Rs 700 Crore Slum Upgrade: Gupta Slams AAP, Vows New Homes

Chief Minister Gupta announced a Rs 700 crore package for slum redevelopment in the state on Sunday, July 27, 2025. This initiative aims to provide housing for residents facing displacement.

The announcement follows accusations of inaction and misinformation spread by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). Gupta directly blamed AAP for delays in the crucial railway expansion project.

The CM specifically addressed concerns regarding the project’s impact on slum dwellers. She pledged full support and assured ongoing negotiations with railway authorities for smooth rehabilitation.

This substantial allocation signifies a proactive approach to urban renewal. However, the success hinges on efficient implementation and transparent engagement with affected communities. The upcoming weeks will be crucial in gauging the effectiveness of the plan and the government’s ability to deliver on its promises, particularly given the ongoing political sparring.
