The Delhi Government will transfer Rs 5,000 in the bank account of each of auto, taxi and e-rickshaw drivers of the national Capital, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Thursday. However, he added that the process of money transfer may take at least a week as the Government has no bank account details of the intended beneficiaries.
Assuring them about fund transfer, Kejriwal said, “You all are my brothers, please have faith and patience.”
The Delhi Government has already provided the assistance of Rs 5,000 each to over 35,000 construction workers in the city. Widening its reach to the poor and daily wagers in Delhi, the Government has provided lunch and dinner to 6 lakh people across Delhi.
