New Delhi, March 9 : Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has said his government has adopted a women-centric development approach to provide relief to the working women.
The Chief Minister said on Monday while addressing a gathering of women on the occasion of International Women’s Day.
The event was organsied by Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) at India Habitat Centre.
Appreciating the efforts of DCW, Kejriwal said that in the past five years the commission has rescued several women who were in distress.
“Almost all the policies of the Delhi government in the last six years have been women-centric, aiming to provide some relief to women in light of the inflation and economic crisis. Policies like free water, free electricity and free bus-ride are examples. Keeping women’s safety and security in mind, we have installed CCTV cameras and street lights in every nook and corner of the city,” he said.
