The Ayushman Arogya Mandirs and Atal Canteen are fantastic initiatives. Quality healthcare close to home and affordable meals are what common people need the most. Hope these services are maintained properly in the long run.

Rs 100 crore is a huge amount. While development is welcome, I hope there is complete transparency in the tendering and spending. We've seen too many projects where funds disappear and the work is sub-standard. The CM must ensure accountability.

Renovating 'chaupals' and community centres is so important for our social fabric. These are the spaces where festivals are celebrated and neighbours connect. Good to see cultural infrastructure getting attention alongside roads and gyms.

As a resident of Delhi for 5 years, the pace of development has definitely picked up. The new roads and parks will improve the quality of life. Hope other constituencies get similar attention soon.

The focus on healthcare and nutrition is praiseworthy. But I sincerely hope the government also tackles the air pollution and waste management issues with the same urgency. Development should be holistic and sustainable. 🌱
