Lieutenant Governor (LG) V K Saxena has instructed officials to install statues and fountains in Dwarka sub-city as part of efforts to spruce up areas in Delhi that did not get a facelift ahead of the G20 Summit, Raj Niwas officials said on Sunday.
Saxena gave the instructions during a visit to Dwarka on Saturday. He began his visit from the underpass near the Palam flyover and covered various sectors of Dwarka up to the Dabri Nala road, they said.
During his visit, the LG directed the officials of all the concerned civic bodies to ensure that the area is encroachment-free and that pavements and footpaths are pedestrian-friendly.
“Heavy rains during the visit provided the LG and the accompanying officials with first-hand experience of the critical points of waterlogging in the area, and instructions were issued on the spot to address the outstanding issues,” said an official.
