New Delhi, Sep 15 || Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Monday distributed internship appointment letters to 87 youth selected for the Developed Delhi CM Internship Programme, calling it a historic initiative towards nurturing future policymakers and making democracy more vibrant.
Speaking at the inauguration of a three-day orientation event for CM Internship Programme, CM Gupta said the interns have been selected from among 9,000 applicants in a completely transparent manner and this for the first time that such a programme is being organised in Delhi.
“This is not just an internship programme but a building block in the building of a new India,” said the Chief Minister.
In a word of advice, the CM asked the interns to help making decisions in departments to be more data driven. “Your new ideas will always be welcome. With your help, we will take this fight from social media to the ground and together take the country and Delhi forward,” she said.
