Delhi CM Distributes Bicycles to 1,400 Class 9 Girls Under Vidya Vahini
What Happened
Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta distributed bicycles to around 1,400 Class 9 girl students at a government school in Shalimar Bagh on October 16 under the Vidya Vahini scheme. The Delhi government says the programme is designed to make school commutes easier and support girls in continuing their education.
Key Takeaways
The October 16 event is part of a phased citywide rollout, not the scheme’s launch. The programme began in July, when more than 3,000 girls received bicycles, and has continued through subsequent distribution drives.
