MASTER PLAN FOR DELHIWITH THE PERSPECTIVE FOR THE YEAR 2021 INTRODUCTION
1. Delhi, the focus of the socio-economic and political life of India, a symbol of ancient values and aspirations and capital of the largest democracy, is assuming increasing eminence among the great cities of the world. Growing at an unprecedented pace, the city needs to be able to integrate its elegant past as well as the modern developments into an organic whole, which demands a purposeful transformation of the socio-economic, natural and built environment. The city will be a prime mover and nerve centre of ideas and actions, the seat of national governance and a centre of business, culture, education and sports. 2. Apart from critical issues such as land, physical infrastructure, transport, ecology and environment, housing, socio-cultural and other institutional facilities, the cornerstone for making Delhi a world-class city is the planning process itself and related aspects of governance and management. This needs a co-ordinated and integrated approach amongst several agencies involved with urban services and development along with a participatory planning process at local levels.

VISION 3. Vision-2021 is to make Delhi a global metropolis and a world-class city, where all the people would be engaged in productive work with a better quality of life, living in a sustainable environment. This will, amongst other things, necessitate planning and action to meet the challenge of population growth and in-migration into Delhi; provision of adequate housing, particularly for the weaker sections of the society; addressing the problems of small enterprises, particularly in the unorganized informal sector; dealing with the issue of slums, up-gradation of old and dilapidated areas of the city; provision of adequate infrastructure services; conservation of the environment; preservation of Delhi's heritage and blending it with the new and complex modern patterns of development; and doing all this within a framework of sustainable development, publicprivate and community participation and a spirit of ownership and a sense of belonging among its citizens.

REVIEW OF PAST EXPERIENCE 4. The process of planned development of the National Capital began with enactment of the Delhi Development Act 1957, followed by the promulgation of the Master Plan of Delhi in 1962 (MPD-62). The MPD-62 set out the broad vision for the development of Delhi and, with a view to realizing the development plan underlying this vision, a scheme of Large Scale Acquisition and Development of Land was also formulated. The aim of the latter was to ensure that the spatial pattern of development and use of land could conform to the development plan and infrastructure and services could be laid out to match the same. At that early stage, the process of planned development was

5.

envisaged as a public sector led process with very little private participation in terms of development of both, shelter and infrastructure services. The philosophy of public sector led growth and development process continued in general till the process of economic reforms was initiated in the early nineties. Therefore, the Master Plan for Delhi 2001 (MPD-2001) also substantially reiterated the planning process, which had been outlined in MPD-62. These plans could be seen mainly as land use plans with a three level hierarchy i.e. Master Plan, Zonal Plans and Layout Plans for specific development schemes within each zone. 6. The population of Delhi in 2001 was 138 lakh as against the MPD-2001 projection of 128 lakh. This has had its inevitable implications and impact in terms of shelter, including squatter settlements, and other infrastructure facilities. Some issues that arise for consideration and are also directions for policy include: i) ii) Review of the scheme of large scale development and acquisition and its relevance in the present context; Alternative options for development of areas identified for urbanization in MPD2021;

iii) Evolving a system under which planning for, and provision of basic infrastructure could take place simultaneously with reference to (i) and (ii) above; and iv) Involving the private sector in the assembly and development of land and provision of infrastructure services. 7. One of the most important aspects of planned development pertains to the provision of adequate well-planned shelter and housing for the different categories of inhabitants of the city. The quantitative and qualitative shortages and deficiencies in this regard have been observed while formulating the MPD-2021. In turn, this should also be seen in concert with the involvement of the private sector in land assembly and development. Two major challenges which have emerged in the wake of the developments outlined above relate to the phenomenon of unauthorized colonies and squatter / jhuggi jhompri settlements. This reality will have to be dealt with not only in its present manifestation, but also in terms of future growth and proliferation. The exercises done for the MPD-2021 show that there is a need for redevelopment and densification of the existing urban areas and city improvement. This aspect is a major component of the new Master Plan. It calls for a comprehensive redevelopment strategy for accommodating a larger population, strengthening of infrastructure facilities accompanied by creation of more open spaces at the local level by undertaking measures for redevelopment of congested areas.

8.

9.

10. Another important development observed during the period of the last Master Plan is the phenomenal growth of automobiles in Delhi. This has resulted in a variety of problems pertaining to congestion, pollution, safety of travel and parking etc., which need to be addressed.

11. The NCT of Delhi has been divided into 15 Zones from A to H and J to P, of which 8 Zones are in the urban area, one in Riverbed and remaining 6 in the rural area. So far, Zonal Plans in respect of 11 zones (including sub cities of Dwaraka, Rohini and Narela) have been notified with the approval of the Government of India. It is pertinent to finalise the Zonal Plans for all the planning zones within a year from the date of notification of the MPD-2021. 12. The experience of the past two Master Plans shows that projections regarding various basic infrastructure services have been made with reference to the population growth projections and the increased urbanization requirements. However, the infrastructure provisions especially those related to water and power have not matched the pace of development. METHODOLOGY ADOPTED FOR PLAN PREPARATION 13. Keeping in view the democratic procedure and statutory obligations, the Draft Plan was prepared after obtaining the views of the public. It also included extensive consultations at the pre-planning stage by involving local bodies, Government of NCT of Delhi, public sector agencies, professional groups, resident welfare associations, elected representatives, etc. 14. The Ministry of Urban development issued guidelines in 2003 for the preparation of the MPD 2021 which inter alia emphasised the need to explore alternate methods of land assembly, private sector participation, and flexible land use and development norms. The Authority also had the benefit of the reports of 12 study groups set up with experts and stakeholders on various aspects such as shelter, demography, conservation, transportation, industry, environment, mixed use, infrastructure, trade and commerce etc. Details of the study groups are given in Annexure-V. Five seminars were organised on various aspects involving experts in the field, representatives of GNCTD and local bodies and NGOs. 15. The DDA has also made presentations on the draft MPD 2021 before various forums including the Consultative Committee of Parliament, Lt Governor, Delhi, Chief Minister Delhi and the Cabinet of GNCTD and the Group of Ministers set up by the Central Government. The Draft MPD 2021 was also discussed at length in the Legislative Assembly of NCT of Delhi and the suggestions made by the members were considered and forwarded by the Delhi cabinet to the Authority and the Ministry of Urban Development for its consideration. A large number of representations received in the Ministry of Urban Development from various interest groups such as lawyer, doctors, Chartered Accountants, traders, residents, etc were also considered. Personal interaction with various interest groups as well as elected representatives including Members of Parliament, Members of Legislative assembly, Municipal Councillors were held by the Minister and Minister of state for Urban development at various points in time. 16. The Draft Master Plan was notified for inviting public objections / suggestions through Gazette Notification dated 16.03.2005 and public notice in newspapers on 08.04.2005. In response, about 7000 objections / suggestions were received, which were considered by the Board of Enquiry which met on 17 occasions and also afforded personal hearing to about 611 persons / organizations. The Authority considered the revised draft MPD 2021 along with the report of the Board of Enquiry in three sittings held on 29.12.2006,

4.1.2007 and 19.1.2007 before it was sent to the Ministry of Urban Development for approval. The Ministry of Urban development considered the proposal in the light of the inputs received from DDA and from various quarters and finally approved the Master Plan for Delhi 2021 in the present form. 17. The success of Master Plan depends on conversion of the policies and strategies outlined in it into time bound development and action plans, periodic reviews and close monitoring, besides the people's will and willingness to adhere to discipline in the use of land, roads, public space and infrastructure. Any issue arising from interpretation of the provisions of this Master Plan will be settled by DDA in consultation if required with Central Government. MAJOR HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PLAN 18. The Master Plan incorporates several innovations for the development of the National Capital. A critical reform has been envisaged in the prevailing land policy and facilitating public - private partnerships. Together with planned development of new areas, a major focus has been on incentivising the recycling of old, dilapidated areas for their rejuvenation. The Plan contemplates a mechanism for the restructuring of the city based on mass transport. The Perspective Plans of physical infrastructure prepared by the concerned service agencies should help in better coordination and augmentation of the services. 19. The Master Plan envisages vision and policy guidelines for the perspective period upto 2021. It is proposed that the Plan be reviewed at five yearly intervals to keep pace with the fast changing requirements of the society. 20. The following critical areas have been the focal points of the Plan: (a) Land Policy: The land policy would be based on the optimum utilisation of available resources, both, public and private in land assembly, development and housing. (b) Public Participation and Plan Implementation:

Decentralised local area planning by participatory approach; Performance oriented planning and development, with focus on implementation and monitoring.

(c) Redevelopment: Incentivised redevelopment with additional FAR has been envisaged as a major element of city development covering all the areas;

1.0 REGIONAL AND SUB-REGIONAL FRAME

Delhi as the National Capital has a distinct and unique character. It is a growing and expanding magnet of attraction for people from all across the country and also a hub for the region surrounding it. Planning for a metropolis like Delhi, therefore, cannot be limited within its boundaries. The physical potential for further urbanization within the NCT is reducing although there is a virtual urban continuum between Delhi and the surrounding areas, which lie in the States of Uttar Pradesh and Haryana. With the imperatives of growth and development, the problems of Delhi have become complex, which have to be viewed both as a challenge in terms of the pressures of regular and floating in-migration, as well as an opportunity in terms of planning and development in a regional context. 1.1 BALANCED REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT In recognition of the above factors, the Central Government enacted the National Capital Region Planning Board Act, 1985. The National Capital Region (NCR) Planning Board, constituted under the Act, is charged with the responsibility of coordinating the efforts of the adjoining States through the instrumentality of Regional and Sub-Regional Plans. The present National Capital Region (NCR) comprises of a total area of 33,578 sq. km. including areas of Delhi (1483 sq. kms), Haryana (13413 sq. kms.), Uttar Pradesh (10853 sq. kms.) and Rajasthan (7829 sq. kms). 1.2 POLICY ZONES The Regional Plan 2021 has been drawn up with reference to the following four Policy Zones:i. ii. NCT of Delhi. Central National Capital Region - Central NCR

iii. Highway Corridor Zone iv. Rest of NCR. 1.2.1 NATIONAL CAPITAL TERRITORY OF DELHI

In the National Capital Territory of Delhi, the basic policy is to achieve environmentally sustainable development / re-development considering the limitations of land and water with significantly improved quality of infrastructure. 1.2.2 CENTRAL NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION (CENTRAL NCR)

The Central NCR (earlier the Delhi Metropolitan Area) as defined in the Regional Plan - 2021, comprises of the notified / controlled development areas of the neighboring towns of Ghaziabad - Loni, NOIDA, Gurgaon-Manesar, Faridabad-Ballabhgarh, Bahadurgarh and Sonepat-Kundli, and the extension of the ridge in Haryana, having an area of about 2000 sq. kms.

10

It has been suggested that the opportunities presented by the Central NCR should be maximized to enable it to compete effectively with the NCT of Delhi, offering comparable employment, economic activities, comprehensive transport system, housing, social infrastructure and quality of life and environment. Together with this larger industries should be located in the urbanisable areas in this zone. 1.2.3 HIGHWAY CORRIDOR ZONE

The NCR Plan has proposed promotion of planned and regulated development along the National Highways. However, while planning for these Zones, due care has to be taken to ensure that the activities being permitted are segregated from highway traffic through proper green belts, and regulated and controlled access to the Highways. The identified Highway Corridor Zones will also have to be notified by the respective State Governments with appropriate regulations for their development. 1.2.4 REST OF NCR

In the Rest of the NCR (approximately 29,795 sq. kms.), the basic policy of the Regional Plan - 2021 is aimed at accelerated development of the urban and rural areas. For this, infrastructure has to be substantially upgraded at local and regional level (both by the State and Central Government) in order to induce growth in these areas, specifically in identified settlements / Metro Centres. It is felt that this will make them more attractive for locating economic and allied activities and for attracting private sector investment. 1.3 FRAME WORK FOR SUB-REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT As a follow up of the Regional Plan-2021 and in consonance with, under Section 17 of the NCRPB Act, 1985, a Sub-Regional Plan for Delhi is to be prepared by GNCTDelhi. It is suggested that a High Level Group may be constituted by GNCT-Delhi to implement the policies of the Regional Plan and ensure timely preparation of the SubRegional Plan. As already mentioned Delhi has a limited area of 1483 sq. kms., out of which about half of the area is already urbanized. For the remaining area, optimum utilization of land is required so that while providing for the urbanization requirements, the natural features like the ridge and other major green areas, defined water bodies and areas of ecological importance could be conserved. In this background, it has been suggested that: i) As per NCR Plan, no new Central Government and Public Sector Undertaking offices should be located in NCTD. However, this would be possible only after a time bound action plan is prepared together with suitable incentives and disincentives. Industrial growth in Delhi should be restricted to high-tech with emphasis on units, which require skill, less manpower and energy and do not create pollution / nuisance.

ii)

iii) Legal and fiscal measures should be adopted to restrict employment in industries and distributive trade.

11

iv) Major regional transport corridor and communication network needs to be strengthened to enhance economic development within the region and decentralization of the distributive trade. v) The natural features such as Forest, Wild life Sanctuary, Ridge, River Yamuna and other water bodies should be conserved and kept free from unrestricted and unplanned urban development.

NCR Plan-2021 has proposed the availability of urbanisable land in NCT-Delhi for 2021, which is given in Table 1.0. Table 1.0 : Availability of Urbanisable Land in NCT-Delhi for 2021 S. No. 1 2 3 Land Use Area (Ha.) Percentage to Total Area (Ha.) 100 47.31 13.16

2. POPULATION AND EMPLOYMENT

As per 2001 Census, NCT of Delhi had a total population of 138 lakh. NCT Delhi is highly urbanized with 93.18% of its population living in urban areas as against the national average of 27.81%. During 1991-2001, the urban population of Delhi increased at 3.87% annual growth rate. With the continuation of the present population trend, the total population of NCTD by the year 2011 and 2021 would be 182 lakh and 225 lakh respectively. Envisaging a balanced regional development, the population for the NCTD has been projected as under: 2.1 POPULATION The population assignment stipulated in the Regional Plan-2021 for the National Capital Region (NCR) and National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCTD) are as given below: Table 2.1 : Population Assignment - 2021 Area NCR NCTD
Source: NCR Plan - 2021.

