.

没有人相信你说的话，自从2014年以来，我们都见识过你的所作所为，以及你是如何用谎言来愚弄人们。

之前宣布的2万亿卢比救济在哪里?

先降低汽油价格和飞涨的物价。

在莫迪领导下的印度，即便是新冠疫苗也可能是假的。大多数古吉拉特人都是没有良心的黑市商贩。
