Delhi Government Notifies New Slum Rehabilitation Policy 2026; Permanent Homes for Nearly 5 Lakh Slum-Dwelling Families Under ‘Jahan Jhuggi, Wahan Makan’

On the occasion of Diwali, the Rekha Gupta-led Delhi Government notified the Delhi Slum and Jhuggi Jhopri Relocation and Rehabilitation Policy, 2026, aimed at providing permanent and secure homes to eligible families in slum settlements across the capital. The policy is expected to benefit around 4 to 5 lakh families, covering nearly 20 lakh people. Eligible families will be provided 1-BHK units, with in-situ rehabilitation given priority, at the existing site or within a three-kilometre radius. Residential complexes will include schools, Anganwadi centres, healthcare facilities and playgrounds. Slums existing before January 1, 2025 will not be removed without alternative accommodation, families living independently on different floors may be considered for separate units, and eligible families with persons with disabilities will get priority for ground-floor units. Shared infrastructure and security will be maintained for five years from first allotment. Allotment will be through a computerised draw of lots, with a grievance redressal mechanism and a centralised GIS platform to prevent duplicate allotments. Under PPP redevelopment, developers must provide temporary housing, rental accommodation or rent assistance. CM Rekha Gupta said the aim is not merely to redevelop settlements but to give poor families a roof, dignity, security and better living facilities, inspired by PM Narendra Modi’s vision of Antyodaya and Garib Kalyan.

CM Rekha Gupta Leads Food Adulteration Crackdown; 7,000 kg of Unhygienic Khoya Destroyed at Mori Gate

Chief Minister Smt. Rekha Gupta personally visited the Mori Gate Khoya Market to oversee a major Food Safety Department operation, in which approximately 7,000 kg of unhygienic and foul-smelling khoya was seized and destroyed. She sought details from officials on every aspect of the operation and ensured the suspected products did not enter the food supply chain under any circumstances. During the drive, the department collected 44 surveillance samples, tested on the spot through the ‘Food Safety on Wheels’ mobile facility, of which 35 failed preliminary tests. Two additional samples were sent to a laboratory for detailed examination, along with samples relating to milk powder, vanaspati and binding substances. This was the department’s fourth operation at the market. Khoya destroyed so far includes 2,830 kg on September 4, 610 kg on September 8, 520 kg on October 23 and approximately 7,000 kg on November 3, taking the total to 10,660 kg. CM Rekha Gupta said there is no place in Delhi for those who seek to spoil the joy of Diwali through adulteration, and that those involved will face the strictest legal action regardless of how influential they are. She congratulated the Food Safety Department team and directed it to continue with the same promptness, stressing that the aim is not only to detect adulterated food but to effectively prevent it.
