Delhi CM vows 'strict action' against WCD dept for public notice against Mukhyamantri Mahila Samman Yojana

Delhi Chief Minister Atishi has pledged to take stringent action against the Women and Child Development (WCD) Department for issuing a public notice that contradicted the Mukhyamantri Mahila Samman Yojana.

She emphasized that the notice was not approved by her or the Finance Department and ordered an investigation into how it was published, promising accountability for those responsible.
