The BJP leader said that during the meeting, detailed discussions on Delhi's all-around development were held, including strengthening infrastructure, and commitment to fulfilling the people's aspirations.

"With the able guidance and continuous support of the prime minister, we are fully committed to taking Delhi to new heights of progress, prosperity, and good governance," she added.

Gupta also thanked the prime minister for his constant inspiration and for giving his valuable time.

Gupta on Saturday also felicitated 56 candidates who cleared the civil services examination and said the Delhi government is working to give every student access to quality education, proper guidance, and the necessary resources for competitive exams.

The ceremony 'Delhi ke Gaurav: UPSC Achievers Felicitation Ceremony 2026' was organised for the first time by the government in collaboration with the revenue department and was held at the Mukhyamantri Janseva Sadan.

During her address, Gupta said, "Our goal is to produce a large number of IAS, IPS officers, doctors, and engineers from the capital every year." She affirmed that the Delhi Government is continuously working to make the capital's education system more robust, inclusive, and competitive, ensuring that a significant number of IAS, IPS, and other officers emerge from the city every year.

The government aims to create an academic environment where every student has access to quality education, proper guidance, and the necessary resources for competitive exams, she said.

Remarking on the candidates' relentless hard work, discipline, and unwavering determination, Gupta emphasised that this achievement is not merely a personal success but a significant step toward nation-building.
