Development in North-West Delhi gathers pace; CM Rekha Gupta presents one-year report card

New Delhi, February 27, 2026 : Delhi Chief Minister  Rekha Gupta visited North-West Delhi on Friday as part of her outreach programme, where she presented her government’s report card for its first year in office. Addressing residents of the parliamentary constituency, she said Delhi’s progress is no longer confined to advertisements; it is visible on the ground.

Taking a swipe at previous governments, the Chief Minister said the region had long been neglected. Over the past year, however, the BJP-led government has made a concrete beginning towards development, focusing on “Antyodaya to Gramodaya” to uplift the last person and strengthen rural communities.

She said that whenever she visits rural pockets such as Mundka, Bawana, Narela, Kirari and Sultanpur Majra, she feels as though she is among her own family. Describing her first year in office as a journey “from distress to transformation”, she noted that basic infrastructure, roads, water supply and sewerage have expanded at a rapid pace across the region.

According to the Chief Minister, new projects aimed at improving access to quality education and better healthcare are also being fast-tracked. The launch of development works worth ₹264 crore in the Mundka Assembly constituency, she said, marks a significant step forward for the area. She added that issues once considered permanent by previous administrations are now being addressed with long-term solutions.

The Chief Minister also made it clear that although some of the ten Assembly constituencies in North-West Delhi are represented by the Opposition, her government remains guided by the principle of “people above party” and “nation first”. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, and inspired by the ideals of Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya and Nana Deshmukh, she said the government is committed to ensuring that rural Delhi receives the same opportunities as the rest of the city.

Thanking residents for their support, the Chief Minister said the progress achieved so far has been made possible by the power of every single vote. She added that while the direction towards ‘Viksit Delhi’ has been set in the first year, the next four years will bring complete transformation to the region.

Among those present were North-West Delhi MP Yogendra Chandolia, Delhi Cabinet Minister Ravindra Indraj Singh, Mangolpuri MLA Raj Kumar Chauhan, Rithala MLA Kulwant Rana, Narela MLA Rajkaran Khatri, Badli MLA Aheer Deepak Chaudhary and Mundka MLA Gajendra Dalal, along with senior BJP leaders, party workers and local residents.
