Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has answered many questions in a special conversation with ABP News. In this sequence, when he was asked that if you had to bring any one leader from Aam Aadmi Party to BJP, then who would it be? On this question, CM Rekha Gupta said that why all people are invited, those who think of Nation First, who are connected to the country and want to work for the country can join our party.

On this, when he was asked whether Arvind Kejriwal ji is also invited? On this, CM Gupta said, “The interest of the country is not in his thinking at all.” Those who are interested in the welfare of the country can come. On this he was again asked whether all the other old things would be forgiven? On this, CM Gupta said, “National interest cannot come first in his thinking.” 11 years of corruption and sin are tied to him. If he had not been like that, he would not have been sitting in Punjab today. Wherever Maya is visible, they build palaces.

How are Rekha Gupta government’s relations with bureaucracy?

On the question asked about the government’s relationship with bureaucracy, Chief Minister Rekha Gupta said, “Arvind Kejriwal never got along well with the officials nor with his colleagues working in his party. I feel that Kejriwal did not get along well with his guru, Anna Hazare Saheb. I can say this much that we have given space to our officers and recognized their ability to work. Both officers and leaders work together like the wheels of a car.

He further said that the car can run only when both the people give their input equally and make policies and implement them with hard work. Our Delhi officers are working very well and smiling. They are listening to us 100 percent, that is why we have been able to do so much work in a year.

What did CM Rekha Gupta say about Sheeshmahal?

CM Rekha Gupta was also asked questions regarding Sheeshmahal. He was asked that you had said that Sheesh Mahal will be opened for the people of Delhi. A year has passed and there is still no idea when the door there will open? On this the Chief Minister said, “The property of Sheeshmahal has become very expensive.” Right now Kejriwal Saheb has taken away the toilet seats. Who knows what other damage will be caused by opening it. We are looking for a solution to ensure proper recovery of the public money invested.

CM further said, “You have brought such a white elephant that it is neither moving forward nor going backward.” What to do with it is a question in itself. If you have any suggestion please give. On this, a senior journalist of ABP News said that if it is so beautiful then they should have made it a guest house, people will come and stay. On this the CM said, “This is a good idea, this time I will discuss your suggestion in my cabinet.” The guest house can be opened for the people of Delhi.

Youth died due to negligence of Delhi Jal Board – Devendra Yadav

Delhi Pradesh Congress Committee President Devendra Yadav said that the bike rider fell straight into the pit in the dark of night. There was no barricading, no warning signs. This death occurred completely due to the negligence of Delhi Jal Board. If barricading had been installed, a soldier would not have lost his life.

Last year, 89 deaths occurred in water-filled pits and drains. More than 1600 lives were lost in road accidents. 11 people also died in the monsoon of 2025.

CM should dismiss the responsible officers- Congress

Delhi government is preparing to provide big relief to women of economically weaker section (EWS) on the occasion of Holi. According to sources, the government may provide free LPG cylinders to women of EWS families on the occasion of Holi festival in March. An important proposal in this regard has been approved in the Delhi Cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Tuesday (January 20) morning.

The outline of this scheme was discussed in detail in the cabinet meeting and in-principle approval has been given to implement it. Under the scheme, women from EWS families holding ration cards will be given free gas cylinders during Holi and Diwali. The government believes that this will provide direct relief to poor families in times of inflation.

The plan has been a part of the election promise

It is noteworthy that Bharatiya Janata Party had promised to provide free LPG cylinders to EWS families on the occasion of Holi and Diwali in its manifesto for Delhi Assembly elections.

Apart from this, a promise was also included to provide gas to economically weaker families at a concessional rate of Rs 500 per cylinder throughout the year. After coming to power, the government included this scheme among the priority projects of its first 100 days.

It will cost the government about Rs 300 crore

According to sources, the government is expected to spend approximately Rs 300 crore on implementing this scheme. Officials say that the beneficiaries will be identified on the basis of ration cards, so that the benefits of the scheme reach the right people and there are no irregularities.

The BJP government has already fulfilled some of its election promises after coming to power. These include the implementation of the Centre’s Ayushman Bharat health insurance scheme in Delhi and opening of Atal Canteen to provide food to the needy at just Rs 5. The government says that the free gas cylinder scheme is also a part of this series.

Good news may be received before Holi

If everything goes according to plan, then before Holi, women from EWS families can get the gift of free gas cylinders. This will reduce the expenses of poor families on festival occasions and it will become a little easier to manage the kitchen budget.
