On Sunday, Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena visited the camp site at Shyam Vihar, Najafgarh and interacted with the beneficiaries and asked if they were satisfied about the various services offered at the camp, a statement said on Sunday.
Thousands of people visited the camp on Pradhan Mantri-Unauthorised Colonies in Delhi Awas Adhikar Yojana (PM-UDAY) scheme organised by the DDA on its first day on Saturday to sort out issues related to the scheme.

On the instructions of the LG, the DDA started the camp for the people residing in the unauthorised colonies of Delhi. The camps are to be held every Saturday and Sunday from November 30 to December 29 in 10 processing centres inside these unauthorised colonies, it said.
The LG said that the camps are conducted for old and new cases. “I urge people to come in large numbers and get their pending issues resolved as government has come to their doorstep,” he said.
Saxena said that the PM-UDAY scheme was launched in Delhi in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi‘s wish to provide ownership rights to people in unauthorised colonies. The camps would significantly help in disposing of the applications that are pending for the last few years, he said.
