Delhi Ministers Embrace Public Transport Amidst Austerity Drive

Delhi's government officials are turning to public transport as part of a new austerity drive championed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Tourism Minister Kapil Mishra has committed to using either public transport or just one official vehicle when necessary. His commitment seeks to align with Prime Minister Modi's emphasis on reduced dependencies on government transport.

Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, alongside her cabinet, is striving to set an example by heeding the Prime Minister's call and minimizing their use of official vehicles.

Education Minister Ashish Sood, following the trend, opted for the Metro on his inspection trip, symbolizing the administration's dedication to this sustainability-conscious initiative. The initiative is drawing increasing attention as Gupta's commitments underscore the government's drive towards responsible transport use.
