The head of the government of Delhi, a big city in India, is a woman named Rekha Gupta.

Many people go on a special trip called the Kanwar Yatra.

During this trip, they carry holy water and walk to a temple.

Along the way, they stop at camps to rest.

Rekha Gupta visited one of these camps near the border between Delhi and another state called Uttar Pradesh.

She wanted to make sure the pilgrims were safe and comfortable.
