New Delhi, Aug 21 (PTI) Delhi Urban Development Minister Ashish Sood on Friday claimed that earlier master plans for the city suffered delays, but the current government has the political will and vision to implement the newly notified Master Plan for Delhi (MPD) 2047.
All three stakeholders, including the Centre, the Union Home Ministry and the Delhi government, are serious about implementing the master plan unveiled on Thursday, Sood said.
“Decongesting the city has been discussed for many years, but there is limited land in Delhi. The plan opens new gates. It paves the way for larger and more houses in the city. New development will be possible by pooling land to total 2,000 square metres,” Sood said.
Transit-oriented development, which is an important part of the master plan, will offer solutions to pollution and mobility challenges, the minister said. PTI VIT VIT ARI ARI
