Dhami and Gupta join in Haridwar to inaugurate Vatsalya Ganga Ashray, praising social service.

Haridwar, June 1

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami inaugurated the Vatsalya Ganga Ashray in Haridwar on Sunday. Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta was also present on this occasion.

On this occasion, the Chief Minister also prayed for the happiness and prosperity of all the people of the state. He offered prayers to the river Ganga. Mahamandaleshwar Parmanand Maharaj was also present.

Chief Minister Dhami said, "The divine work of giving new life to destitute daughters under the leadership of Sadhvi Ritambhara Ji is a strong symbol of hope, compassion and reconstruction in the society."

He said that the lives of many daughters have changed in a positive direction due to his project. This is truly an inspiring example of social service.

CM Dhami and Delhi CM Rekha Gupta offered prayers to the Ganga river in Haridwar.

Dhami further said, "Delhi CM Rekha Gupta has come to take God's blessings. Tomorrow, she will visit Kedarnath and Badrinath. I extend best wishes to her...After 27 years, a government has been elected in Delhi which is working for the development of Delhi..."

Earlier, Delhi CM Rekha Gupta on Sunday heaped praise on CM Dhami for his developmental work in the state, which she said serves as an inspiration for the national capital.

Addressing the gathering during her visit to Haridwar, Gupta said, "... The work done by CM Dhami in Uttarakhand is an inspiration for Delhi. Pushkar Singh Dhami extensively campaigned in Delhi during the Vidhan Sabha elections, interacting with the voters who hail from Uttarakhand..."

Hours after taking a dip in the Ganges, Delhi Chief Minister asserted that her government is continuously working towards cleaning the Yamuna river in the national capital.

Addressing a public rally in Haridwar, Gupta said, "Yesterday, we performed the aarti of Yamuna ji in Delhi and today I took a dip in Ganga ji. Today, I want the blessings of all the saints sitting on this stage that one day we will be able to take a dip in Yamuna ji. Yamuna is dry; there is no water in it, and the water that is there is very dirty. I have to work continuously to achieve this goal of cleaning the Yamuna River..."

Great initiative by CM Dhami! Supporting destitute daughters is truly noble work. Haridwar is the perfect place for such an ashram given its spiritual significance. Hope this inspires more social welfare projects across India 🇮🇳

While I appreciate the focus on social work, I wish politicians would spend equal energy on environmental issues. Cleaning Ganga and Yamuna should be top priority - mere aarti and dips won't solve pollution. Action speaks louder than prayers!

Good to see Delhi CM visiting Uttarakhand. Cross-state collaboration is important for development. Maybe they can share best practices for river cleaning projects. Yamuna needs urgent attention - hope they walk the talk 🙏

As someone from Uttarakhand, I'm proud of CM Dhami's work. The ashray project is much needed in our hills where many girls face difficulties. But I hope they ensure proper implementation - many schemes look good on paper only.

Why so much focus on religious events when inaugurating social projects? The ashray work is commendable, but mixing politics and religion always makes me uncomfortable. Let's keep development secular and inclusive.
