Delhi Chief Minister Atishi and her cabinet ministers conducted road inspections across different city areas on Tuesday, aiming to guarantee a pothole-free national capital by Diwali.
Atishi, accompanied by local MLA Praveen Kumar, checked the conditions of Ring Road at Sarai Kale Khan, among other key routes. In a social media post, she criticized the BJP's attempt to hinder road repair efforts by incarcerating her predecessor, Arvind Kejriwal.
Atishi emphasized that under Kejriwal's guidance, PWD officials must coordinate with NCRTC to repair significantly damaged roads, such as the stretch between Ring Road and Nizamuddin Railway Station. Meanwhile, other cabinet ministers inspected and issued repair instructions for various roads in their jurisdictions, aiming to complete the projects before Diwali.
