New Delhi: Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today said Delhi government will begin the repair work in colonies where the families of 1984 riot victims reside in different areas of the national capital.
The Chief Minister has directed Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board (DUSIB) to immediately begin repair in eight localities.
The decision was taken in a meeting chaired by the CM and attended by the heads of various departments of Delhi government.
"Delhi government will provide funds for this work and the initial estimate is Rs 10 crore, which will be revised on the basis of the actual estimate," said a senior government official.
