The second phase is nearing completion with projects worth Rs 64,000 crore, and Rs 24,000 crore worth of projects will be carried out in the third phase. This network of roads is set to become the lifeline of Delhi,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking on the city\u2019s infrastructure, she said that the entire contribution to the metro comes from the central government, and without the rapidly running metro in Delhi, the city could not function as it does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe central government\u2019s colleges and schools in Delhi are a major achievement in the education sector. The previous government had done nothing to advance the future of Delhi\u2019s children, but today, from KG to PG, efforts are continuously underway to provide the best infrastructure and education,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Criticizing the previous government in Delhi, Gupta said that the Kejriwal government kept making false promises about removing the garbage heaps. \u201cToday, the public has removed them from Delhi. The three garbage heaps, which were 60-65 meters high, have been reduced to 30-40 meters, and by March 2026, the Okhla garbage heap will be completely eliminated. The disposal of the others will also be completed on time,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She also said that the biggest challenge was cleaning Yamuna river for which the government has allocated Rs 9000 crore in funds. \u201cThe results are visible as work is progressing rapidly,\u201d the chief minister added. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gupta also informed that approval has been given for laying new sewer lines, new water lines, and making the system decentralized. Soon, a noticeable difference will be seen in the Yamuna\u2019s water quality. \u201cWe are reviving 38 old sewage treatment plants (STPs), of which 16 have already been revived,\u201dshe said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the central government completed 11 years under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta highlighted the achievements of the government stating that this is the first government in the history of India that enjoys the trust of every citizen with the belief that \u2018Modi hai to mumkin hai\u2019.