Population (In lakh) 641.38 220-230

While it may not be possible to make an accurate forecast, the expectation is that the population of Delhi may range between 220 to 230 lakh in the year 2021. However, requirement of land, provision of infrastructure and transportation, etc. should be planned for the projected population of 230 lakh. 2.2 POPULATION ESTIMATES AT FIVE YEAR INTERVALS The population estimates for NCTD at five year intervals are given in the following table: Table 2.2 : Five Yearly estimates of Projected Population Year 2001 2006 2011 2016 2021 Population (In lakh) 138.0 162.0 182.0 199.0 230.0

13

During the course of implementation of the plan, attempts should be made to restrict the population of Delhi lower than 220 lakh by 2021. To a substantial extent, this depends on the effective implementation of the policies and proposals of the Regional Plan -2021 NCR by the Government of NCT Delhi / Agencies, DDA, concerned Central Govt. Department and other NCR participating States. 2.3 NATURAL GROWTH AND INMIGRATION There has been increase in natural growth from 55.80% in 1981 to 59.21% in 1991 and 60.18% in 2001 and decrease in the net migrants from 44.20% in 1981 to 40.78% in 1991 and 39.82% in 2001. However, a reduction in the rate of natural growth and increase in migration between 2001 and 2021 is envisaged in the MPD 2021. The net increase of population in NCT-Delhi is given below:

ELDERLY AND CHILDREN POPULATION The DDA Sub-group (MPD-2021) projected that the Rate of elderly population (persons aged +60) is expected to increase from 5.9% in 2001 to 10.7% in 2021. At the same time population of children (aged 0-14 years) would decrease from 29.5% in 2001 to 21.75% in 2021. The details break-up of elderly people and children are given below.

Figures (in bracket) indicate percentages to the total population. Source: Census of India and projections by DDA Sub-Group (MPD-2021)

The above age-group wise distribution of population should form the basis for providing special facilities to the elderly such as old age homes, low floor buses, special seats in buses, special seats in public toilets and ramps in public buildings. 2.5 EMPLOYMENT The participation rate (Working Population / Total Population x 100) for the last two decades for Delhi is as given below: Table 2.5 : Participation rate of population Year 1991 2001 Male 28.8 28.3 Female 3.7 4.4 Total 32.5 32.72

With the generation of employment in different sectors, the participation rate for 2021 would be 38.1 percent in NCTD. Based on the assigned population of 220 lakh, this would generate a total work force of 83.82 lakh by 2021. 2.6 PROJECTED WORK FORCE FOR NCTD-2021 The work force in different economic sectors has been assigned as follows: Table 2.6 : Projected Work Force for NCTD-2021 Sectors 1) 2) 3) Agricultural etc. Manufacturing, Processing, Servicing, Repairs Household Industry Other than Household Industry Work Force (in lakh) 0.67 0.34 17.52 Percentage 0.8 0.4 20.9

The demographic trends indicate the following: (i) (ii) The rate of growth of the elderly population is expected to show an increasing trend from 5.9% in 2001 to 10.7% in 2021. It is projected that the gender composition will shift significantly to a greater parity between numbers of males and females with 102 lakh females and 106 lakh males in 2021. The trend discerned from a comparison of the 1991 Census and 2001 Census shows that the percentage of combined workforce in 'Primary activities, Industry & Construction' is declining and that in 'Services' is increasing. In keeping with this decline, emphasis should be laid on tertiary sector activities such as commerce, sports, IT applications, cultural activities and tourism.

3.0 DELHI URBAN AREA-2021

In 2001, about 702 sq km of area was estimated to have been built up, accommodating about 138 lakh population. To accommodate the projected population of 230 lakh by the year 2021, a three-pronged strategy is recommended: i) ii) To encourage the population to deflect in the NCR towns; To increase the population holding capacity of the area within existing urban limits through redevelopment; and

iii) Extension of the present urban limits to the extent necessary. 3.1 POPULATION HOLDING CAPACITY OF DELHI The area within the existing urbanisable limits of Delhi Urban Area-2001 consists of the planning zones A to H and the Dwarka, Rohini, Narela Sub-city projects. Population holding capacity of A to H zones is to be enhanced through a redevelopment strategy and modified development norms. This will be related with: i) ii) Residential development types and their potential for higher absorption. Redensification of housing areas developed at lower densities and along selected sections of the Metro corridor.

iii) Redevelopment areas should be identified by the concerned agencies and Special Redevelopment Schemes should be prepared with regard thereto for implementation within a stipulated time framework. iv) v) vi) Employment areas / centres Augmentation and rationalisation of infrastructure - physical and social. Increase in transportation network capacity.

The holding capacity of Dwarka, Rohini Phase III, IV & V and Narela is proposed to be enhanced through: i) ii) Early and full utilisation of the planned areas and, Implementation of the schemes under planning stages.

Existing residential areas may provide a potential to accommodate about 153 lakh population ultimately i.e. 114 lakh in Zones A to H and 39 lakh in Dwarka, Rohini Phase III, IV & V and Narela.

Note: Population figures are only broad planning guidelines.

The remaining population for the year 2021 will have to be accommodated in the planned new urban extensions. 3.2 URBAN EXTENSION Out of the remaining 77 lakh (230-153 lakh) population, 29 lakh already exists in villages, census towns, unauthorised colonies and JJ clusters in the present rural areas. Therefore about 48 lakh additional population is to be accommodated in the future urban extensions. Due to land constraint in the NCTD, the areas earmarked as rural / agricultural in the previous Master Plans have always been under pressure for utilisation for various urban activities and have virtually lost their original character. In future, urbanisation has to be in the areas that have development pressure / potential like the areas along the major transport corridors and fringes of already urbanised areas. It is envisaged that major rural areas would be absorbed as urban extension from time to time with due regard to balanced city development. At the first instance, to accommodate the projected additional population @ 250-300 pph average city level density, the requirement for urban extension would be 20,000-

18

22,000 ha. of land within development time frame of 15 -16 years. The immediate urban extension could be in the zones of J to L, N & P (I & II). The land required for urban extension, will have to be assembled for planned development. Considering the constant pressure on the rural land, new farmhouses and motels shall not be permitted in the proposed Urban Extension as per MPD-2021. 3.2.1 GREEN BELT

The previous Master Plan proposals for retention of Green Belt have not been maintained and a considerable part has already been utilised for both, planned and unplanned developments. The Plan stipulates that the land upto the depth of one peripheral village revenue boundary along the border of NCTD, wherever available, would be maintained as Green Belt. Considering the constant pressure on the rural land, new motels shall not be permitted in the green belt. However, existing village abadis, regularized unauthorized colonies and approved motels may continue in the green belt. (Refer Table 9.4, Chapter 9.0 Environment, for permissibility). GNCTD shall be responsible for ensuring utilization of land in Green belt in accordance with permissible uses. Land in the Urban Extension is proposed to be broadly distributed in different land uses in the following manner as shown in Table 3.2. Table 3.2 : Land use Distribution Land use Residential Commercial Industrial Green/Recreational* Public & Semi-Public Facilities Circulation
*This does not include green areas within the various gross land use categories.

% of Land 45-55 4-5 4-5 15-20 8-10 10-12

On an average the space required per person would be 40 sqm, covering about 920 sqkm of urban area for the projected population of 230 lakh in year 2021. 3.2.2 HIERARCHY OF URBAN DEVELOPMENT

A planned city for an environment of convenience should have a hierarchical cellular structure; with nuclei to contain essential facilities and services at different levels. The pattern of a community module is conceived as residential area containing a 'neighbourhood' with senior secondary school and shopping facilities for day-to-day needs. The higher level of additional facilities is to be provided at Community, District and Zonal / subcity levels. Such a structure could be maintained in the process of the preparation of plans on the basis of the standards set in the Table 3.3:

3.3

REDEVELOPMENT OF EXISTING URBAN AREA The scope for development of urban extensions on a large scale is restricted due to limitations of buildable / urbanizable land in Delhi. Therefore, the option of redevelopment through a process of reorganisation and utilisation of the land already developed will be a major element of the overall city development plan. A redevelopment strategy for accommodating more population in a planned manner is to be taken up on priority in all use zones for efficient and optimum utilization of the existing urban land, both in planned and unplanned areas. This would have to be based on provision of infrastructure viz. water supply, sewerage, road network, open spaces and the essential social infrastructure. To encourage the growth impulse for regeneration in the target redevelopment areas, the possible incentives and modalities recommended include grant of planning permission at the scheme level with permission to reorganize / pool properties for planning purposes, provision of social infrastructure through Transferable Development Rights or Accommodation Reservation and reduced space standards for unplanned areas, enhanced FAR for specified redevelopment areas and application of flexible concept of mix-use zones in Special Area & Villages on scheme basis. 3.3.1 REDEVELOPMENT STRATEGY

The target areas for redevelopment will have to be identified on the basis of their need for up-gradation and potential for development. Redevelopment Schemes will be prepared by the respective local body / land owners / residents. The concerned local body should promote private land owners to take up assembly and redevelopment of a minimum area of 4 hectares. Some of the areas identified are: 3.3.1.1 Planned Areas A. Influence Zone along MRTS and major Transport Corridor Growth of Delhi over the years has been on the ring and radial pattern with reliance on road based public transport. The development envisaged by the previous Plans was poly nodal with hierarchy of Commercial Centres located either on ring or radial roads. The proposed MRTS network will bring sizable urban area within walking distance from the proposed stations. This will have an impact on the existing structure of the city and consequently its development. This changed scenario provides opportunities for city restructuring and optimum utilization of the land along the MRTS corridors. In this process, a sizable proportion of the additional population with requisite facilities and employment can be absorbed along these corridors. Influence Zone along MRTS corridor is envisaged as intensive development zone. The scheme for Redevelopment of Influence Zone shall be prepared on the basis of the following: i. Maximum upto 500 m. wide belt on both sides of centre line of the MRTS / Major Transport Corridor (to be identified in consultation with GNCTD) will be designated as Influence Zone which will be identified in the respective Zonal Development Plans.

26

ii.

Entire approved layout plan of a scheme will be included in the zone if more than 70% of the plan area falls inside the influence zone. In case of large schemes, block / pocket boundary should be considered as one scheme for this purpose.

iii. The approval of schemes will be granted only after commencement of execution of the respective phase of MRTS. iv. Development Controls applicable will be as permissible for the respective use zones / use premises. v. Higher FAR and height can be availed of through the preparation and approval of comprehensive integrated scheme.

vi. In the proposed Urban Extension areas the land uses will be integrated with the proposed movement corridors at planning stages only. vii. The following areas shall be excluded from the enhancement of FAR: B. Lutyens' Bungalow Zone, Chanakya Puri., DIZ Area and Matasundari Area. Civil Lines Bungalow Area. Monument Regulated Zone (As per ASI guidelines). Property development of DMRC. Comprehensive commercial schemes.

Re-densification of low-density areas There is a large proportion of underused land with a number of vacant sites as well as dilapidated built-up areas lying vacant in the city. Many of such areas are owned by Government of India. Such areas are recommended to be planned for redevelopment with higher density in order to make optimum use of land resource as per the prescribed norms.

C.

Redevelopment of Other Developed areas In Delhi, including New Delhi (NDMC area), a large number of housing, commercial and industrial areas are old and characterized by poor structural condition, sub-optimal utilisation of land, congestion, poor urban form, inadequate infrastructure services, lack of community facilities, etc. These are to be redeveloped as per the prescribed norms and development controls and with the initiative / consultation with the Residents' society / RWA / Traders' Associations.

3.3.1.2 Special Area The Special Area as defined in the Plan has been divided into three separate parts, namely (i) Walled City (ii) Walled City and Extension and (iii) Karol Bagh. These are characterized by a mix of different land uses and have similarities in compact built form, narrow circulation space and low-rise high-density developments, mainly accommodating residential, commercial - both retail or wholesale and industrial uses. Therefore, it is important that the areas, which are already established with identified uses, continue to play an active economic role. The Authority may further designate certain other areas as 'Special Area'.

27

The strategy is to provide suitable framework for allowing mix-use activities appropriate to the character of the areas as per the individual schemes having greater flexibility in terms of permitting variety of uses namely, commercial use (shops, offices, banks etc.), household industries or outlets for specialized services etc. However, the criterion of selection of the mix-use activities shall be as per Mixed Use Regulations. Required parking and open spaces will have to be provided as per the norms, while reduced space norms for other facilities may be accepted. The redevelopment areas should ensure modern services and amenities, thereby eliminating risk generating structures and activities. The regulations for Special Area shall be different from other areas. All these areas are to be brought within the planning purview. For this, the owners can jointly redevelop on the basis of the norms and regulations to be prescribed. A. Shahjahanabad (Walled City) The most important part of the Special Area is the traditional City of Shahjahanabad, part of which is a core of the business district. The area is prone to commercialisation, particularly with improved accessibility due to the MRTS. The Plan proposes to regulate and shift noxious and hazardous wholesale trades and industrial activity from this area. Traditional areas in Walled City need special treatment to conserve its heritage value while retaining the residential character. Redevelopment of government owned katras is to be taken on priority. However, redevelopment would also be promoted in privately owned katras simultaneously. Permission of activities in use premises and building control regulations shall be as follows: (i) The area surrendered for public facilities or for heritage value to be used as tradable FAR. The street pattern in residential area is proposed to be restructured with linkages from the metro stations. The minimum road width and prioritizing of road widening are dictated by fire and other disaster management criteria. The streets, having 30m to 50m lengths, shall have a minimum of 3m width and streets having more than 50m length shall have a minimum of 4.5m width. Common facilities shall be located with linkages to pedestrian roads and metro stations. (iii) Subject to preparation and approval of an Integrated Redevelopment Scheme, higher FAR and other development controls can be considered. This provision is also subject to requirement of heritage controls, parking, accessibility of emergency vehicles and basic services. B. Walled City Extension Pahar Ganj, Sadar Bazar, Roshanara Road and their adjoining areas comprise the Walled City and Extension. These are old congested built-up areas and for up-gradation of the environment in these areas, minimum level of infrastructure and parking facilities should be provided.

