Water Project to Benefit BSF Camp and Nearby Villages, Says CM Rekha Gupta

New Delhi, Oct 2025 : Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta today laid the foundation stone for a clean drinking water project at the Chhawla BSF Camp in South-West Delhi, ending a decades-old problem faced by soldiers posted there. The new pipeline will not only provide safe water to the BSF camp but also benefit nearby villages.

On the occasion, the Chief Minister also celebrated the festival of Bhai Dooj with BSF personnel, saying that the brave soldiers protecting the nation’s borders are “the shield of our country”, and that ensuring their welfare is the government’s duty. Responding to the soldiers’ request, she also assured them that a synthetic track would soon be constructed within the camp premises. The water pipeline will be laid from Chhawla BSF Camp to the phirni road of Chhawla village. Connected to the Dwarka Water Treatment Plant, this new pipeline will ensure a clean and reliable water supply not only for the BSF camp but also for the nearby local residents. The event was attended by local MLA Sandeep Sahrawat, public representatives, senior BSF officials, and a large number of residents from the area.

The Chief Minister said the Delhi Government is continuously working to strengthen infrastructure for soldiers, civilians, and rural communities. She added that the government is prioritising projects related to the training and welfare of armed personnel. The Chief Minister emphasised that for the Delhi Government, the needs of the nation’s brave soldiers remain a top priority. This project will bring much-needed relief to thousands of residents and BSF personnel in the region. The Chief Minister shared that during her recent visit to the Chhawla Camp, she had learned about the water supply issues faced by the BSF personnel. With this project now underway, the problem will soon be resolved. She also prayed for the soldiers’ long life and well-being, noting that Bhai Dooj symbolises protection and trust. Every soldier guarding the nation’s borders is a source of pride for all Indians. It is because of their dedication that 1.4 billion Indians live in peace and security.

The Chief Minister mentioned that Honourable Prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrates Diwali every year with the country’s soldiers. His sentiment that the Indian Army is our extended family serves as an inspiration for all. According to the Chief Minister, the Prime Minister believes that when the nation is secure, only then can it prosper. While the soldiers safeguard the country, the Honourable Prime Minister leads its development and progress. Together, they are guiding India towards becoming a ‘Viksit Rashtra’ and a ‘Vishwa Guru’
