Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Wednesday directed officials to remove all the posters and hoardings from the metro pillars during inspection.
She said, “Nobody has the right to destroy public property. If we need clean and beautiful Delhi, everyone’s support is required here.”
She further said that metro pillars are the beauty of Delhi and we should not put posters and hoardings on them. “No one should spoil government property,” she added.
The chief minister was seen removing posters from the pillars herself during the inspection.
Meanwhile she also directed officials to look for proper shelters for stray cows which sometimes get hurt during traffic and come out on the flyovers.
The direction came after Gupta’s convoy suddenly stopped and narrowly escaped an accident after a herd of cattle appeared on the Haiderpur Flyover.
CM inspected the situation after getting out of the car and directed officials to find out proper shelter for the stray animals. The traffic behind could be seen stopped due to this incident on the flyover.
Yesterday, The BJP government presented its first Budget. The five-day session began on Monday morning with a traditional “kheer” ceremony. This Budget, reflecting the BJP’s commitment to fulfilling its promises made during the run-up to the Delhi election in February, laid a key focus on healthcare, education and road repair.
Delhi government’s Budget for the upcoming financial year is Rs 1 lakh crore, nearly 31 per cent higher than AAP’s last budget in the capital.
A key focus of the BJP’s welfare promises during the election was healthcare. While AAP launched its Sanjeevani Yojana offering free medical care to citizens above the age of 60, the BJP focused on the Ayushman Bharat Yojana to provide affordable healthcare.
Additionally, the party made several promises in the education sector, as well as in providing benefits related to cooking gas cylinders.
