Delhi Launches Vidya Vahini Yojana to Support Students

More than 3,000 ninth-grade students in Delhi received new bicycles on Friday as Chief Minister Rekha Gupta launched the Vidya Vahini Yojana at the East Vinod Nagar Sports Complex. The program aims to improve school attendance and mobility for 1.40 lakh girls across government schools within the next month.

The initiative seeks to dismantle physical barriers to education while bolstering the confidence of young students. By providing reliable transportation, the government intends to reduce family expenses and encourage participation in both academic and extracurricular activities. Chief Minister Gupta emphasized that the bicycles serve as more than just a commute aid, representing a commitment to the safety and educational advancement of Delhi’s daughters.

Beyond the school-focused rollout, the administration has recently moved to finalize the leadership of key social oversight bodies. On July 26, the government formally appointed new chairpersons and members for the Delhi Commission for Women and the Delhi Minorities Commission. Lata Gupta will head the women's commission, while Nirmal Jain takes the helm at the minorities commission. These appointments are intended to strengthen the protection of constitutional rights and promote inclusive development across the capital.
