AAP government committed to provide housing to poor: Satyendar Jain

New Delhi : Delhi Urban Development Minister Satyendar Jain on Friday said that his government is committed to provide homes to people belonging to poor sections of society.

“It is my endeavour to provide housing to the economically weaker sections of society, with all civic amenities. We aim to resettle the homeless so that no one is without shelter,” Jain told reporters while inspecting the land sites acquired by Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board (DUSIB) for constructing housing for the poor.

He also said that the Delhi government has focused on site rehabilitation of slums in Delhi.

“Relocation would be done only if there is a court order or if the encroached land is required for a specific public project,” he said.

Jain, who was accompanied by DUSIB CEO V.K. Jain, inspected the Bhalswa Dairy area and Raja Garden in north Delhi.

The DUSIB is primarily responsible for improving the quality of life of slum dwellers in Delhi. The Slum and JJ Department which was earlier part of MCD has now been transferred to DUSIB, where the Chief Minister is the chairperson.
