Delhi Minister Kapil Mishra conducted an inspection of the ongoing road-strengthening work at Khajuri Chowk on Sunday evening. This move follows the Chief Minister’s directive on February 22 to address traffic congestion and improve road conditions in the area.
Speaking to ANI, Mishra emphasized the government’s commitment to enhancing Delhi’s infrastructure. “The public should not face any inconvenience due to traffic at Khajuri Chowk. We are all working together to improve the condition of Delhi’s roads. I have come here to inspect the progress and ensure the work is being done efficiently,” he said.
Mishra also criticized the previous Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government, blaming it for the deteriorated state of the city’s roads. He pointed out widespread issues like broken roads, potholes, and waterlogging across the national capital. “Arvind Kejriwal’s government left the roads in a terrible state. Everywhere you look, roads are either broken, dusty, or riddled with potholes. Waterlogging is another major issue. Today, all Cabinet ministers are out on the streets to assess these problems firsthand. There’s no doubt that officials must fix these issues,” he asserted.
Further targeting AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal, Mishra accused him of fostering a culture of neglect. “This culture of not doing the work will end now. Officials across departments must understand that under PM Modi’s guidance and CM Rekha Gupta’s leadership, development work is a priority,” he stated.
Kapil Mishra currently holds key portfolios in the Delhi government, including law and justice, labour, employment, art and culture, language, and tourism. His active involvement in infrastructure projects signals the administration’s focus on improving the city’s essential services and public amenities.
