Newly appointed Delhi Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot today stressed on the need to provide the last-mile connectivity to the commuters in the city.
During a review meeting with the department's senior officials, he sought the status report of the various pending and ongoing projects.
Gahlot, who was administrated the oath of office and secrecy as the minister in the Delhi Cabinet on Saturday, also holds the portfolios of Law and Justice, Information Technology and Administrative Reforms.
He has been allotted the office of sacked Delhi Minister Kapil Mishra on the 8th floor of Delhi Secretariat.
"The minister has asked for reports from all branches of the department on their pending and ongoing projects. In next two-three days, reports will be submitted to his office," a senior government official said.
The Najafgarh MLA faces an uphill task as the public transport system in the city is not particularly in a good shape.
Since its formation, the AAP government has not been able to add a single new bus to the fleet of Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC).
