Former Delhi BJP President and MLA Vijender Gupta stated that after BJP's resounding victory in the Lok Sabha, the Kejriwal government continues to harass the residents of Delhi.First, there was the drinking water crisis, then the issues of waterlogging and drainage after rains, followed by traffic jams, and now a conspiracy is underway to render the Delhi Commission for Women, which safeguards women's rights, ineffective.Gupta has demanded the Lieutenant Governor to intervene in this serious matter and take immediate action to prevent the injustice being meted out to the distressed women of Delhi.Gupta pointed out that it is horrifying that the 181 Women's Helpline has been shut down. Due to negligence by the DCW, the helpline has been nonoperational for several days, symbolising the Delhi government's lack of empathy towards crimes against women and girls in the capital.For over 48 hours, survivors of rape and other crimes have been left without crucial support. The ministers and concerned officials of the Delhi government are accountable for this.Gupta mentioned that the revelations made by former Delhi Commission for Women Chairperson Swati Maliwal in her letter to Kejriwal reflect the distorted thinking of the Aam Aadmi Party.He noted that the financial crisis created by the Delhi government in the Commission is a grave matter.The payment of the third installment of the fiscal year 202324 and the first installment of the fiscal year 202425 has not been made. The funding shortage over the past six months has crippled the Commission.Gupta added that the massive cut of 10 crores in the Commission's budget threatens the closure of significant programmes. The removal of employees and unfilled vacancies further endanger the Commission's existence. The Delhi Commission for Women plays a critical role in assisting countless women in Delhi.