(ii) Street pattern:

28

The redevelopment in these areas shall be in accordance with the respective comprehensive redevelopment schemes with conservative surgery as a planning tool, as far as possible. In the Special Area Plan, use zones have been marked in different pockets of the `Other Urban Renewal Areas'. These pockets shall be planned for the respective use zones assigned. The redevelopment schemes for different use zones shall generally adopt regulations prescribed in the Development Code except in cases where special provisions have been made / proposed in this Plan. C. Karol Bagh Karol Bagh has become one of the important commercial centre outside the Walled City. The invasion of commercial activity has pushed out the residential use substantially. Karol Bagh area is due for comprehensive redevelopment on the basis of mixed-use concept with provisions of parking and up-gradation of facilities and utilities. The gridiron pattern should be treated as an asset to regulate and pedestrianize the traffic movement. 3.3.1.3 Unplanned Areas A. Slum and JJ Clusters, Resettlement Colonies and Unauthorised Colonies In-situ up-gradation of the land pockets of slum and JJ Clusters, which are not required for public / priority use is the first option for provision of affordable housing for rehabilitation of squatters. Resettlement colonies though planned, are also to be upgraded in a similar way for infrastructure provision. Similarly, unauthorized colonies slated for regularization are also proposed to be improved through redevelopment by ensuring participation of the inhabitants. B. Villages The villages in Delhi have undergone significant physical and functional transformation related with their specific location. Villages are characterized by a mix of different land uses and have similarities in compact built form, narrow circulation space and low-rise high-density developments. These mainly accommodate residential, commercial and industrial uses and function as a mix. It is important that these areas, which are already established with identified uses, continue to play an active economic role. Comprehensive schemes for the development of villages should be prepared by the concerned local bodies with the aim of provision of optimal facilities and services within the abadis and integration with the surrounding areas. Towards the latter objective, development along the peripheries of the villages should be carefully planned, wherever necessary for the provision of services and green / open areas, circulation, etc. This aspect should also be kept in view while preparing layout plans for urban extension areas. For provision of social and educational facilities, reduced space standards shall be adopted. The facilities like community hall, dispensary etc. may be grouped together

29

depending on the availability land. Small shops shall be permissible in residential plots on ground floor as per provisions of Mixed Use Regulations in village abadi including rural (para 15.6.3). 3.3.2 GUIDELINES FOR REDEVELOPMENT SCHEMES

The basic objective of redevelopment is to upgrade the area by implementing specific schemes on the basis of existing physical and socio-economic conditions in the following way: i) Influence Zone along MRTS Corridor and the Sub-Zones for redevelopment and renewal should be identified on the basis of physical features such as metro, roads, drains, high tension lines and control zones of Monuments / Heritage areas, etc. The residents / cooperative societies / private developers should get the layout and services plan prepared in consultation with the concerned authority for approval.

ii)

iii) Within the overall Redevelopment / Regularisation plans, building plan approval shall be at following two stages: a) Planning Permission for an area of around 4 Ha. This permission may not be required in case an approved layout / Redevelopment / Regularisation plan exists. b) 1. Cluster Block for a minimum area of 3000 sq.m. The owners should pool together and reorganise their individual properties so as to provide minimum 30% of area as common green / soft parking besides circulation areas and common facilities. 2. Individual buildings shall be given sanction by the concerned authority within the framework of cluster block approval. c) The norms of Group Housing with respect to ground coverage, basement, parking, set backs etc. (except FAR) shall be applicable. iv) Amalgamation and reconstitution of the plots for planning purpose will be permitted. v) To incentivise the redevelopment a maximum overall FAR of 50% over and above the existing permissible FAR on individual plots subject to a maximum of 400 shall be permissible. Higher FAR shall however not be permissible in redevelopment of Lutyens Bungalow Zone, Civil Lines Bungalows Area and Monument regulated Zone.

vi) In case of plots with service lanes, the lane area may be included in the scheme. However, no FAR / coverage will be granted and the area shall be used as public area. vii) The standards of housing density, minimum width of roads and community facilities can be relaxed, wherever justified, by planning considerations (e.g., pedestrianization of the area).

30

viii) The Public and Semi-public uses and services like hospitals, dispensaries, colleges, schools, police stations, fire stations, post offices, local government offices, parking etc. shall be retained in their present locations as far as possible and if not, relocated as part of the redevelopment scheme. Alternative sites shall be indicated in the Redevelopment Schemes / Zonal Development Plans. Any change or addition thereof shall be in accordance with the overall policy frame prescribed in the plan. ix) Reduced space standards may be adopted for community facilities / social infrastructure for the areas mentioned in 4.2.2.2 B sub para (ii) 'social'. The land required for any public purpose may be acquired with the consent of the owner through issue of Development Rights Certificate in lieu of payment towards cost of land as per the prescribed regulations. The concept of Accommodation Reservation i.e. allowing construction of community facilities without counting in FAR may also be utilized. x) Subject to preparation and approval of integrated / comprehensive Redevelopment schemes and provision of parking and services, up to 10% of the FAR may be allowed for commercial use and 10% of the FAR for community facilities with a view to trigger a process of self-generating redevelopment.

xi) The circulation pattern should include segregation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic, entry control, access of emergency vehicles to every block, provision of adequate parking etc. xii) Appropriate levies for increased FAR, and landuse conversion shall be charged from the beneficiaries by the competent authority as per prevailing rules / orders. xiii) Urban Design and Heritage to be ensured as per the guidelines. xiv) The land use shall be governed as per the Master Plan / Zonal Development Plan. The non-residential use will be permitted as per the provisions of the Mixed Use Regulations and Special Area Regulations.

31

4.0 SHELTER
The policy regarding "Shelter" is based on the goal of ensuring 'Shelter for All' by harnessing the potential of the public, private / corporate and household sectors. It aims to ensure effective housing and shelter options for all citizens, especially for the vulnerable groups and the poor, by creation of adequate housing stock on either rental or ownership basis. It envisages the role of the public agencies as facilitator through policy and strategic interventions. Housing has a strong spatial relationship with employment, social services and other urban activities. The policy for development of housing could act as major tool for influencing the efficiency and equity of urban areas, besides its direct role in the provision of shelter. 4.1 HOUSING NEED As per the Census 2001, Delhi has 24.5 lakh Census houses under the category of residence and residence-cum-other uses, in which 25.5 lakh households are residing. This reflects a net housing shortage of about 1.0 lakh houses / dwelling units. The households are accommodated in a variety of housing types including different categories of planned built housing, squatter settlements, unauthorized colonies, traditional areas and villages. The Sub-group on Shelter noted that up to the year 1991, the contribution to housing stock through institutional agencies was only 53% (excluding squatter housing). Therefore, the component of housing through non-institutional sources, viz., unauthorized colonies, squatter / JJ clusters, etc., is quite significant. This trend has continued in the current decade as well and has to be kept in view while determining the plan and strategy for housing. Based on the projected population of 230 lakh by 2021, the estimated additional housing stock required will be around 24 lakh dwelling units. This includes an estimated housing requirement of 20 lakh dwelling units for additional population and backlog of about 4 lakh units comprising of 1 lakh net shortage and the rest by dilapidated and Kutcha structures requiring replacement. It has also been assessed that around 40% of housing need can potentially be satisfied through redevelopment / up-gradation of existing areas of Delhi. This may be met in the present urban limits of A to H zones and in the sub cities of Dwarka, Rohini and Narela. This implies that the remaining 60% of the requirement would have to be met through 14.4 lakh new housing units to be provided in new areas. In order to ensure that housing need is accommodated in the urban extension, the Zonal Plans for 2021 should be prepared within 12 months. Keeping in view the socio-economic composition of the population, it is estimated that around 50-55% of the housing requirement would be for the urban poor and the economically weaker sections in the form of houses of two rooms or less. Based on past experience it is necessary to distinguish between the urban poor comprising the inhabitants of squatter settlements / pavement dwellers, etc. and other economically weaker sections of the society, conventionally classified in the form of EWS, LIG, etc.

32

The role of the government would have to be both as a provider and facilitator. The category of the urban poor is to be broadly catered in old and new urban areas through up-gradation of old / traditional areas, employers and industrial housing, group housing and also in unauthorised regularised colony infills. A possible indicative scenario in terms of mode of housing supply in different types of development for the next two decades emerges as under: Table 4.1 : Indicative Distribution of Housing Types Housing Type Development Agencies Housing Component (%) EWS/LIG Slum & JJ In-situ Rehabilitation; Relocation / Reconstruction & Up-gradation. Houses on Independent Plots & Redevelopment Group Housing (Min. 35% of total DUs mandatory 2 room or less) Employer Housing Unauthorised Regularised colonies infill Other Housing areas / Up-gradation of Old areas / Traditional areas / Villages TOTAL 4.2 HOUSING STRATEGY The proposed housing strategy incorporates specific approaches for development of new housing areas, up-gradation and re-densification through redevelopment of existing housing areas including unauthorized colonies, housing in villages and Special Area. Looking at the possible distribution of housing types, the future requirement of shelter provision will be dominated by small dwelling units. In view of the limited availability of land and increased requirement of housing, plotted residential development shall be discouraged. Public, Private, Co-op Society 25 Others Total 25

It is proposed to adopt a multi-pronged housing strategy for provision of housing stock and for delivery of serviced land, involving the private sector to a significant extent, public agencies and co-operative societies etc. The overall responsibility for provision of land and facilitation of adequate housing to meet the projected demand lies with the DDA in collaboration with GNCTD and other agencies. Planning norms, land use zoning, density, FAR, and building controls have been reviewed for housing, both in new areas to be opened up and for redevelopment of existing areas. In the context of housing strategy, it is essential to optimise utilization of land and space with a view to increasing net residential density. These norms and controls should also be reviewed periodically (preferably every five years) by DDA and suitably modified / updated to meet the requirements of the citizens. It has been observed that the practice of prescribing FAR / density norms without distinguishing between housing categories in terms of plinth area, can result in over population or under population on the one hand, and non-optimal design and under-utilisation of the utility network, on the other. The norms should provide options to achieve the density and FAR both in Ground + 3 or 4 storeyed walk-up structures, without lift or in high-rise construction. A fixed density could lead to under utilisation of FAR or imposition of artificial limits to optimal use of land, which is a scarce commodity. Therefore, the following density norms, with corresponding category of dwelling unit (DU) sizes are proposed: Slum / EWS housing (upto 30 sq.m) Category I (above 30-upto 40 sq.m.) Category II (above 40-upto 80 sq.m.) Category III (above 80 sq.m) 600 DUs/Ha 500 DUs/Ha 250 DUs/Ha 175 DUs/Ha

The Central Government may relax density and other norms in consultation with DDA for public housing and projects of national importance. In case of plotted development, the permissible number of dwelling units will be as prescribed for different plot sizes given in the development controls. In case of Bungalow area (Part zone D) any residential density in group housing pockets shall be prescribed on the basis of detailed scheme. In case of Civil Lines Bungalow Area, the development controls for group housing shall be as prescribed in the Zonal Development Plan of zone 'C'. To make the construction activity more environment friendly, the choice of alternative building materials and techniques have to be reoriented and promoted for construction activity. Building technology parks and mobile expositions for cost effective materials and techniques are to be explored for new housing areas and redevelopment schemes. Standard specifications may also be incorporated in the Government Schedule and may be adopted for public buildings and housing schemes. 4.2.1 NEW HOUSING AREAS Even if the assumptions regarding the extent of housing that could be met by redevelopment of the existing areas actually materialize, there would still be a need

34

for the development of housing to the extent of at least 75,000 DUs per annum in different categories. This implies that specific plans would have to be evolved by DDA with the approval of the Competent Authority and action be taken with reference to the following: (i) Determination of area requirement; (ii) Identification of the areas for urbanization / housing development; (iii) Evolving the pattern and norms for new housing development; (iv) The mode and manner of development, and the roles of the private and public sectors in this process. As already indicated, more than 50% of the new housing would be in the form of one and two room units with average plinth area of about 25 sq.m. to 40 sq.m. The average plinth area per house to be achieved in various neighbourhoods will also depend on composition of various income groups to be accommodated in the composite housing schemes. The policy should indicate that EWS & LIG houses after construction by a private group shall be handed over to the nodal agency / agencies and these should be allotted to eligible beneficiaries. The new housing developed through the aforementioned methods should be based on a composite area basis and should cater to the special needs of elderly, handicapped and single occupants. With these aspects and planning norms, the land required to be developed in new housing will be to the tune of around 450-500 ha. per annum. 4.2.2 RESTRUCTURING AND UP-GRADATION OF THE EXISTING AREAS

In Delhi, a large number of areas are old and are characterized by poor structural condition of buildings, sub-optimal utilisation of land, congestion, poor urban form, inadequate infrastructure services, lack of community facilities, etc. The housing stock in both planned and unplanned areas can be enhanced through various approaches as given below. 4.2.2.1 Planned Areas A. Plotted / Group Housing The flats built by DDA, particularly those, which have become aged, may be redeveloped with permission and subject to the condition that the structural safety of other flats is not impinged. Already developed group housing inclusive of public (DDA and others), co-operative housing may be redeveloped on the basis of prescribed norms and regulations by formulating co-operative societies or self-managing communities. The funds for redevelopment should be contributed by the residents. B. Employer Housing In Delhi after Independence, substantial areas were developed at low density and have potential for densification. These are mainly government and cantonment areas. In order

35

to optimally utilise these prime lands there is need of intensive development. On a conservative estimate the present housing stock can be increased to more than double. Infrastructure enhancement and provision for additional housing can be financed from the funds generated through cross-subsidisation between commercial and residential use for EWS and LIG categories. C. Bungalow Area Lutyens' Bungalow Zone comprises of large size plots and has a very pleasant green environment. The essential character of wide avenues, large plots, extensive landscape and low rise development, has a heritage value which has to be conserved. Mixed use, high intensity development along MRTS corridor and de-densification of trees / reduction of green cover is not permitted at all. The strategy for development in this zone will be as per the approved plans and the LBZ guidelines, as may be issued by the Government of India from time to time. Civil Lines also has Bungalow Area of which the basic character has to be maintained. 4.2.2.2 Traditional Inner City and Unplanned Areas The congested areas of the city have a predominant residential component like Shahjehanabad (Walled City), and its Extensions, Karol Bagh (Special Area) and villages. The unauthorised / regularised colonies, which are unplanned areas, have a role to play as a housing stock provider. All these areas should be redeveloped ensuring modern services and amenities for a safe residential environment and in the process, eliminating risk prone structures and activities. The owners can jointly redevelop the areas based on the prescribed guidelines. A. Special Area and Villages The Old City areas, Shahjehanabad (Walled City), and its Extensions, Karol Bagh (designated as Special Area) are fast changing their residential character to nonresidential use, but still have a residential component. The non-residential uses of varying degrees have developed with time depending on their location, related with accessibility and the established trade. In the case of traditional inner city areas, it is essential first to distinguish between the heritage segment of the area and the non-heritage segment of the area. Well-designed Special Area Redevelopment Schemes must be prepared for traditional areas giving the development control parameters for the heritage areas keeping in view archaeological norms / architectural character and general parameters for the non-heritage segment of the traditional area. Each Special Area Redevelopment Scheme should entail an enumeration of the monuments and old buildings within the heritage areas, which must be conserved. The MCD is the nodal agency who should prepare Special Area Redevelopment Schemes for all traditional areas within a time frame. The basic objective of Special Area Redevelopment Scheme in traditional areas is to bring about in situ improvements which help in improving architectural character of the area, i.e., design and layout, as well as revitalising trade and commerce in the area.

