Payment of monthly salaries matches Recurrent Expenditure — Personal Emoluments; Construction of a new interstate highway and bridge matches Capital Expenditure — Infrastructure; Purchase of office printing paper matches Recurrent Expenditure — Overhead Expenses; Procurement of specialized medical equipment matches Capital Expenditure — Plant and Equipment.
