In the dynamic political landscape of Delhi, Congress candidate Abhishek Dutt exudes confidence ahead of the assembly elections, affirming his extensive groundwork in the Kasturba Nagar constituency. Dutt emphasized his commitment to address critical issues such as sewer systems, water supply, and educational enhancements, ensuring a collective advancement for all residents.

Meanwhile, AAP's national convener Arvind Kejriwal has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, advocating a 50% concession for students using the Delhi Metro, aimed at alleviating financial pressures on Delhi's student commuters.
