In a statement, the chief minister exuded confidence that the Union Budget will also support the goal of building a developed Delhi. She noted that the Central government is actively involved in several important projects in the city.
Projects of the development of sewage treatment facilities and the cleansing of the Yamuna are receiving central aid. Furthermore, the Central government continues to contribute financially to the development of future phases of the Delhi Metro.
According to Gupta, the modern transport infrastructure of the capital is being strengthened by the Central government's collaboration with the Delhi government on Delhi Metro projects, and the Centre is consistently supporting the city's development.
