If you are a resident of a Delhi Development Authority (DDA) colony anywhere in Delhi, be it Sarita Vihar, Saket, Mayur Vihar, Janakpuri, or Ashok Vihar, you will surely find DDA's comprehensive developmental activities.
Recently, Delhi Development Authority (DDA) announced its budget for the financial year 2008-09 on Friday and approved revised budget estimates for the year 2007-08. Expenditure for the year 2008-09 has been projected as Rs. 3,622.6 crore as compared to Rs. 2,309.08 crore in the revised estimates for the year 2007-08. Under the new budget, areas like Rohini, Dwarka, Narela, Dheerpur, Jasola and Bakkarwala will see an increase in the expenditure on development work like housing for economically weaker sections (EWS) and village redevelopment.
For almost five decades now, DDA has played a crucial role in providing more than a million houses to the people of Delhi, housing about half the population of the national capital. DDA has been constructing as well as facilitating the construction of some 10.80 lakh dwelling units in Delhi, according to the requirements and purchasing capacity of people, especially those from the lowest strata of society.
Future and ongoing plans include a pilot project on public-private participation at Tehkhand in South Delhi -- which envisages construction of 750 higher income group flats and 3,000 units under the Economically Weaker Section scheme. The project assumes significance, for it would pave the way for public-private participating in such similar ventures across the Capital.