36

The villages are also considered at par with these as they also have the same traits. The socio-economic changes in these old unplanned areas, especially in villages, have been substantial. The redevelopment plans should ensure that the permissibility of mixed use zoning at property or within the premise level is compatible to the predominant residential areas. B. Unauthorised / Regularised Unauthorised Colonies Unauthorised colonies in Delhi pose a serious human problem as a huge population is living in these colonies. The issue of existing unauthorized colonies has engaged attention since the mid-seventies when a policy for regularization was formulated. 567 out of 607 listed unauthorized colonies were regularised till October 1993, but many more unauthorized colonies have come up since then. Such colonies are to be identified by the Govt. of NCTD. The present method of regularization of unauthorized colonies is by the provision of basic infrastructure to improve the environment. However, regularization has not really brought in any tangible improvement. Effectively, the process has only led to de-facto tenure rights on the land and access to services. In all unauthorised colonies whether on private or public land, regularization should be done as per the government orders issued from time to time. It must be ensured that for improvement of physical and social infrastructure, the minimum necessary / feasible level of services and community facilities are provided. (i) (ii) Physical: Plans for provision of services shall be prepared by the concerned local bodies. Social: For provision of social facilities, reduced space standards shall be adopted. Depending on the availability of land, facilities like community hall, dispensary etc. can be grouped together. Primary School Sr. Secondary School 800 sq.m. per 5000 population 2000 sq.m per 10000 population

(a) (b)

The above norms can be further relaxed for existing recognised schools on the basis of minimum norms prescribed by the Education Department, GNCTD / Central Board of Secondary Education. (c) The following facilities can be clubbed in a composite facility centre (500-1000 sqm.) (i) Multi-purpose community hall - 100 sqm. (ii) Basti Vikas Kendra - 100 sqm. (iii) Religious site - 100 sqm. (iv) Police Post - 100 sqm. (v) Health Centre - 100 sqm. (vi) Park/Shishu Vatika - 200 sqm.

37

(vii) Area for essential retail outlets e.g., Milk Booth, Fair Price Shop, Kerosene shop, etc. may be provided. (viii) Provisions for informal trade units and weekly market to be made, wherever necessary. 4.2.3 HOUSING FOR URBAN POOR The category of urban poor for purpose of the Plan would mainly comprise the inhabitants of squatter settlements and informal service providers. Such services could include domestic help, hawkers and vendors, low paid workers in the industrial, commercial and trade / business sectors, etc. These include both existing population and future migrants. In terms of housing requirements of the city, this continues to be the single biggest challenge and would require a mix of approaches and innovative solutions. 4.2.3.1 Rehabilitation/Relocation of Slum & JJ Clusters In so far as the existing squatter settlements are concerned, the present three-fold strategy of relocation from areas required for public purpose, in-situ up-gradation at other sites to be selected on the basis of specific parameters and environmental up-gradation to basic minimum standards shall be allowed as an interim measure. Rest of the clusters, till they are covered by either of the first two components of the strategy, should be continued. During the Plan period 1981-2001, sites and services approach based relocation was employed in which resettlement of squatter slums was done on 18 sqm and 12.5sqm. plots (transit accommodation) allotted to eligible persons on licence basis. This has led to a number of aberrations and there are several aspects, due to which this approach needs to be progressively abandoned and substituted by an alternate approach. Broadly speaking this alternate approach should have the following components: (i) Resettlement, whether in the form of in-situ up-gradation or relocation, should be based mainly on built up accommodation of around 25 sq. m with common areas and facilities, rather than on the model of horizontal plotted development.

(ii) The concept of land as a resource should be adopted to develop such accommodation with private sector participation and investment, to the extent possible. (iii) Incentives by way of higher FAR, part commercial use of the land and, if necessary and feasible, Transfer of Development Rights should be provided. (iv) A cooperative resettlement model with adequate safeguards may be adopted with tenure rights being provided through the institution of Co-operative Societies. (v) The provision of accommodation should be based on cost with suitable arrangements for funding / financing, keeping in view the aspect of affordability and capacity to pay. (vi) In cases of relocation, the sites should be identified with a view to develop relatively small clusters in a manner that they can be integrated with the overall planned

38

development of the area, particularly keeping in view the availability of employment avenues in the vicinity. Very large resettlement sites could lead to a phenomenon of planned slums. (vii) Suitable arrangement for temporary transit accommodation for families to be rehabilitated should be made. This may preferably be near or at the same site and the utilization of these may be synchronised with the phases of implementation of the scheme of in-situ up-gradation. (viii) Community Based Organisations (CBOs) and Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) should be closely involved in the resettlement process. 4.2.3.2 Resettlement Colonies Most of the resettlement colonies have been provided with essential services, but the immediate need is of individual services i.e. water, sewerage and electricity. To ensure healthy and better environment, the construction of houses needs to be based on approved / standard building plans. Co-operative societies / private developers / govt. agencies may come forward for redevelopment based on the incentives as applicable for the Squatter Rehabilitation Scheme. Reconstruction of existing plotted development, group housing should be encouraged as per the Redevelopment Guidelines given in para 4.2.3.4. 4.2.3.3 New Housing for Urban Poor New housing should be in the form of one or two room units, which would be developed through public and private agencies and through Cooperative societies. As this category constitutes bulk of the housing stock that has to be catered at an affordable price to the lowest income bracket as housing for Economically Weaker Sections (EWS), this is often done by cross-subsidization. For this purpose, adequate land would be earmarked for EWS housing. The developers of group housing shall ensure that minimum 15% of FAR or 35% of the dwelling units, whichever is more, are constructed for Community-Service Personnel / EWS and lower income category. 1[Employer Housing of Central Government, State Government and other Government Agencies are not required to follow the requirement of FAR or Dwelling Units for Community Service Personnel / EWS and lower income category.] In old built up areas, this may be as redevelopment schemes or industrial housing, etc., whereas, in urban extensions, the acquisition and development cost of this land should be borne by rest of the project. Such reserved lands should be handed over to a designated agency for promoting housing for low income and weaker sections. The pattern of EWS housing shall be such as to ensure optimal utilization of land in a sustainable manner. For that purpose, multi- storied housing will be the preferred option. Apart from mandatory provision for EWS housing in all group housing projects/ schemes, the primary responsibility for creating adequate stock of housing for urban poor shall be borne by public agencies.

4.2.3.4 Slum & JJ Redevelopment Regulations and Guidelines for Collective Community Rehabilitation / Relocation - In-situ Up-gradation / Rehabilitation of Slum & JJ Clusters and Resettlement Colonies The concerned implementing agency / corporate body should work out schemes for collective community rehabilitation / relocation and explore the possibility of involving private sector / slum cooperatives. In existing resettlement colonies, redevelopment, regular servicing and maintenance, which are overdue, are to be based on the guidelines and incentives as applicable for the Slum & JJ Rehabilitation Scheme. The following guidelines with site-specific relaxations may be adopted as required. Regular monitoring of executed schemes and revision of these guidelines at the time of preparation of new schemes is essential. Group housing norms shall be applicable with the following conditions: (i) (ii) (iii) Minimum plot size 2000 sqm (facing a min. road of 9m). Maximum density - 600 units per ha. + 10% variation, on residential component of the land. The scheme should be designed in a composite manner with an overall maximum FAR of 400 on the residential component of the land and FAR on the remunerative component of the land shall be as applicable for the relevant land use. Mixed land use / commercial component up to 10% of permissible FAR in the residential component of the land. Specific situations may require clubbing of scattered squatters with JJ sites in the neighbourhood to work out an overall comprehensive scheme. The minimum residential component of the land area for rehabilitation of squatters has to be 60% and maximum area for remunerative use has to be 40%. Area of dwelling unit for rehabilitation shall be around 25 to 30 sqm. Common parking is to be provided which can be relaxed wherever required, except for the parking for remunerative purposes. No restriction on ground coverage (except set backs) Schemes shall be approved by concerned local body. Schemes / designs should be compatible for disabled. Norms for Social Infrastructure shall be as per 4.2.2.2 B sub para (ii) 'Social'. Norms for Physical Infrastructure shall be as per note (iv) of Table 4.2.

NIGHT SHELTER The provision of night shelters is envisaged to cater to the shelter less, which are proposed to be provided near the Railway Terminals, Bus Terminals, Wholesale / Retail markets, Freight Complexes etc. as per requirements, and should be identified keeping in view major work centres. Special provisions should be made for the homeless, women and children including the disabled, orphans and old. In addition, multi-purpose use of the existing facility buildings may be allowed for night shelter purpose. Provision should also be made for converting existing buildings, wherever available, with suitable modifications into night shelters.

40

On the basis of the 2001 Census of houseless population, at least 25 sites should be earmarked in Delhi for night shelters. In order to make the provision of this facility financially sustainable for the local body, innovative concepts such as integrated complex with commercial space on the ground floor and night shelter on the first floor should be explored. The guidelines and incentive package should be designed by the concerned local agency in collaboration with the Govt of NCT-Delhi with a view to develop self-sustaining night shelters. One night shelter shall be provided for 1 lakh population. 4.4 DEVELOPMENT CONTROLS FOR RESIDENTIAL USE ZONE In the residential use zone there are two sub-zones, RD - Residential Area (including villages within Laldora located in any use zone) and RF - Foreign Mission. Permission of use premises in sub-use zone RD shall be as per permissibility given in the respective chapters. 4.4.1 PERMISSION OF USE PREMISES IN THE SUB USE ZONE - FOREIGN MISSION (RF) Foreign Mission Housing (for the Mission Employees) Guest House Local Shopping Bank Recreational Club Health Centre- Hospital, Dispensary Cultural and Information Centre Police Post and Fire Station Post and Telegraph office SUB-DIVISION OF RESIDENTIAL ZONE (RD) INTO USE PREMISES

5.0 TRADE AND COMMERCE

Shopping and commercial areas reflect the economy and the image of the city. As per the Economic Survey of Delhi 2001-2002, there were about 2.3 lakhs retail enterprises in Delhi with an employment of 5.4 lakhs engaged in trade, commerce and allied services. It is expected that the number of enterprises in retail trade are likely to increase to about 4.15 lakhs by 2021 and the corresponding employment is likely to increase to about 9.63 lakhs. In addition to these, large number of enterprises in sectors such as restaurants and hotels, finance & insurance, real estate & business operate from commercial centres. This indicates the predominance of retail and allied service activities in the economic structure of the city. The major changes in the economic structure are due to liberalization of the economy, entry of multinational companies in the consumer sector, improved telecommunication system, increased per capita income and the purchasing power of the people. 5.1 PRE 1962 / MPD-1962 COMMERCIAL AREAS Residential areas and streets / stretches earlier declared as commercial areas / streets or where commercial use was allowed in MPD-1962 shall continue such use at least to the extent as permissible in MPD-1962. Commercial activity existing from prior to 1962 in residential areas are also permitted subject to documentary proof thereof. 5.2 HIERARCHY OF COMMERCIAL AREAS The following five-tier system of Commercial Areas is envisaged to accommodate required shopping, commercial office and other service activities like cinema, hotel and restaurant and various community services and facilities in an integrated manner. In addition, some components of commercial use are also provided under mixed use, non-hierarchical commercial centres, and informal sector in the selected areas along the MRTS corridor.

5.3

METROPOLITAN CITY CENTRE The existing CBDs are Connaught Place and its Extension, commercial areas in Walled City and its Extension and Karol Bagh. These have all the necessary ingredients to emerge as Metropolitan City Centres. These Metropolitan City Centres, need to be seen in the light of the historical legacy of the pre-colonial and post-colonial capital cities of the so called old and new Delhi, are envisaged as a city level centre for shopping, entertainment, socio-cultural and all other activities indicated in respect of District Centres. A comprehensively planned and attractive built environment will therefore need to be conceptualized and implemented to develop these as unique centres and major attraction of the city, apart from their commercial and social value for the citizens. The Urban Design guidelines for Metropolitan City Centre are given in Chapter 11.0 Urban Design.

