NEW DELHI: Following an encouraging response to the flats offered in three recent housing schemes launched last month, Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has prioritised developing green spaces around the housing areas and giving a fresh finish to unsold inventory where needed. The authority also plans to work with local bodies to ensure cleanliness in these areas.
“DDA’s horticulture department is busy developing greens around the housing pockets to improve the quality of life for buyers. Besides, additional final touches are being given to housing blocks to add value. Apart from pursuing Municipal Corporation of Delhi for taking up the cleaning task in flats or areas under their jurisdiction, we are leaving no stone unturned to ensure green and clean surroundings in areas under our jurisdiction,” said an official.
Officials reported that at least 1,650 out of nearly 9,000 flats offered in phase I of the Sasta Ghar Housing Scheme and Madhyam Vargiya Housing Scheme 2024 are being sold on a first-come, first-served basis.
These flats are located in Jasola, Narela, Rohini, Loknayakpuram, Ramgarh, and Siraspur across various categories. Moreover, over 130 out of 169 flats offered through e-auction in the Dwarka Housing Scheme have been sold. These flats are in Sectors 14, 16B, and 19B of Dwarka under the Penthouse, HIG, Super HIG, and MIG categories.
“Over 1,200 LIG and 440 EWS flats were sold out in Sasta Ghar and Madhyam Vargiya Housing schemes, with Rohini leading where all 708 LIG flats were sold, while around 250 flats were booked in Narela. Ramgarh also received an impressive response; out of the 183 LIG flats in the scheme, 153 flats were sold. Among the EWS segment, around 300 flats were sold out in Narela, and all 139 flats offered in Loknayakpuram were also booked,” informed officials.
“Lieutenant governor VK Saxena, who is constantly reviewing the status of housing schemes, also lauded our efforts in this direction and prioritised the need for serving the poor and not-so-well-off sections by offering EWS and LIG flats at a modest rate,” said an official.
In Narela, the authority is working on developing educational institutions, a metro rail corridor, and improving road network connectivity, drainage, electrical connections, water supply, and sewerage networks.
