Since the PM Modi took office in May 2014, between the months of June and November he spent ₹77 cr on air travel in a matter of only 6 months! Unfortunately, the bills have only been processed for 2014 till now, so we don’t know the full figure of the total 19 flights PM Modi has taken.
Ex-PM Manmohan Singh has spent a total of ₹794.8 4cr which though seems to be a lot, when compared to his 10-year term in office brings it to about ₹79.5 cr per year – a figure that Modi has surpassed in just half a year. In his first 6 months, Singh only spend ₹30.45 cr on flights. Ex-BJP PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee travelled abroad only 19 times in 5 years, amounting a much smaller total expenditure of ₹144.34 cr or about ₹14.4 cr per 6 months.
