CM launches Jan Kalyan Shivirs at 42 locations across national Capital
Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Thursday inaugurated a Jan Kalyan Shivir at the MCD Community Hall in Sandesh Vihar, Shalimar Bagh. The camp was the first of 42 such welfare camps being held across all districts of Delhi from June 18 to 20, designed to bring Central and Delhi Government scheme benefits under one roof for citizens. Meanwhile, Delhi Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta separately inaugurated a parallel camp in Rohini.
The camps run daily from 10 am to 5 pm at all 42 locations and have been organised under the theme “12 Years of Trust, Development and Public Welfare.” MLA from Tri Nagar Tilak Ram Gupta was present at the Sandesh Vihar launch.
The Chief Minister said that earlier, Delhi residents had to visit different offices to access the benefits of various schemes, with many facilities remaining unavailable to them for years. She said the present Government is now reaching people at their doorstep with what she described as a resolve of service, convenience, and solutions, under a double-engine Government and a triple-engine system dedicated to public service.
Eligible beneficiaries can access information, assistance, and registration facilities for various schemes from different departments at a single location. Separate counters have been set up by departments, including the Delhi Jal Board and the House Tax Department, to provide assistance without causing inconvenience. The Chief Minister appealed to residents to visit their nearest Jan Kalyan Shivir with the required documents and avail themselves of the benefits on offer.
The camps offer access to a wide range of services. These include Pink Cards, Ration Cards, e-Shram Cards, Jan Dhan Accounts, the Lakhpati Bitiya Yojana, the PM-UDAY Scheme, the PM SVANidhi Scheme, Aadhaar registration, the Talent Hunt Hauslon Ki Udaan programme, the Rashtriya Vayoshri Yojana, House Tax services, information on the PM Surya Ghar Yojana for solar power, and loan facilities for MSMEs and industries. Saplings are being distributed under the Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam campaign. Assistance is also available for scholarships, higher education support, and caste certificates for Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe members, along with the Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana, the Widow Daughter Marriage Assistance Scheme, regularisation of Delhi Jal Board water connections under LPSC, record updates for widows and persons with disabilities, and issuance of Ayushman Cards for senior citizens above 70 and BPL card holders.
At the separate Rohini camp, inaugurated at Rana Pratap Sarvodaya Kanya Vidyalaya in Sector 5, Speaker Vijender Gupta said the camp reflects the government’s commitment to ensuring citizens can access welfare schemes without unnecessary procedural difficulties. He described the camp as a comprehensive service platform offering facilities related to ration cards, e-Shram cards, Jan Dhan accounts, the Lakhpati Didi Yojana, Ayushman Bharat, PM Ujjwala Yojana, PM Vishwakarma Yojana, disability welfare schemes, and pension-related services.
Gupta said such outreach programmes strengthen the connection between Government institutions and citizens, with special attention given to women, senior citizens, persons with disabilities, workers, entrepreneurs, and economically weaker sections so that no eligible beneficiary is left out. He urged residents of Rohini and adjoining areas to actively participate and take advantage of the services on offer.
Both camps will remain operational through June 20, running in parallel with 40 other locations across Delhi’s districts as part of the same coordinated outreach effort timed to coincide with the completion of 12 years of the Modi Government and reinforced by the Delhi government’s own welfare delivery push since taking office.
