Delhi is losing its historic water bodies, with a recent survey revealing that nearly half exist only on paper. CYCLE is fighting this environmental crisis. Through a series of PILs and public campaigns highlighted by The Hindu and Hindustan Times, we have consistently exposed government apathy and demanded accountability. Our work has forced authorities to acknowledge the scale of the problem and has put the revival of these critical ecological lifelines on the public agenda.
Public services should be for everyone, but there's a stark divide in their distribution. As our work featured in The Hindustan Times shows, some parts of Delhi have over 2,000 parks while others have less than 150. Similarly, our advocacy in Ghumanhera village, covered by The Indian Express, highlights a decade-long wait for a promised college. CYCLE is the voice for these communities, using data and media attention to demand fair and equitable access to the essential services they are guaranteed.
