Delhi Government Notifies 1,000 Acres of Southern Ridge as Reserved Forest; Total Protected Ridge Area to Reach 13,000 Acres

The Delhi Government, led by Chief Minister Smt. Rekha Gupta, has approved the notification of around 1,000 acres of additional land in the Southern Ridge as Reserved Forest under Section 20 of the Indian Forest Act, 1927 — taking the total notified Ridge area to around 13,000 acres and marking a significant step towards strengthening Delhi's ecological security, green cover and air quality. CM Rekha Gupta said the Delhi Ridge an extension of the Aravalli mountain range and the capital's most important natural green area serves as a green protective shield directly linked to Delhi's clean air, biodiversity, temperature regulation and environmental security. The Southern Ridge, regarded as Delhi's 'green lung' and a carbon sink, forms a critical ecological link at the northern end of the Aravallis. The government is working to provide permanent statutory protection to all eligible Ridge areas while simultaneously undertaking scientific ecological restoration with special emphasis on native species promotion and invasive species management. The Chief Minister said the long-pending process of Ridge notification has been prioritised and accelerated by her government, with the Delhi Ridge Management Board constituted in 2026 to oversee conservation, restoration, afforestation and habitat management. She reaffirmed that protecting nearly 13,000 acres of the Ridge is not merely about safeguarding land but a commitment to protecting Delhi's air, biodiversity and environmental balance - ensuring that development and environmental protection move forward together in the capital.

Delhi Government Expands Mukhyamantri Khel Protsahan Yojana; Young Athletes to Receive ₹2,000 Monthly Support Under New Grassroots Training Assistance Scheme

The Delhi Cabinet, chaired by Chief Minister Smt. Rekha Gupta, approved the introduction of the 'Grassroot Training Support Assistance' component under the Mukhyamantri Khel Protsahan Yojana, providing eligible young athletes who regularly train at Delhi government sports centres and stadiums with financial assistance of ₹2,000 per month covering nutrition, local travel, basic equipment and medical needs to ensure uninterrupted training from the early stages. The assistance will cover up to 25% of regularly enrolled trainees at each government sports centre, with a maximum of 100 athletes per stadium — extendable to 150 at larger facilities — across the Under-14, Under-17, Under-19 and Under-21 age groups. Beneficiaries will be selected based on sporting performance and potential, regular attendance of at least 80% and financial need, with quarterly reviews of performance, attendance and discipline to ensure assistance reaches the most deserving athletes. CM Rekha Gupta said the initiative complements the existing MKPY framework under which top school-level athletes receive up to ₹5 lakh annually, elite athletes representing Delhi and India receive up to ₹20 lakh, and international competition expenses are reimbursed up to ₹2 lakh per athlete. Education and Sports Minister Ashish Sood reaffirmed that no talented athlete in Delhi should be forced to abandon their sporting dream due to financial constraints - declaring it the government's commitment to building a stronger, sports-rich Delhi in line with PM Modi's vision of 'Viksit Bharat.'

Delhi to Establish Its Own State Disaster Response Force

Chief Minister Smt. Rekha Gupta chaired a high-level meeting with NDRF Director General Shri Piyush Anand and senior officials at the Delhi Secretariat, announcing that the Delhi government will establish its own State Disaster Response Force a battalion of up to 1,100 personnel functioning under the state government to ensure rapid deployment, effective relief operations and minimisation of loss of life and property during natural or man-made disasters. CM Rekha Gupta said setting up an SDRF in Delhi had been a long-standing requirement, with most states in the country already having their own forces, and the absence of one in a densely populated metropolitan city like Delhi being a critical gap that previous governments failed to address. The NDRF will provide specialised training to SDRF personnel and assist with procurement of equipment suited to Delhi's geographical conditions, while Fire Department staff and Civil Defence volunteers will also receive training to ensure better inter-agency coordination during disasters. The Chief Minister also directed officials to provide land in Central Delhi, North Delhi and South Delhi to NDRF for stationing its battalion, and instructed departments to share a complete inventory of disaster management equipment for immediate availability in emergencies reaffirming the government's commitment to not just responding after disasters but ensuring Delhi is fully prepared and equipped in advance.
