New Delhi, Apr 16 (PTI) Delhi Lieutenant Governor Taranjit Singh Sandhu on Thursday inspected Swabhiman Apartments developed by the DDA at Ashok Vihar area and directed authorities to address the concerns of residents.
Last year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated 1,675 newly constructed flats by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) for the dwellers of Jhuggi Jhopri clusters and handed over keys at the residential apartments.
“In the spirit of citizen-centric governance, I interacted with residents who expressed their gratitude to the Prime Minister for these homes. They also highlighted concerns such as seepage, garbage mismanagement, irregular lift functioning in some towers, and issues caused by miscreants,” LG Sandhu said in a post on X.
Maintaining the integrity of such projects is essential to our mission of building a Viksit Dilli and Viksit Bharat. While this project is a model of transformative infrastructure, it must not be allowed to deteriorate due to poor maintenance, Sandhu added.
“Taking immediate cognisance of these issues, he issued clear directions to DDA, the district administration, and the Delhi Police to address the concerns on priority and ensure that the residents receive a safe, clean, and well-maintained living environment,” DDA said in its statement.
The project is one of the flagship housing initiatives under the Centre’s scheme of “Jahan Jhuggi, Wahin Makan”, DDA added. PTI SSM SSM HIG HIG
