DDA's new housing scheme; file awaits L-G nod

The Delhi Development Authority's new housing scheme with 12,000 flats on offer is likely to be rolled out very soon, as the DDA has completed formalities and sent the proposal to the Lt Governor for his nod.

Out of the total number of flats, most of them in Rohini, Dwarka, Narela, Vasant Kunj and Jasola, 10,000 unoccupied flats are from the 2014 scheme, while the rest are other flats which have been lying vacant.

"We have completed all formalities from our side and the proposal has been sent to the L-G for the final nod. So, we are awaiting his response. If the L-G asks for some changes, we will effect them, otherwise the scheme stands the same," an official source said.

Delhi Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal, also chairman of the DDA, had instructed senior officials in April to ensure that adequate public transport connectivity were available.