52

5.3.1

CONNAUGHT PLACE & EXTENSION

The development of the Metropolitan City Centre in harmony with the existing urban form of the classical Connaught Circus and multi-storeyed buildings in its extension is envisaged to bring in visual integration in the overall urban form. The areas included in the Metropolitan City Centre would be Connaught Place & Extension (Janpath, Sansad Marg, Baba Kharag Singh Marg, Panchkuian Road, Barakhamba Road, Kasturba Gandhi Marg), Gole Market, Mandi House, Pragati Maidan, Indraprastha Estate. An integrated plan incorporating urban design, landscape, traffic and transportation schemes, safe pedestrian walkways, parking areas, recreational and cultural areas etc. is to be prepared for its development. 5.3.2 SHAHJAHANABAD (WALLED CITY) AND EXTENSIONS

The commercial areas in Shahjahanabad (Walled City) and Extensions would be delineated in Special Area / Zonal Plan (as provided for in para 16.3 (5)). These traditional areas need to be treated carefully and sensitively in view of their high density and multiple uses. The aim is to revitalize the glory of Walled city and its economic & tourism potential. 5.3.3. KAROL BAGH

Commercial area of Karol Bagh has become one of the important centre in the Special Area, for which development norms / regulations have been given in Chapter 17.0 Development Code. 5.4. DISTRICT CENTRE / SUB- CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT The District Centres are meant to serve as the apex of the multi-nodal activities of the community, which should be conceived as major shopping centers, while serving the community with a reasonable variety of other services and facilities and also centres of socio-cultural activity where the community can get together. MPD-2001 proposed two sub CBDs with norms of District Centres (namely Shahadara and in Urban Extension). These are now proposed to be dealt as District Centres. The emphasis in these centers should be on commerce and their related activities. The District Centres already developed or in advanced stages of development are: i) ii) iii) iv) v) vi) vii) viii) Nehru Place Rajendra Place Bhikaji Cama Place Janakpuri Laxmi Nagar Shivaji Place (Raja Garden) Jhandewalan Netaji Subhash Place (Wazirpur)

53

ix) x)

Saket Manglam Place (Rohini)

These centres were developed on the basis of integrated schemes and some of these need upgradation in terms of infrastructure, parking spaces, hawking plazas, physical infrastructure and built environment. The implementing agency / land owning agency can undertake review of the schemes for their upgradation and optimum utilisation of land. The implementing agency should formulate action plans by involving developers and owners associations to improve the environment through self-sustaining schemes, which should include provisions for their subsequent maintenance and upkeep. Other District Centres in Delhi Urban Area (DUA)-2001, in the process of development yet to be developed are as indicated below: i) ii) iii) iv) v) vi) vii) viii) ix) x) xi) xii) xiii) 5.5 Trans Yamuna Area- Shahdra Rohini - Twin District Centre Peeragarhi (Rohtak Road) Paschim Vihar Shalimar Bagh Dheerpur Extension (Jahangirpuri) Majnu ka Tila (Khyber Pass) Dilshad Garden Shastri Park (Shahdara) Mayur Vihar Rohini Ph-III / IV / V Dwarka Narela

NON - HIERARCHICAL COMMERCIAL CENTRES Besides the above District Centres, the following Non Hierarchical Commercial Centres shall be developed with specific schemes for each centre: i. ii. iii. iv. Commercial Commercial Commercial Commercial Centre at Asaf Ali Road Centre adjoining Metropolitan Passenger Terminal, Okhla (Jasola) Centre Laxmi Bai Nagar Centre, Nehru Nagar (Near Ring Rail)

The following other existing non-hierarchical commercial centres, which are also providing services at city level, would also need to be redeveloped: i) ii) iii) iv) Central market - Lajpat Nagar INA market Sarojini Nagar market Any other area as may be identified.

54

The development control norms for the above areas shall be as per approved schemes and any enhancement in FAR wherever approved shall be subject to charging appropriate levies from the beneficiaries. 5.6 COMMUNITY CENTRE (CC) LOCAL SHOPPING CENTRE (LSC) / CONVENIENCE SHOPPING CENTRE (CSC) 5.6.1 The Community Centres should be conceived as shopping and business centres catering to the needs of the population at community level. These centres may have Retail Shopping, Commercial and Government Offices, Local Body / Public Sector Undertaking offices, Cinema / Cineplexes, Hotels, Restaurants, Banquet halls and Guest House, Nursing Home, Dispensary, Clinical Laboratory, Clinic & Poly Clinic facilities together with other community facilities as indicated in table 5.1. The LSC / CSC will cater to the day-to-day needs of the local population. Some areas developed prior to 1962 like Lajpat Nagar, Rajouri Garden, Tilak Nagar, Kamla Nagar etc. having concentration of commercial activities, may continue subject to conditions prescribed under the Mixed Use Regulations. The existing built-up commercial centres may be redeveloped if need be with enhanced FAR subject to payment of appropriate levies.

5.6.2

5.7. COMMERCIAL CENTRES IN URBAN EXTENSION 5.7.1 SUB CITY LEVEL COMMERCIAL AREAS In Urban Extension, District Centres and Community Centres could be developed wherever possible, in a linear form as commercial cum facility corridors along major transport networks. Such corridors will have non-residential uses like Commercial, Recreational, Public and Semi public, Utilities, Service and Repair, etc. with detailed Urban Design and landscape schemes. The aim is to prevent unintended and unplanned ribbon development. The proposed MRTS stations and bus terminals, as the case may be, shall be integrated within these facility corridors. 5.7.2. LOCAL LEVEL COMMERCIAL AREAS In case of Urban Extensions it is proposed to combine and integrate LSC and CSC at neighborhood level to ensure their location within walkable distance. 5.8 HOTELS Delhi is emerging as an international centre of education, health care, tourism, sports and business, which require complimentary facilities such as hotels catering to various economic groups. Such uses are proposed as part of commercial use (Community Centres and above), Public Semi-Public facilities, wholesale markets, transport nodes, etc. To cater to low tariff accommodation, a hierarchy of Guest House, Lodging and Boarding House / Dharamshala / Hostel have been proposed under respective land uses. Hotel is permitted in Commercial Use Zone, Commercial Centres in Industrial Use Zone, and Transport Nodes (ISBT, Bus Depot/ Terminal, Railway Station, Airport, Integrated

55

Freight Complex, Metropolitan Passenger Terminal) and other use zones - where already existing and where building plans are approved by the Competent Authority. The maximum ground coverage and FAR in such cases shall be as per the sanctioned building plans but in no case exceeding the permissible ground coverage and FAR of that use zone. This is subject to the provision of parking as per norms. 5.9. SERVICE MARKETS Special attention is required for the low turnover and space extensive shops for fruits and vegetables, service and repair, junk and scrap materials (kabari), building materials, automobile workshops etc. The grouping of such activities with planned retail markets leads to conversion of shops into high profit commercial activity. To avoid continuance of this situation, about 10% of the unutilized sites of LSC / CSC are proposed to be converted into Service Markets. In Urban Extensions, sites for such service markets at two levels should be established in the initial stages of development to avoid unauthorized ribbon development and misuse of residential premises.

5.10. INFORMAL SECTOR Large sections of unemployed and under employed population in rural areas and small towns look forward to the metropolitan cities like Delhi for employment and enter the city to move up the economy ladder. This brings forth a multitude of small enterprises and petty trading activities in the informal sector. Thus, a metropolis like Delhi has organized sector and an equally large informal sector. This sector with highly reduced needs of floor space and investment is important as a source of employment and services in the economic fabric of the city. A survey conducted by the Directorate of Economics and Statistics on unorganized trading activity in Delhi estimated the total number of unorganized trading enterprises as 2 lakh and the number of persons employed about as 3.18 lakh. The contribution of this sector, which is measured in terms of Gross Value added to the economy of Delhi, was estimated at Rs. 1.01 lakh per enterprise per annum. The informal sector units locate themselves strategically near work centres, commercial areas, outside the boundaries of schools colleges, hospitals and transport nodes and near large housing clusters. A very high percentage of this activity has been observed in the Walled city, Trans Yamuna area and old commercial areas. A large number of units are mobile in nature. 5.10.1. POLICY FOR EXISTING AREAS Keeping in view the National Policy on Urban Street vendors the following provisions are made: i) The location / concentration of present stationary informal units shall be considered on case to case basis and steps for relocation / improvement shall be taken. It should be ensured that such activities do not spill over on the right of way. The Government / concerned local agency should coordinate the policy. The areas of informal sector shall have suitable public conveniences and solid waste disposal arrangements. Formulation of guidelines for schemes would include 'Hawking' and 'No Hawking' Zones. Specific areas should be earmarked for stationary and mobile street vendors by the concerned local authority in consultation with RWAs. The local authorities should take up new designs of stalls, push-carts and mobile vans of various sizes and with cleaning facilities, giving due consideration to urban design requirement of specific area, where informal shopping is being permitted. Defining the role and responsibility of NGOs along with specific obligations on part of hawkers towards the society for maintenance of law and order within the hawking zones and weekly markets. An informal unit shall not be permitted within a distance equivalent to half the width of the road, from an intersection.

5.10.2. ORGANISED INFORMAL SECTOR PLACES (Haat) There are large numbers of informal sector units in the city but no organized clusters. There is a need to provide for organised informal eating-places along with casual shopping, etc. to be located strategically in the city and at the following locations: i) ii) iii) iv) v) Near TV Tower Pitampura. Near sub C.B.D. Trans Yamuna Area. Rohini Geeta colony Adjacent to transport nodes including ISBT. Implementing agency may identify locations as per requirement for such activities.

5.10.3 INFORMAL BAZAAR In new urban areas, informal bazaars could form part of the planned commercial areas at two levels. These could be implemented in the initial planning stages along with development of residential areas. The planning norms are given in the Table 5.3. 5.10.4 WEEKLY MARKETS Weekly market, which is the traditional style of retail shopping, is quite popular in Delhi especially among the lower and middle-income groups. These markets are held in various areas. Further, parking and other open spaces within the service markets and commercial centres should be so planned that weekly markets can operate in these areas. The specific locations and timings of operation of such markets should be specified and regulated by the concerned local body. 5.10.5. PLANNING NORMS FOR INFORMAL TRADE The informal sector trade should be incorporated in the planned development in various use zones. The provision of informal sector trade units should be ensured at the time of sanction of building plans / layout plans as per the norms given in the Table5.3.

6.0 WHOLESALE TRADE

Delhi is the biggest consumption centre in North India. It has attained the status of a major distribution centre by virtue of its geographical location and other historical factors. As per Economic Survey of Delhi 2001-2002, there are about 37,000 wholesale enterprises in Delhi with an employment of about 1.6 lakh. In addition there are about 6,500 enterprises of storage and warehousing providing employment to 27,000 persons. It is expected that the number of enterprises in wholesale trade may increase to about 66,000 by 2021 leading to increase in employment to about 2.85 lakh persons. Some of the major commodities involved in the wholesale trade are textile and related products, food items, autoparts and machinery, hardware and building materials, paper and stationery, fruits and vegetables and Iron and Steel. Around 20% of the total wholesale trade enterprises of urban Delhi are located in the walled city, accounting for around 12% of the employment. The average enterprise in the Walled City has less employment but high turnover in comparison to units in other areas. In order to decentralise wholesale trade, the planned markets were developed at Azadpur, Naraina, Okhla, Narela, Keshopur, etc. 6.1 CITY LEVEL WHOLESALE MARKETS 6.1.1 EXISTING MARKETS IN SPECIAL AREA

In case of existing developed areas, all wholesale markets generated with hazardous materials should be developed in decentralized manner and shifted to the areas assigned for these. All unauthorized encroachments / projections on roads / government land should be removed to facilitate easy movement of traffic. Further extension of the wholesale activity in the Walled City and its Extension shall be totally stopped by giving incentives and disincentives as under: i) Incentives: a) b) c) d) The liasioning offices of the traders / agents to continue in the present location; Development of New counter markets for wholesale trade and warehousing; The new counter markets should have access from National Highway, arterial networks and connectivity with MRTS; and Incentives such as Transferable Development Rights (TDR) and reduced taxes to enable start up / expanding of activity in the new markets.

ii)

Disincentives: a) b) Restriction on the entry of heavy goods vehicles in the Special area; Storage of hazardous / inflammable commodities like paper, plastic / PVC, chemicals, petroleum and its products; should be discouraged.

64

c)

Restriction on storage / warehousing of bulky commodities like food grains, fruits and vegetables, dairy, poultry / fish products, iron and steel, and building materials; and Non-renewal of trade licenses for Wholesale Trade in non-conforming areas.

d) Sadar Bazar

The old congested built up areas like Sadar bazaar have serious problems of traffic congestion, inadequate physical and social infrastructure, lack of open spaces etc. The wholesale market of Sadar bazaar needs to be redeveloped at the same location with necessary infrastructure and parking required for wholesale trade. 6.1.2 PROPOSED WHOLESALE MARKETS WITHIN INTEGRATED FREIGHT COMPLEXES It is proposed to develop new wholesale markets as counter markets to cater to the demands of the growing population of Delhi only, near the rail and road entry points of NCTD. These should be linked with the proposed Wholesale Markets within Integrated Freight Complexes where the wholesale business could be operated more efficiently in a better environment. The break up of land requirement for different commodities at various locations should be decided at the time of preparation of schemes for the complex by the implementing agency. Wholesale markets within Integrated Freight Complexes are to be developed as per requirement. The new wholesale markets shall provide facilities for: (i) (ii) (iii) Intra-urban freight movement and interchange of mode. Warehousing and storage facilities. Servicing, lodging and boarding, idle parking and other required facilities.

6.2. SUB-CITY LEVEL MARKETS Delhi has become an agglomeration of cities over a period of time. Sub-City level wholesale markets shall cater to the needs of population at local level. These markets of medium size need to be dispersed throughout the city to enable even distribution of commodities from these complexes to the retail outlets. Most of the existing planned markets and warehousing were developed in early seventies for specific commodities. Due to their proximity to residential area, these markets need to be redeveloped to overcome the environmental and traffic problems. The traders associations shall share the responsibility of redevelopment to modern wholesale markets. The beneficiaries will have to pay the betterment charges to the implementing agency. Space for commodities that are not permissible in mixed-use streets under para 15.6. shall be made available in wholesale city level market and sub-city level market to enable their relocation.

In addition to above, the following wholesale markets are to be developed: i) ii) iii) iv) Loni Road Rohini Ph-IV / V Dwarka Sub-City Narela Sub-City

In Urban Extension, about 8-10 ha. of land for about one million population should be provided for such Sub-City level markets. The different commodities to be provided at various locations should be decided at the time of preparation of schemes by the implementing agency. These markets shall have adequate parking, repair and servicing facilities. Land should be identified in each zone accordingly. 6.3. STORAGE OF OIL, CNG AND LPG Shakurbasti Oil Depot has been shifted to a site between Ghevra and Tikri Kalan, which will be a major storage site for oil. The land thus vacated should be partly utilized for Disaster Management Centre and rest for recreational activities. No new Depots for oil and LPG shall be developed in NCT of Delhi. The new depots required for the increased energy requirement shall be developed in the National Capital Region and the supply of Oil / LPG / CNG etc. to Delhi should be through pipelines.

