Delhi Sets Sept. 17–Oct. 2 'Seva Pakhwara' to Launch 75 Welfare Projects

Chief Minister Rekha Gupta framed the drive as a tribute to Narendra Modi, a reply to disparaging remarks about his late mother.

Overview

  • The government scheduled the initiative to coincide with the nationwide observance of the prime minister’s birthday from September 17 to October 2.
  • Plans include inaugurating 150 Ayushman Arogya Mandirs, opening five major hospitals, and running an intensive sanitation drive branded 'Delhi ko Kude se Azadi'.
  • The fortnight will feature inaugurations, foundation stone-laying, and the start of long-pending works across education, housing, transport, and civic amenities.
  • Gupta said Opposition leaders have not apologised for the remarks in Bihar and described the service push as a public answer to that episode.
  • She emphasized that the effort is intended to deliver tangible benefits rather than serve as a ceremonial rollout, with implementation stressed as a priority.
