Delhi Govt rolls out infrastructure projects worth Rs 3 crore

Delhi Education Minister Ashish Sood on Monday inaugurated a series of civic development projects in west Delhi under the campaign ‘Rekha Sarkar Aapke Dwar — Jankalyan ke liye Tayyar’ (Government at Your Doorstep — Committed to Public Welfare).

At a total cost of Rs 3 crore, the government has taken up repair and upgradation work, replacing old sewer lines in Sitapuri, sewer line upgradation in Mahavir Enclave, installation of new HDPE water pipelines in Jeevan Park, replacement of old water lines in Uttam Nagar, and sewer improvement work from Dayal Sar Road to Shukr Bazaar.

These projects are aimed at benefiting residents, providing them cleaner water supply, better sewage management, and a healthier environment.

As the minister unveiled the projects, he highlighted the focus of the Rekha Gupta led Delhi Government on public welfare schemes. “Our focus in Janakpuri is to strengthen the basic infrastructure so that every citizen can enjoy clean, safe, and improved living conditions,” Sood added.

The Education Minister took a jibe at the previous government, particularly the AAP government for no significant progress in the civic infrastructure in the area. “We inherited broken roads, dilapidated sewer lines, erratic water supply, irregular electricity, and a mess of hanging wires. But our government does not believe in blame games. Our sole focus is on finding solutions,” Sood said.

During the event, Sood also sat in a mobile grievance redressal van stationed at Bal Udyan Road, where he listened to residents’ problems and recorded them in a register. He assured people that all local issues would be resolved promptly. For those unable to visit the MLA office, arrangements have been made to send the mobile van to their doorsteps.
