Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Sunday reaffirmed the government's commitment to revive all monuments in Delhi. Speaking at an event in Mehrauli, she emphasised that her administration would continue to uphold Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of 'Vikas Bhi, Virasat Bhi' (development along with heritage).

Highlighting the city's historical significance, Gupta said the government has already revived four monuments and intends to expand such efforts across Delhi. "We are reviving all monuments in Delhi. We have revived four such monuments. Our aim is to dedicate Delhi's monumental history to the people of Delhi," she told reporters.

The event, held as part of the ongoing 'Seva Pakhwada', showcased paintings and artworks inspired by the life and journey of Prime Minister Modi. Praising the artists, the CM said, "It is the vision of our artists that they see India's future in PM Narendra Modi. Every painting speaks volumes about India, its current position in the world, and its future.

"I am glad that as part of the 'Seva Pakhwada' so many artists have gathered here and shown their talent and brought to life events and incidents related to the life of PM Modi. PM Modi's vision of 'Vikas Bhi, Virasat Bhi' is the theme of today's event," Gupta added.

Meanwhile, ahead of the implementation of the new Drainage Master Plan for which Rs 57,000 crores have been allocated, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Friday took a jibe at the former Aam Aadmi Party government, stating that they never "cared" about the people.

The Delhi CM promised prioritisation in implementation of the plan in areas suffering major drainage issues and said, "After 50 years, since 1974, a government with serious vision and thought made Delhi's Master Drainage Plan. Waterlogging occurred everywhere, and many people died as a result... The previous governments never cared about it. On a very serious note, our government has conducted thorough work and planning on it, and we will implement it soon... It will be implemented in phases, and in areas with the most severe problems, we will prioritise implementation." (ANI)
