Delhi Government Approves Rs 728-Crore Upgrade for Trans‑Yamuna

A separate plan will build a modern Alipur rehabilitation complex for nearly 700 children.

Overview

  • Chief Minister Rekha Gupta chaired a Trans‑Yamuna Area Development Board meeting at the Delhi Secretariat that cleared Rs 728 crore, with Kapil Mishra and chairman Arvinder Singh Lovely attending, and pledged no funding constraints.
  • Priority works target road repairs, drainage upgrades, waterlogging hotspots and public amenities, with orders to complete critical fixes before the monsoon.
  • The package includes tourism-linked projects and will be executed by the Municipal Corporation of Delhi and other agencies across 16 Trans‑Yamuna assembly constituencies.
  • Gupta accused the previous Aam Aadmi Party government of rendering the board inactive, saying development in the region had nearly halted during its tenure.
  • The government also confirmed an integrated Alipur facility on roughly eight acres for children in conflict with the law, designed for about 700 residents under the Juvenile Justice framework with a focus on rehabilitation.
