New Delhi: Delhi PWD Minister Atishi inspected the Shantivan Road and Delhi Gate on Wednesday to inspect the preparedness of G-20 Summit.
Atishi said that heads of countries and senior officials from around the world were coming to Delhi for the G20 summit and Delhi is ready to welcome them.

“Today, I visited Rajghat, a location that many delegates and heads of countries will visit during the summit. Over the past year, the stretch from Rajghat to Red Fort has undergone a stunning transformation led by the PWD. This area has been enhanced with features such as fountains, contemporary street art, open seating spaces, lighting and many more,” she said.

“Alongside the heads of state, numerous contingents representing political, administrative, social, and economic sectors are also visiting concurrently during the summit.
“Hence, we have revitalized the entire vicinity around Rajghat to offer them an unforgettable experience. Rajghat is the pride of the nation, and we aim for visiting delegates to carry back indelible memories,” she said.
