Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta today said that the Delhi government will provide all necessary facilities to resettle people in their homes after the water level in the Yamuna River has begun to recede.
Talking to the media in New Delhi, the Delhi Chief Minister said, relief funds will be provided to all farmers who have suffered losses. She added that the Delhi government is committed to making all necessary arrangements and preparations to support the people.
“Delhi’s challenges are enormous, but any problem can be solved if the government, industry, and society work together. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) funds can help solve three of the Capital’s inherited challenges,” Ms. Gupta said at an event in Raj Niwas.
The CM appealed to private sector firms to adopt drains and establish small sewage treatment plants to prevent pollution from entering the Yamuna
During her interaction, Rekha Gupta assured the residents that there was no reason to worry as the floodwaters were receding. “This area is a part of the Yamuna floodplains and is a low-lying region. We had asked residents to move out, but they did not. This is why I thought of visiting the area. The only problem now is that electricity is out. The water should recede in one or two days.”
