New Delhi [India], April 10 (ANI): Delhi Minister Ashish Sood visited Pankh Road on Thursday in his Assembly constituency Janakpuri and said that all the departments are working together for the betterment of Delhi.
"Under Rekha Gupta's government, all the departments are working together for the betterment of Delhi. Here, the government is working with PWD, Police, and Municipal Corporation for cleanliness, beautification and garbage disposal on Pankh Road," Sood told reporters.
Ashish Sood visited Pankh Road in his Assembly constituency Janakpuri and spoke with relevant officials of various departments about cleanliness, beautification and other issues.

Earlier today, the Delhi Chief Minister, along with Delhi Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena and Minister Parvesh Verma, inspected the supplementary drain at Wazirabad in the national capital.
The Delhi government has assigned the Flood and Irrigation Department a special responsibility to ensure the timely desilting of drains.
The drain (Wazirabad) is one of the major ones flowing into the Yamuna and is, hence, crucial in cleaning the river.
Notably, after the BJP won with a historic mandate of 48 of 70 Delhi Assembly seats, the cleaning process for the Yamuna River was taken up, and trash skimmers, weed harvesters, and dredge utility vehicles were deployed to the river on February 16.
Pollution in the Yamuna was a key issue during the Delhi Assembly elections, with political parties targeting each other over pollution, encroachments, and flood management. BJP attacked AAP and accused it of failing to deliver on promises of cleaning the Yamuna.
Apart from this, the BJP mentioned cleaning the Yamuna as one of the top priorities in its manifesto.
Since then, the Delhi Government has requested the Territorial Army to safeguard the river from dumping, mining, encroachment, and theft.
This decision aims to preserve the river in its natural form and achieve the government's target of cleaning the Yamuna within three years.
The Territorial Army's Ecological Task Force is capable of protecting the Yamuna River, and their deployment is anticipated in the coming months. (ANI)
