Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta courageously resumed her Jan Sunwai public hearing program at her camp office on Raj Niwas Marg, just two weeks after surviving a shocking attack during a similar event. The session, which began at 8 AM, saw residents from across Delhi approach the Chief Minister to voice their grievances and seek assistance, with Gupta attentively addressing each individual’s concerns from a designated chair, facilitated by a microphone system.

The event was marked by stringent security measures following the August 20 incident, where a man from Rajkot, Gujarat, attacked Gupta during a Jan Sunwai at the Mukhya Mantri Jan Sewa Sadan. Police personnel, including female officers, formed a protective inner ring around the Chief Minister, while participants were thoroughly frisked with metal detectors and monitored via CCTV cameras to ensure safety. The heightened security underscored the administration’s commitment to preventing any further incidents while maintaining public access to the grievance redressal platform.

Gupta, undeterred by the recent assault, interacted directly with citizens, accepting their written applications and offering assurances of swift action. The Jan Sunwai program, a cornerstone of her administration’s outreach efforts, allows Delhiites to raise issues ranging from civic amenities to administrative delays. Gupta has also announced plans to expand the initiative across all 70 Assembly constituencies in Delhi, aiming to make governance more accessible and responsive.