7.0 INDUSTRY
As per Economic Survey of Delhi 2001-02, there were about 1,29,000 industrial units in Delhi in 1998 against 85,050 units in 1991. A door-to-door industrial survey revealed that an average unit employed 9 workers while 30% of the units employed 4 workers or less. The survey also revealed that textiles products (garments) units constitute the largest number, followed by repair services and electrical machinery. The table below shows the growth of industrial units and employment. Year 1981 1991 1998 No. of Industries 42,000 85,050 1,29,000 No. of Employees 5,68,910 7,30,951 14,40,000

Source: Economic Survey of Delhi 2001-02

The issue of industries in Delhi has been a subject of extensive debate, controversy and concern over the past decade. This has centred mainly on the aspects of pollution and negative environmental impact of industries, the existence and continued growth of industries in non-conforming areas and the issue of classification and permissibility with reference to household industries. Serious concern has been expressed regarding the continued existence and further proliferation of industries in contravention of Master Plan provisions. 7.1 STRATEGY Keeping in view the position brought out above as also in the context of the continuing pressure of population growth in Delhi, the following broad policy would be required for the industrial sector: i) ii) iii) iv) v) Promote hi-tech and low volume -high value added industries, which are not labor intensive. Encourage modernization and technological up-gradation of existing industries required for day-to-day needs of the people of the city. Take corrective measures with regard to industries in non-conforming industrial areas in terms of environmental and other norms as may be prescribed. Provide suitable incentives and disincentives, and other measures, for shifting and relocation of industrial units not conforming to the land use norms. Review, and possibly widen, the scope of permissibility of household industrial units subject to adherence to pollution control norms and environmental considerations, fire safety regulations and other relevant factors, particularly the aspect of infrastructure services.

68

7.2

CLASSIFICATION OF INDUSTRIES The classification of Industries is proposed to be simplified with prohibited category and non-prohibited category subject to proposals regarding specific category of industries permitted in different use zones. Further, all planned industrial areas are designated under a single landuse category namely Industry. The standards prescribed by the pollution control authorities would have to be met by all industrial units, in addition to specific conditions in terms of number of workers and power load in specified categories. Industries listed under prohibited category shall not be permitted to be set up in Delhi (Annexure - III). The existing industrial units under prohibited category need to relocate themselves outside Delhi, within a period of three years.

7.3

PERMISSIBILITY OF INDUSTRIAL UNITS IN DIFFERENT USE ZONES AND USE PREMISES For the industrial classification, the limits of aforesaid parameters shall be fixed according to the nature of industries, area and the nature of industrial development. The threshold parameters for industrial units are given in table 7.1.

The industrial units could be permitted only after provisional registration by the Govt. of NCTD. Household industrial units shall be allowed on any floor to the extent of 50% of permissible floor area of the dwelling unit. Further additions / alterations to the list of Household Industries could be made, if considered appropriate and in public interest by the Central Government to do so.

7.6

INDUSTRIAL AREA REDEVELOPMENT SCHEMES The redevelopment schemes cover the following aspects: i) ii) Modernization and upgradation of existing planned industrial areas; and, Redevelopment of areas, which have become industrialized over the period of the two Master Plans even though not designated as such. EXISTING PLANNED INDUSTRIAL AREAS

7.6.1

These industrialized areas were developed in the 70's and over the years, have deteriorated considerably in terms of physical infrastructure and, in some cases deficiencies on this score have persisted in an overall sense. Besides, there have been changes in the nature of activities in some of the areas and there have also been demands for using part of the plots for activities, which could be classified as commercial. There may also be a need to see whether further densification is possible in terms of creating smaller plots by sub-divisions to accommodate a larger number of industries / units. Guidelines for redevelopment of existing industrial areas shall be framed within 2 years by DDA in consultation with GNCTD and the local body. Till such time, the existing sub divisions may continue. There is, therefore, a need for modernization and up-gradation of the existing industrial areas with due regard to environmental considerations. Since most of the Industrial areas are located along the Mass Public Transport Corridors, there is also a need for optimizing the use around these areas through the process of redevelopment. This process of upgradation and redevelopment will need to be carried out in a planned manner, and in a public-private partnership framework, in which the entrepreneurs contribute to the betterment and subsequent maintenance through suitable Operation and Maintenance arrangements. 7.6.1.1 Industrial activity shall be conducted at the following locations in the Industrial Use Zone, as indicated in the Land Use Plan: ZONES A to H: Naraina Indl. Area, Jhandewallan Flatted Factory, Motia Khan Scheme, DCM Flatted Factory Complex, Shahzada Bagh Indl. Area, Gulabi Bagh Indl. Area, Rajasthan Udyog Nagar G.T. Road near Jahangirpuri, SMA Co-op. Indl. Estate G.T. Road near Jahangirpuri, SISI Indl. Area G.T. road near Jahangirpuri, G.T. Karnal Road Indl. Area near Rana Pratap Bagh, Hindustan Prefab Ltd., Indl. Area near Shivaji Rly Stn. (Minto Road), Okhla Indl. Area Ph.I, II & III, Mohan Co-op Indl. Area, SISI Complex Okhla near Modi Flour Mills, Najafgarh Road Indl. Area near Zakhira, Kirti Nagar Indl. Area, Mayapuri Ph. I & II, Udyog Nagar Rohtak Road, Keshav Pur Leather Tannery Scheme (part of Service Centre) near Vikaspuri, Wazirpur Industrial Area, Lawrence Road Indl. Area, Mangolpuri Indl. Area Ph.I & II, Jhilmil Indl. Area, Patparganj Indl. Area, Friends Colony Indl. Area, Narela Indl. Estate, Bawana Indl. Estate, Khanjhawala Indl. Estate, PVC Bazar Tikri Kalan.

71

a) b)

Additional Industrial Areas will be indicated while preparing plans for Urban Extension Areas. The approved Work-cum-Industries Centres, Service Centres etc., where development has been undertaken in accordance with the land use / earlier Master Plans, shall continue to be industrial subject to conformity with provisions stipulated.

7.6.2 REDEVELOPMENT OF UNPLANNED INDUSTRIAL AREAS Besides the planned Industrial Areas, the Govt. of Delhi has notified following nonconforming clusters of industrial concentration having more than 70% plots in the cluster with industrial activities for redevelopment. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20.

Libaspur Peeragarhi Village Khyala Hastsal Pocket - D Shalamar Village New Mandoli Nawada Rithala Swarn Park Mundka Haiderpur Karawal Nagar Dabri Basai Darapur

The redevelopment process involves preparation of redevelopment plans for widening of roads, laying of services, development of open space and parking etc. In practical terms, these areas are deficient in terms of services and endanger the environment. The redevelopment of such areas needs to be based on clearly defined parameters in terms of the types of industries which may be permitted, spatial planning norms and environment related conditionalities regarding the provision of essential infrastructure with the participation of the owners / entrepreneur in a systematic manner.

72

7.6.2.1 Norms for Redevelopment of clusters of Industrial Concentration in Non Conforming Areas Keeping in view the existing realities, as well as the imperatives of planned development, the following norms will have to be followed in the redevelopment process. Non-conforming clusters of industrial concentration of minimum 4 hectare contiguous area, having more than 70% plots within the cluster under industrial activity / use may be considered for redevelopment of area identified on the basis of actual surveys. After notification of such clusters by GNCTD, the redevelopment scheme will have to be prepared by the concerned local body / land owning agency in consultation with the Society (to be formed by the land owners) based on the following norms / conditions: i) ii) The cluster should have direct approach from a road of at least 18 m R/W.

8.0 GOVERNMENT OFFICES

Delhi being the country's capital provides excellent opportunities in service sector. It has attracted people in government and quasi government sector from all parts of India. The growth in the sector was significant till 1981. However, as per the report on Economic Census, 2003, the employment in government sectors is on decline. The table below shows the growth of employment in different government sectors. Table 8.1: Employment in Govt. and Quasi Govt. Sector (in lakh) S.No. Category 1. 2. 3. 4.

8.1

DECENTRALIZATION OF OFFICES As per NCR Plan, no new Central Government and Public Sector Undertaking offices should be located in NCTD. However, the issue of shifting existing Government / PSU offices from Delhi as well as restricting the setting up of new offices would only be possible after a time bound action plan is prepared together with suitable incentives and disincentives.

8.2

OPTIMUM UTILIZATION OF GOVERNMENT LAND Government of India, Govt. of NCTD and local bodies are occupying prime land in Delhi for their offices. Most of the offices have been setup immediately after Independence. Large areas are underutilized and have completed their economic life. Due to downsizing of government employment and need for generation of resources by the ministries, optimum utilization of existing government offices / land could be achieved by the following measures:

87

i) ii) iii)

Intensive utilization of existing government offices / land. Utilization of Surplus land by the government for residential development. Utilization of 10% of total FAR for commercial uses to make the restructuring process financially feasible. This shall be subject to approval of land owning agency and concerned local body.

Major GNCTD Offices, which were located in Old Secretariat building, have been shifted to the new premises at Indraprastha Estate. Old Secretariat is a historical building and needs to be conserved. Barracks area adjacent to the Old Secretariat could be redeveloped to accommodate additional GNCTD Offices. Presently District courts are located at Tis Hazari, Karkarduma and Rohini Sub-city. Land has been earmarked at following locations to accommodate new District Courts. i) ii) iii) Near Saket District Centre -7 ha. Narela Sub-City - 3ha. Dwarka Sub-City- 3 ha.

Major employment of the Local Bodies and GNCTD should be accommodated in the public and semi-public facility areas such as health facilities, education etc. The head quarters of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi would be housed in the proposed Civic Centre under construction on Jawahar Lal Nehru Marg, which has been designated as Non-Hierarchical commercial centre. In the Urban Extension as far as possible, the government offices should be provided along the MRTS corridor. Four sites (10-15 Ha. each) for the offices of the Govt. of NCT Delhi, Courts and Local Bodies, etc. should be provided. Table 8.2: Use / Use Premises Development Controls - Govt.

9.0 ENVIRONMENT
Creation of a sustainable physical and social environment for improving quality of life is one of the major objectives of the plan. The almost unprecedented scale and speed of urbanisation in Delhi has resulted in enormous pressures on the physical environment with a severe adverse impact in terms of pollution, and today Delhi is considered to be among the most polluted cities in the world. The city's environment can essentially be seen in terms of two components of urban management- the environment per se, or the habitat, and services management. The former pertains to the natural features and resources including: the elements of air and noise, water (water bodies-river, lakes, drains and ponds and ground water) and land with reference to open spaces, green areas and other surface and sub-surface conditions. The latter is related to the built environment and includes the environmental infrastructure - water supply, sewerage, solid waste disposal and the transportation network. In the above stated background the following three fold approach and strategy will need to be adopted. i) Management of Natural Resources and the related environment infrastructure and services in a manner that would lead to optimisation of use of natural resources, and reduction / abatement of pollution. Conservation and Development of the Natural features with a view to enhancing their environmental value; and Development and preservation of open spaces, greens and landscape / recreational areas.

ii) iii)

A clear approach towards management of 4 types of wastes generated in Delhi, namely Solid Waste, Hazardous Waste, Bio-Medical Waste and Electronic Waste, should be adopted. The approach should take into account the need for adopting the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and the awareness of the carbon credits that can be earned and encashed through a planned and organized mechanism, to be developed for this purpose. 9.1 NATURAL RESOURCES Natural Resource Conservation includes management of water (surface and ground), air and noise. 9.1.1 a) WATER (SURFACE AND GROUND) The surface water resources in Delhi are basically comprised of the river Yamuna, drains and the lakes / ponds. The ground water in Delhi occurs in confined and semi-confined conditions, with depths varying from 1 m to 10 m below the ground level and in the alluvial terrain, several sandy aquifers occur at different levels upto a depth of 70 m.

90

Based on studies and statistics, some of the striking features that are revealed about the surface water resources in Delhi are: i. ii. The Yamuna river and the drains are highly polluted; The supply of water for human use is too much in absolute terms, but is characterized by iniquitous distribution in per capita terms in different areas, and significant wastage; Assuming that 80 percent of the water is converted into waste water, the capacity to treat waste water is grossly deficient; Various options for the reuse of treated waste water must be explored and implemented. The actual quantity of waste water treated is much below the installed capacity on account of missing links in sewer connectivity between the generation points and treatment plants and choking / silting of sewer lines, etc. The missing links in sewer connectivity must be covered for its continuity from the generation point to the treatment plant. The planned re-use of treated waste water is minuscule; The treated wastewater is being largely put back into the drains and gets polluted again before flowing into the river Yamuna, which receives 70 percent of its waste from the 22 kms. of its flow through urban Delhi which, in turn, constitutes only 2 percent of the total length of the river basin stretching from its point of origin till its merger into the Ganga at Allahabad; A large number of the traditional water bodies in the form of ponds, etc. (excluding areas of unintended water logging along railway tracks, highways and canals etc.) have been encroached or have otherwise become defunct.

v. vi.

viii. The standards for STP / CETP developed by Central Pollution Control Board / Delhi Pollution Control Committee should be adhered to. ix. The public participation and education programmes must be encouraged so that the sensitivity of the water resource is understood by the consumers, students and RWAs.

b)

Groundwater is one of the major sources for water supply in many parts of the country. In Delhi too, ground water contributes a substantial quantity of water supply. Especially in new development areas, groundwater is largely being used as drinking water resources. The Central Ground Water Board (CGWB) assessed the total groundwater potential to be 292 million cubic meters (MCM) in 2003 as compared to 428.07 MCM in 1983, showing an overdraft and reduction of around 130 MCM over the past 20 years. Out of the 6 blocks into which Delhi is divided, significant over drawl / reduction has been observed in the Najafgarh and Mehrauli blocks. Rapid urbanisation leading to reduction in recharge of aquifers, increasing demand in the agriculture, industrial and domestic sectors, stress put on groundwater resources in periods of drought/deficient rainfall, and unplanned withdrawal from the sub soil aquifers, have been mainly responsible for decline in groundwater levels.

