Regarding the Budget, the Chief Minister emphasized, “Our government is committed to functioning in accordance with the public's aspirations. We assure you that the Budget will serve every section of society.”
In a statement shared on the social media platform X, she mentioned: “In democracy, the public is sovereign; the thoughts and suggestions of our esteemed citizens guide us. Your involvement fortifies our determination to serve. The interests of the public are our top priority, and we pledge to pursue ongoing enhancements and effective execution. Only with your support and trust can we achieve new milestones.”

Encouraging citizens to join Prime Minister Narendra Modi in enhancing the system and participating in nation-building, she remarked, “Do not blame the authorities for inadequate facilities or unsanitary conditions around you. You can take initiative in cleaning and beautifying the city, similar to how PM Modi himself took action.”
She urged every Delhi resident to play their part in beautifying Delhi, cleaning the Yamuna, and combating air pollution.
