"The trust of the people is our real strength. Their voice determines the direction of our policies. The Delhi government is vigilant, sensitive and fully committed to every public issue," the X post read.

In another social media post regarding the Jansunvai, she wrote, "The real power of public service is direct communication with the public. Today, during the public hearing, I talked to citizens face-to-face and listened to their views with full sensitivity. Every complaint, every suggestion is not just information for the government - it is a responsibility. Instructions were given to the officials on the spot regarding solution of the problems. Our resolve is clear - to meet people's expectations and strengthen their trust."