91

The average annual rainfall in Delhi is 611 mm. However, recharge of ground water gets limited due to decreased availability of permeable surfaces owing to urbanisation, and the runoff getting diverted into the sewers or storm water drains that convey the water into the river Yamuna. The annual rainwater harvesting potential has been assessed at 900 billion litres or 2500 million litres per day. If even 25% of this could be harvested it would imply availability of 625 mld, which would be nearly equivalent to the presently estimated deficiency. This is in addition to the potential for roof water harvesting assessed at around 27 mld. The existing drainage basins shall have to be made self-sustainable in water management by integrating water-sewerage-drainage systems. New projects and upgradation of present infrastructure should be taken up in addition to promotion of water conservation through an integrated and a community driven model. Complimentary short term and long-term strategies as mentioned above will need to be initiated. c) Development of parks and green corridors along the Nallahs should incorporate conservation of ground water and water bodies. To recharge the ground water, conservation of water bodies and rainwater shall be essential. The area near Najafgarh Jheel and its surroundings and the Ridge can also be used as potential water conservation area. To increase sub-surface soil water through seepage of rain water, porous paving tiles should be used in the pavements and soft parking areas. All the new bridges / flyovers must have the provision for rain water harvesting. Water bodies, having a minimum size of surface area of 1 ha., shall be preserved by the concerned authorities. Further efforts shall be made at the local level to retain smaller water bodies. 9.1.2 AIR

d)

Despite various initiatives and measures taken over the past few years, like introduction of CNG and EURO II norms etc., the air quality in the city, in terms of pollution levels, has continued to be a matter of concern, and has been responsible for a number of respiratory diseases, heart ailments, eye irritation, asthma, etc. The three main sources of air pollution in Delhi are vehicular emission (around 70 percent) industrial emissions (around 20 percent) with a major element of this coming from the three thermal power plants, and from other sources such as diesel generator sets and domestic cooking, burning of biomass, etc. Apart from the issue of pollution on account of industries, the major area of planning and intervention would relate to transportation planning. With the phenomenal growth in the number of vehicles, almost 8-10 times in the last two decades in absolute terms, the most significant aspect in the context of congestion and pollution, relates to the growth in personalised transport as compared to the availability of public transport. It has been estimated that buses, which constitute barely 1.2 percent of the total number of vehicles, cater to around 60 percent of the total transport load, while personal vehicles -cars and scooters, though almost 93 percent of the total number of vehicles, cater to around only

92

30 percent of the travel demand. Such a huge share of private vehicles in Delhi, while serving a relatively limited purpose in terms of the transportation modal split, obviously creates tremendous pressure on road space, parking, and pollution directly and through congestion. Public transportation planning must, therefore, drive the future policy. So far public transport is largely seen as the transport mode for the not so well off and poorer sections of the community, who cannot afford to own / use personal transport. An important element of policy would now also have to aim to make public transport a mode for personal vehicle owners and users through a mix of incentives and disincentives. Apart from aspects like frequency, inter-modal integration, a possible single ticketing system, use of parking policy as a means to influence vehicle use, etc., the quality of public transport, particularly buses, would need to be significantly upgraded, inter-alia, keeping the element of clean transport in view. Another issue which has been raised in the context of vehicular congestion and pollution relates to the policy of mixed land use, which will also have to be carefully considered. The other elements which would need carefully thought out policy measures would relate to the operation of existing Power plants to significantly reduce the pollution arising from them, and industries, both in terms of pollution control in designated industrial areas, and relocation of non-conforming industries. As per the Government of India Notification, it is mandatory for all construction agencies to use Fly Ash bricks or tiles or clay fly ash bricks along with pond ash in the construction of roads / flyovers embankments and reclamation of low-lying areas. To control the ambient air quality of Delhi, it may be made mandatory that all commercial vehicles (like trucks and tempos) are converted into CNG. All Thermal Power plants located in the NCT of Delhi should be gradually converted to gas based plants. 9.1.3 NOISE

Noise is emerging as a major pollutant and irritant as well as a constant source of disturbance and health hazards. Against a permissible level of 50-60 dB (A), the sound level in Indian cities often exceeds 80 dB (A). Faulty and leaking silencers, over-use of horns and vehicles plying on roads accentuate noise level, besides the noise from commercial and industrial activities, unabated use of sound amplifiers, generator sets and fire- crackers etc. The Noise Pollution (Regulation & Control) Rules 2000 specify the noise levels in the industrial area, commercial area, residential area and silence zone. It also specifies banning of all noise creating activities between 10 PM to 6 AM, which may be adhered to by the concerned agencies. By proper land use planning, such as location of public, semi-public and commercial activities along major transport arteries, a buffer can be created for residential zones. Green buffer through thin leaved trees, land formations, mounds, embankments, etc.

93

along major roads could also provide effective barriers to transmission of noise. It is also necessary to improve monitoring and effective implementation of the Noise Pollution (Level) Rules 2000 and, to notify certain areas as 'No Horn Zones'. The design and surface material of roads and pavements should also ensure reduction of noise. The concerned authorities should prepare area wise traffic calming schemes and a Noise Monitoring and Control Plan (NMCP). Working in night shifts for household industries or non-conforming industries in the residential areas should be prohibited. Areas located within the air funnel should be planned with due consideration of noise generated from the aeroplanes. Environmentally stressed zones in Delhi should be identified and local area environment management plans should be prepared for such areas, together with regular monitoring. 9.2 NATURAL FEATURES The major natural features and eco-systems of Delhi are the river Yamuna, together with a network of streams / drains that empty into the river, and the Aravalli Range. Both of these are in a state of considerable degradation, and it is of vital importance to conserve and rejuvenate these ecosystems. This has regional bearing, therefore, surrounding states also have to contribute towards their conservation and rejuvenation. 9.2.1 RIVER YAMUNA

Once the lifeline, which spawned the many civilisations and Cities that grew in the area of the present NCT of Delhi, the River Yamuna today suffers from inadequate flow and quantum of water and an extremely high degree of pollution. The length of the river in the NCT of Delhi is 48 kms from Palla in the North to Okhla in the South, with a total river bed / flood plane area of around 97 sq.kms. which is about 7 percent of the total area of Delhi. A little over 50 percent of the river lies North of Wazirabad and the rest, around 22 kms., to its South, in the Urban area of Delhi. Apart from being the main sources of water supply for Delhi, it is one of the major sources of ground water recharge. However, over the years, rapid urbanisation, encroachments on the river banks, over exploitation of natural resources / water, and serious deficiencies and backlog in sanitation and waste water management services, have resulted in the dwindling of water flow in the river and extremely high levels of pollution in the form of BOD and Coliforms, etc. As against the stipulated 3mg/l, the designated water quality for bathing purposes, the water quality data for 2003-04 suggests that the BOD values range from 1-3 mg/l at Palla, 5.56 mg/l at Nizamuddin and nearly 7 mg/l at Okhla. Similarly, at all locations, except Palla, the total coliform levels are many times higher than the minimum tolerable standards for drinking and bathing purposes. The major source of pollution in the river to the extent of about 80%, is the discharge of treated and untreated waste water through the 22 major drains, which flow into the river(Annexure-I). The CPCB data shows that six of these drains viz. the Najafgarh and the Supplementary Drain, the Shahdara Drain, the Drain near Sarita Vihar, the Maharani Bagh Drain, the Barapulla drain and the Sen Nursing Home Drain contribute almost 90 percent of the flow and 80 percent BOD load levels respectively.

94

The concerned agencies must ensure that through public awareness campaigns, people are discouraged from throwing garbage into the river or the drains and measures are taken to prevent throwing of garbage by the habitations along side. Regular de-silting of the drains should also be undertaken. 1. a) Measures for rejuvenation of River Yamuna The issue of pollution in the river Yamuna has engaged the attention of the Supreme Court for the last several years, and it constituted a Committee with Secretary, Ministry of Urban Development as a Member, to draw up an Action plan for the cleaning / rejuvenation of the Yamuna River. A summary of the recommendations of the Committee is given in Annexure II. Apart from the above measures, steps would also need to be taken to augment ground recharge from the river and decentralised wastewater treatment system. The creation of 'regulated flood plane reservoirs', for storing the excess monsoon overflow at suitable locations would augment the water retention capacity of the riverbed. The upstream of Wazirabad Barrage and some other areas offer such a potential. To facilitate ground water recharge it may also be ensured that minimum required flow in the river during lean season exists. The reservoirs may be created in low-lying areas. At another level, a strategy for the conservation / development of the Yamuna River Bed area needs to be developed and implemented in a systematic manner. This issue is sensitive both in terms of the environment and public perceptions. Any such strategy will need to take into account the cycle of flood occurrences and flood zones, the ground water recharge potentials and requirements, potential for reclamation derived from the foregoing considerations, designation and delineation of appropriate land uses and aesthetics of the River Front which should be more fully integrated with the city and made more accessible-physically, functionally and visually. Environmental study of the existing major drains should be conducted before their covering. REGIONAL PARK

d) 9.2.2

The Aravalli Range in the NCT of Delhi comprises of the rocky outcrop stretching from the University in the North to the NCT Border in the South and beyond, and sizeable areas of the same have been designated as the Ridge. This is not a continuum as various intervening stretches have, over a period of time, been brought under urbanisation for example the Central Ridge area was planned as an integral part of New Delhi, at the time of the development of New Delhi as the Capital in the early part of the twentieth century. The Master Plan of Delhi - 2001 identified the Regional Park into four parts as below: 1. 2. 3. 4. Northern Ridge Central Ridge South Central Ridge (Mehrauli) Southern Ridge 87 ha. 864 ha. 626 ha. 6200 ha.

Subject to verification, the area of Regional Park is 7777 hectares. Part of this has been notified as Reserve Forest under the Indian Forest Act, 1927 vide Notification dated 24.5.94 and 02.04.96. There are discrepancies between the area notified and the physical boundaries of the total area owned by various agencies - DDA, CPWD, NDMC, MCD, Forest Department and the Ministry of Defence. Till the exact boundaries are identified by the Forest Department, the boundary indicated in the Master Plan for Delhi (land use plan) as Regional Park shall continue. 9.3 GREEN / RECREATIONAL AREAS Delhi has a much larger green cover than any of the other metropolitan city in the country, and could well be called a "Green City". The green / recreational use constitutes 8,722 ha of land as per MPD 2001, which is around 19% of the total urban land area of 44,777 ha. This includes 1577 ha. under the Northern, Central and South Central Ridge (the remaining area of the Ridge is in the rural area). The balance area under recreational / green use i.e. 7145 ha. is in the form of District Parks, City Parks, Community Parks etc. comprising around 15% of the total urban land area. In addition to this, a large chunk of green area is provided in the form of Neighborhood Parks / Tot lots in the gross residential use zones, plantations / greens in large campuses like President's Estate, JNU, IARI, Delhi University, plantations along drains and roadside plantations. In addition to above, two Biodiversity parks are under development by the DDA. In the Urban Extension the green cover is to be provided at the rate of 15% of the total land, excluding the Ridge / Regional Park. Out of this, some area shall be developed in the form of formal parks for the community and the rest shall be developed as woodlands and incidental greens for balancing the environment. This will be in addition to the development of specialized parks like Bio-Diversity Parks, plantation along the roads, drains, riverbank, etc. Further, Sports Complexes, which were included in the green / recreational use category under the MPD-2001 will be seen under a separate category of sports. One of the main reasons for this modification is that, Delhi is emerging as an important centre for National and International sports events. Sports facilities are being developed by various agencies besides DDA in Delhi, mostly as a part of recreational activity / facility. As a result there is still a need for planned and structured sports infrastructure which can take care of training needs of sportsmen and also act as integrated sports complexes for national and international events. This will not disturb the green areas, which are meant for recreational purposes. Keeping this in mind, sports facilities have been included as a part of social infrastructure, which in turn may help to develop better sports infrastructure for training needs, related logistics and sports medicine etc. This will also facilitate private participation. Integrated sports complexes are envisaged under one roof to accommodate variety of sports and related functions, by way of facilitating widerange of permissibility, ground coverage and FAR.

ANNEXURE II RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE COMMITTEE UNDER SECRETARY (UD) MOUD, GOVT. OF INDIA, FOR YAMUNA ACTION PLAN (2004) 1. 2. Minimum flow in river Yamuna to be ensured by Riparian states by releasing adequate water. Refurbishment of Trunk Sewerage System DJB has a network of approx. 130 Kms. length of trunk sewerage system to convey the collected sewage to different STPs for treatment. Nearly 91 Km of sewer lines are in highly dilapidated condition and have been silted to the extent of 50% to 70% at different stretches. Therefore, rehabilitation of following three major trunk sewers is proposed to be taken up under the Yamuna Action Plan. a) b) c) Rehabilitation of Ring Road trunk sewer under Yamuna Action Plan-II (YAP-II) Rehabilitation of Bela Road trunk sewer under YAP-II Rehabilitation of West Delhi trunk sewer under YAP-III

100

3.

Treatment of the flows in Najafgarh and Shahdara drains. The drains contributing maximum to the pollution load in the river water are Najafgarh and Shahdara drains. Action plan to check flows in Najafgarh Drain and Shahdara drain is recommended. The untreated sewage results in pollution of the water flowing in the drain and affects its quality by increasing BOD level and suspended solid. Majority of the untreated sewage is contributed by unauthorised colonies. It would be possible to treat this sewage only after laying of internal sewerage system or installation of decentralized treatment plants, which are proposed to be attempted by MCD on pilot basis.

4.

Laying of Sewer Lines in the un-sewered areas of Delhi DJB has pointed that it has laid internal sewerage system in 482 unauthorized / regularised colonies and in 98 urban villages of Delhi. The sewerage systems in 496 unauthorized / regularised colonies and 103 urban villages are likely to be laid by December 2005. In 516 unauthorized / regularised colonies and 105 urban villages, sewerage systems are expected to be completed by May 2006.

5.

Slum Cluster and Yamuna River Bed One of the contributory factors to the flow of untreated sewage into river Yamuna is the slum clusters that have come up unauthorisedly on both eastern and western bank of river Yamuna. Local bodies have already removed several JJ Clusters existing on the Western Bank. Slum clusters need to be cleared from riverbed.

6.

Treatment of Industrial Effluent Delhi Small Industries Development Corporation has constructed 10 Common Effluent Treatment Plants (CETPs) having an installed capacity of 133 mld for treating the industrial effluent before they are discharged into the drains/river. Better capacity utilisation and laying of conveyance system wherever required is needed.

7.

Utilisation of Treated Effluent Currently 109.5 MGD of treated effluent is being supplied by DJB to CPWD, DDA, Pragati Power Plant and Minor Irrigation Department. Additional 241 MGD is available for other user agencies. The issue of utilising the additional treated water is being deliberated by CPWD.

8.

Removal of Coliform at STPs The task force has set up a Committee to determine the permissible level of coliform in the treated wastewater and the process required for achieving the same keeping in view its techno-economic feasibility.

