Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, along with Delhi’s Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa, on Tuesday attended a gas connection distribution program organized under the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY), providing free LPG connections to 5,100 eligible families in the national capital.

Addressing the gathering, CM Rekha Gupta said the Ujjwala Yojana has brought a significant change in the lives of economically weaker sections by ensuring access to clean cooking fuel. She highlighted that the scheme not only improves health outcomes for women and children but also promotes dignity and convenience in daily household life.

Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa stated that the Delhi government is committed to the effective implementation of central welfare schemes to ensure their benefits reach the grassroots level. He added that the distribution of LPG connections helps reduce dependence on traditional fuels like firewood and coal, thereby contributing to better environmental and public health conditions.

Officials present at the event said the beneficiaries were selected after due verification to ensure that the scheme reaches deserving families. The Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana, launched by the central government, aims to empower women from below-poverty-line households by providing them with clean and affordable cooking fuel.

The program concluded with the formal handover of gas connection documents to beneficiaries, marking another step toward inclusive development and improved living standards for thousands of families in Delhi.
