Kejriwal Proposes Joint Housing Scheme for Delhi Government Employees

The plan aims to provide affordable housing for sanitation workers and other employees, contingent on central government support for subsidized land.

Arvind Kejriwal has proposed a joint housing scheme with the central government to address housing challenges for Delhi's government employees, starting with sanitation workers.
Under the plan, the central government would provide subsidized land, and the Delhi government would construct affordable housing units.
Sanitation workers would pay for the homes in easy installments deducted from their salaries during their final years of service, ensuring ownership post-retirement.
Kejriwal has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, urging support for the scheme to benefit economically vulnerable groups and address post-retirement housing insecurity.
The initiative is part of a broader set of welfare-focused election promises by the Aam Aadmi Party ahead of the February 5 Delhi Assembly elections.
