On the occasion of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s birthday, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Thursday (September 17, 2026) inaugurated ‘Namo Shramik Seva Kendra’ and a rest area for gig workers in Shalimar Bagh to provide services under one roof for workers.
She also took part in a mega blood donation camp, launched an organ donation campaign and pledged to donate her organs. The Chief Minister took part in the ‘Aashirwad Ka Diya’ under which 1.25 lakh earthen lamps were lit to illuminate the Kartavya Path.
