Rekha Gupta Government Redraws Delhi’s Development Map
From Neglect to Growth: Delhi Steps Into a New Era of Infrastructure
Delhi is no longer just the capital of India — it is rapidly emerging as a model city of modern urban development. For years, the city struggled with broken roads, waterlogging, collapsing sewer lines, unplanned colonies, and unfinished projects. Today, that phase is being replaced by decisive, ground-level action and permanent solutions. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Smt. Rekha Gupta, the Delhi Government has sent a clear message:
“Development will no longer remain on paper — it will be visible on the ground.”
In a short span of time, multiple Assembly constituencies across Delhi have witnessed the launch of large-scale infrastructure projects worth hundreds of crores, all designed with one goal — to make daily life safer, smoother, and more dignified for citizens.
Rs 700 Crore Special Budget for Jhuggi Area Development
In a first-of-its-kind initiative, the Delhi Government has launched a `700 crore special budget dedicated to improving living conditions in jhuggi settlements across all Assembly constituencies.
This budget is being used to develop Drainage systems, Internal roads, Toilets and sanitation units, Parks and community spaces, Health services and Community centres.
The Chief Minister’s clear commitment is:
“Jhuggis will not be removed — lives within jhuggis will be transformed.” The objective is simple — ensure dignity, basic amenities, and inclusion for every family in Delhi’s informal settlements.
A New Vision for Delhi
Chief Minister Rekha Gupta reaffirmed that the government’s purpose is not limited to building infrastructure, but bringing real change in citizens’ everyday lives. The vision is to shape Delhi into a city that is Free from waterlogging, Smooth in mobility, Clean and hygienic,Modern in infrastructure and Citizen-centric in governance.
Delhi will not pause. Delhi will progress.
