Thrilling residents of RK Puram, Chief Minister Rekha Gupta today inaugurated Rs 100 crore in cutting-edge infrastructure projects, promising a facelift for the vibrant South Delhi enclave. The event buzzed with anticipation, reflecting the area’s high expectations from its leader.
At the forefront are lush park makeovers, smart illumination systems, flood-resilient sewers, and versatile civic centers. In her keynote, Gupta reaffirmed priorities: ‘Development must reach every doorstep. RK Puram sets the benchmark for inclusive progress.’
Investment details paint a comprehensive picture—Rs 45 crore revitalizing 15 parks into recreational havens; Rs 22 crore modernizing drainage to handle peak rains; Rs 18 crore deploying IoT-based lighting for safety; and the rest enhancing community engagement spaces.
This proactive rollout contrasts with past delays under previous regimes, energizing BJP’s campaign narrative. Attendees, from students to retirees, lauded the vision. ‘Night walks will be safer now,’ enthused a jogger.
Implementation will leverage public-private partnerships for efficiency, with drone surveillance for quality checks. Expected outcomes include 25% greener cover, reduced commute hazards, and vibrant social hubs.
As Delhi grapples with expansion pressures, Rekha Gupta’s hands-on approach in RK Puram could inspire a replication blueprint. The launch not only upgrades hardware but also people’s trust in governance, paving the way for a resilient capital.
