In comparison, a new house was built for the Delhi CM on only one acre, he had said.

Saxena on Sunday inspected the phase 1 of the Yamuna Rejuvenation Project from Signature Bridge to ITO Barrage, a project that is under the monitoring of a high level committee.

"Raj Niwas is open for everyone to come and see for himself," he said on the sidelines of the event.
