Kejriwal inaugurates newly-constructed Seelampur, Shastri Park flyovers

New Delhi, Oct 24 (UNI) Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday inaugurated the newly-constructed Seelampur and Shastri Park flyovers, which will be a major relief to commuters between Welcome in northeast Delhi and Kashmere Gate and Delhi Uttar Pradesh border.
Congratulating the people of Delhi and the PWD officials and engineers for the completion of the project, Mr Kejriwal said that the people of Delhi are proud of living in the national capital due to all the facilities and amenities provided by the Delhi government.
He said that the sanctioned cost of the construction project was Rs 303 crore, but it was completed at Rs 250 crore, and Rs 53 crore were saved in the construction of the high-quality infrastructure.
PWD Minister Satyendar Jain was also present in the event.
Mr Kejriwal said, "First of all, I want to congratulate the residents of East Delhi for these two flyovers. The people of East Delhi used to face long traffic jams for longer hours. But now, the journey from ISBT to UP border can now be completed within a span of 10 minutes without any traffic jams and with a smooth ride. The flyover constructed is of good quality. The tender sanctioned for this project was Rs 303 crore, but such is the honesty with which the AAP government functions that our engineers saved Rs 53 crore.''
''With a great construction quality, built under Rs 250 crore, this piece of magnificence is both economical and effective. Since the inception of the AAP government in Delhi, we are saving money on all projects. The AAP government has been saving money in every project. And it's the first time in 70 years in the history of India, that a government has completed projects with significant savings, and at a cost which is less than the sanctioned cost,'' he said.
