Rekha Gupta, along with her ministerial colleagues and BJP leaders, attended the evening aarti on the banks of the Yamuna, last week. Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva was also present at the religious event at Vasudev Ghat.
“During the aarti of Maa Yamuna, we reaffirmed our commitment to cleaning the river. We will allocate the necessary resources, and it remains our priority,” Gupta said.
Sachdeva too emphasised the party’s promise, stating, “Maa Yamuna has blessed us. The BJP-led Delhi government will ensure the river is cleaned.”