10.0 CONSERVATION OF BUILT HERITAGE

10.1 CONSERVATION OF BUILT HERITAGE Delhi is a historical city, whose remnants are spread right from Mehrauli to Shahjahanabad having large number of monuments scattered all over Delhi. The built heritage of Delhi is an irreplaceable and non-renewable cultural resource. Besides being part of life for many, it has educational, recreational and major tourism potential. It enhances Delhi's environment, giving it identity and character. It encompasses culture, lifestyles, design, materials, engineering and architecture. The Heritage Resources include symbols of successive civilizations and cities that came up over the millennia, historic buildings and complexes, historical gardens, water engineering structures and their catchments, the remains of fortified citadels, places for worship and for the deceased, historic cities and villages, unearthed heritage and their components. The surveys conducted by the DDA & INTACH identify 1208 historical monuments in Delhi of which the Archeological Survey of India has declared 170 monuments as protected. In addition to these MCD, NDMC and the State Archaeological Department have published lists of Heritage Buildings. 10.2 CONSERVATION STRATEGY The agencies concerned with the protection of Delhi's Built Heritage are ASI, GNCTD, State Archaeology Department, NDMC, MCD, Cantonment Board and DDA. Built heritage of Delhi needs to be protected, nourished and nurtured by all citizens and passed on to the coming generations. It is suggested that with the aim of framing policies and strategies for conservation, appropriate action plans may be prepared by all the agencies. These should include promotion of conservation of the civic and urban heritage, architecturally significant historical landmarks, living monuments, memorials and historical gardens, riverfront, city wall, gates, bridges, vistas, public places, edicts and the ridge. It is recommended that these should be suitably incorporated while preparing layout plans / schemes. In case of major monuments it is necessary that the surrounding area should be identified in the layout / detail plan, and should have building controls in relation to height, material and spread of the monuments. It will also be necessary to maintain close interaction and coordination between all these agencies keeping in view the following objectives and requirements. i. ii. iii. Maintain and update a database. Develop organizational capacity for heritage management. Define all the applicable terms.

102

iv.

Listing of Heritage Buildings based on the following criteria: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) The age of the building; Its special value for architectural or cultural reasons or historical periods; Its relevance to history; Its association with a well-known character or event; Its value as part of a group of buildings; The uniqueness of the building or any object or structures fixed to the building or forming part of the land and comprised within the curtilage of the building.

v. vi.

Prepare guidelines for development, redevelopment, additions alterations, repairs, renovations and reuse of the heritage buildings. Implementing programmes for education and awareness.

10.3 HERITAGE ZONES Heritage Zone is an area, which has significant concentration, linkage or continuity of buildings, structures, groups or complexes united historically or aesthetically by plan or physical development. The following areas have been identified as Heritage Zones as indicated in the Zonal Plan: i. ii. iii. iv. v. vi. Specific heritage complex within Walled City of Delhi, Shahjahanabad. Specific heritage complex within Lutyens Bungalow Zone. Specific heritage complex within Nizamuddin and Humayun's Tomb Complex. Specific heritage complex within Mehrauli area. Specific heritage complex within Vijay Mandal - Begumpur - Sarai Shahji - Lal Gumbad. Specific heritage complex within Chirag Delhi.

However more areas can be added to this list based on studies by concerned agencies. 10.4 ARCHAEOLOGICAL PARK Archaeological Park is an area distinguishable by heritage resource and land related to such resources, which has potential to become an interpretive and educational resource for the public in addition to the value as a tourist attraction All decisions regarding Built Heritage in general and Archeological Parks in particular should be based on evaluation of the pertinent aspects like form and design, materials and substance, use and function, traditions and techniques, location and setting, spirit and feeling and other internal and external factors.

103

The following areas have been designated as Archaeological Parks: i. ii. iii. Mehrauli Archaeological Park. Tughlaquabad Archaeological Park. Sultan Garhi Archaeological Park.

Other areas can be added to the list on the basis of studies. 10.5 SPECIAL CONSERVATION PLANS Each local body / land owning agency should formulate "Special Development Plans" for the conservation and improvement of listed heritage complexes and their appurtenant areas. Alteration or demolition of any listed heritage building is prohibited without the prior approval of the Competent Authority. The development plans / schemes for such areas shall conform to the provisions, in respect of Conservation of Heritage Sites including Heritage Buildings, Heritage Precincts and Natural Feature Areas.

104

11.0 URBAN DESIGN

A city is an assemblage of buildings and streets, system of communication and utilities, places of work, transportation, leisure and meeting places. The process of arranging these elements both functionally and beautifully is the essence of Urban Design. Delhi had a traditional Urban Design, which is reflected in the glory of 17th century Shahajahanabad and New Delhi. In the course of time Delhi has been becoming amorphous aggregate of masses and voids. The Walled City of Shahjahanabad has certain urban form characteristics. The Jama Masjid is a dominating feature located on hilltop and is different, both in form and scale from the other developments of the city. The boulevard of Chandni Chowk was its commercial centerpiece, with certain visual character terminating at two landmarks viz. Red Fort and Fatehpuri Mosque at its ends. In the planning of New Delhi in 1916, the Central Vista was conceived as a landscaped stretch to form continuity between the ridge and the river Yamuna. The stretch with the Rashtrapati Bhawan and the India Gate at two ends has tremendous visual quality and is one of the finest examples of Urban Design and monumentality in planning in the world. The Jama Masjid was visually linked with Parliament House and Connaught Place. The following aspects need to be considered to arrive at the basis for policies affecting the urban fabric: i) ii) iii) iv) v) vi) vii) viii) ix) Areas of significance in built environment. Visual integration of the city. Policy for tall buildings. Policy on unhindered access movement, parking and pedestrian realm. Policy on Hoardings, Street furniture and Signage. Urban Design Scheme. Policy for design of pedestrian realm. City structure plan and Urban Design objective. Policy for conservation of Heritage precincts Buildings and Zones.

11.1 SIGNIFICANT AREAS OF BUILT ENVIRONMENT The areas identified for Urban Design guidelines are as given below: 11.1.1 METROPOLITAN CITY CENTRE 1. Connaught Place and Extensions The various proposals are: i) Detailed Urban Design and Landscape Schemes should be prepared to integrate MRTS stations, safe pedestrian walkways, parking areas, recreational and cultural areas, etc.

105

ii)

The intermediate public transport such as monorail, battery operated / high capacity buses, sky buses should be introduced to increase the mobility within the City Centre. Activities such as viewing gallery, open-air theatres, amusement parks, mini-golf courses / sports activities, food plazas etc. should be introduced to make them more attractive even after working hours. The envelope, FAR, architectural features of the buildings in the Connaught Circus - Connaught Place should be retained as existing. Continuity of the sidewalks should be maintained in terms of the width, surface treatment, curb cuts, tree and street furniture locations, for the pedestrians and disabled. Use of alternative renewable sources of energy should be encouraged for new buildings (especially those of commercial or institutional nature), traffic signals and public signage, etc.

iii)

iv) v)

vi)

2. Walled City And Extensions The various proposals for revitalizing the glory of Walled City are: i) ii) iii) iv) v) vi) Conservation approach to retain the overall traditional character of the Walled City. Visual integration of major landmarks to revitalise the past glory. Many areas in Shahjahanabad should be pedestrianised and made completely free of vehicular traffic so as to restore the human scale and convenient living. Judicious use of existing spaces for development of recreational uses. MRTS station areas should be dealt as per specific Urban Design schemes and be declared as pedestrian zones. Introduction of activities such as traditional / craft bazaar / heritage walk / rides to attract tourists. Generation of urban culture at neighbourhood level such as festivals / fairs, kite flying etc. Environmental up-gradation to reduce degenerative effects of traffic congestion.

vii)

viii) Rejuvenation and conservation through management options, financing incentives, innovative development controls. 11.1.2 DISTRICT CENTRES A District Centre should have all the components to create a pleasant environment with easy accessibility from the major transport nodes and surrounding residential areas through pedestrian approach or by subways etc. Planned District Centres can be best utilized for creating public spaces.

106

11.1.3 OTHER AREAS Other areas of Urban Design importance are as follows: a. b. c. d. e. f. g. h. Central Vista and the areas in its North and South, Lutyen's Bungalow Zone. Ancient settlements. Historical Monuments and Gardens. Exhibition grounds, Zoo etc. Areas along entry routes and other important routes in Delhi. Republic day parade route. Road and Rail, MRTS corridors, entries, and terminals. City as a whole for aerial view.

11.2 VISUAL INTEGRATION Delhi has a tremendous diversity of built form, color, scale and texture with a heterogeneous end product from aesthetic point of view. Visual integration can possibly be achieved by identifying features such as appropriately conserved historic buildings and heritage zones, which integrate and provide strong visual identity. The important mass movement corridors i.e., Ring road / Outer ring road and major radials are used by city dwellers for internal city commuting. These corridors along with newly introduced MRTS corridors have potential to acquire an additional dimension of visual quality and integration. The studies and proposals for ring road and MRTS corridors should be formulated to improve, geometry, landscaping, street furniture, signage, introduction of urban forms at selected points and clearance of unsightly developments. Other important elements for the integration of different parts of the city, planned at different times are (i) flora i.e. tree plantation, (ii) linking open spaces and (iii) harmonious treatment for major ecological features i.e. the Ridge and the River Yamuna. 11.3 TALL BUILDINGS The height of buildings (above and below the ground) needs to be seen in the light of modern technology with due consideration for natural disasters like earthquakes, floods etc. Restrictions on tall buildings would be necessary in important areas like Lutyen's Bungalow Zone, Civil lines and North Delhi campus. In case of Urban Extension, areas for specific Urban Design projects and tall buildings should be identified. 11.4 URBAN CORRIDORS Delhi with huge intra city trip lengths and increasing number of personalized vehicles, few imperatives cannot be ignored for its sustainable and healthy growth, such as more dependency on efficient, convenient and safe modes of public transport, linking large number of work centres with residential areas and overall disincentives for the private vehicle ownership.

107

11.4.1 CITY GATEWAYS 1. Road: i) ii) iii) Non-residential public buildings with pleasing appearance should be located on entry corridors. Attractive landscape should be developed in accordance with the highway landscape norms. Segregation of goods and passenger vehicles at the entry point through separate lanes to improve the visual environment.

2. Rail: i) ii) iii) Enhancing visual experience for commuters through appropriate landscape along railway tracks. Reconstruction / redevelopment of existing stations should be undertaken through comprehensive Urban Design schemes. Attractive designs should be evolved for new stations.

3. Air: i) ii) Natural and built environment should be revitalized to give an impression of global city. The overall green cover in this zone should be enhanced and protected.

11.4.2 MRTS CORRIDOR City structure of Delhi had been conceived in terms of hierarchies with CBD, District Centres and Community Centres in descending order of importance. With the development and introduction of MRTS, need is felt to connect these scattered districts with more imageable components. These components with enhanced built up areas and activities, form a network by which the experience of various District and commercial centres becomes a part of continued urban experience. 11.5 SERVICES The organization of services makes the city to work along with the buildings and the open spaces. Services and public amenities should, therefore, be provided in a coordinated way, conforming to the National Building Code, wherever applicable. 11.5.1 PUBLIC AMENITIES The clean, litter free public spaces add to the pleasant built environment. Thus the design, location and maintenance of public amenities such as public toilets, garbage bins, bus stops, etc. determine the quality of public spaces. These should be located appropriately while formulating the schemes.

108

11.5.2 PARKING Access to the parking should be well defined and conducive to its usage, whether at the surface or underground. Basement parking lots need to be structured legibly and access to vertical cores clearly defined. Surface parking should be located in a manner that does not diminish or hinder the continuity and homogeneity of the spatial and pedestrian movement. 11.6 HOARDINGS, STREET FURNITURE & SIGNAGE Hoardings, sign boards, directional boards, bill boards, neon sign bards, balloons, banners etc. have become symbols of present day urban scape and important instruments of outdoor publicity and public information. These, if located properly and aesthetically, may enhance the visual quality of the city. Otherwise, these may cause hazards, obstruction and visual pollution etc. 11.6.1 STREET FURNITURE & SIGNAGE Public art is an important part of the urban spatial experience, which can be incorporated in the form of functional objects such as street furniture and paving designs. Street furniture and signage should be designed sensitively considering the land use, intensity of activity and other identified design districts. Their design must also reflect respect to pedestrians and physically challenged people. Access provisions for the physically challenged should be made from the street to overcome curb heights, rain water gratings etc. Parking spaces close to the entrance should be reserved for physically challenged. Exclusive parking bays are proposed near major intersections as part of road R/W with adequate landscaping to provide for parking of mobile repair vans, PCR vans, ambulances, cranes, fire tenders and other public utility vehicles. 11.6.2 ROAD SIGNAGE & SAFETY Safety of road users shall be one of the prime consideration while planning / designing of road network and infrastructure. A major cause for present day chaos on the roads is that the road infrastructure, signage and road markings are not in accordance to the standards laid down by the Motor Vehicle Rules and Highway Code. Appropriate road signage and markings are excellent means of educating road users about road safety rules and road discipline and add to the road beautification. These prevent the deviant behaviour of motorists and at the same time provide useful route related information. Concerned road owning agencies shall be responsible for installing the appropriate road signage and markings on regular basis.

109

Few other measures by the concerned agencies shall be: i. ii. iii. Provision of adequate pedestrian facilities. Removal of encroachments from footpaths. Improvement in accident handling and reporting.

11.7 PEDESTRIAN FRIENDLY CITY Major work centres, where large number of pedestrian networks emerge and culminate, should have enhanced facilities for the pedestrians. This will lead to more sensitive and intricate design of street furniture, making major image able components part of daily urban experience. Pedestrian networks affect spaces in a very distinctive way. Establishment of pedestrian networks in any area reveals its vitality. They provide richness in terms of spatial experience and community interaction etc. 11.8 URBAN DESIGN SCHEME In case of development / redevelopment of an area of around 4 ha., an Urban Design scheme shall be prepared for approval by the Competent Authority.

110

12.0 TRANSPORTATION
The period between 1981 and 2001 has seen a phenomenal increase in the growth of vehicles and traffic in Delhi. There has been a rise in per capita trip rate (excluding walk trips) from 0.72 in 1981 to 0.87 in 2001. Keeping in view the population growth, this translates into an increase from 45 lakh trips to around 118 lakh trips. The population of motor vehicles has increased from 5.13 lakh in 1981 to 32.38 lakh in 2001, and the number of buses has increased from 8,600 to 41,483 during this period. Besides the above, Delhi has developed as a borderless city and an urban continuum comprising of a number of rapidly growing towns in Haryana and UP. This has added to the flow and movement of traffic within Delhi. Despite measures by way of increasing the length of the road network and road surface space through widening, construction of a number of flyovers / grade separators and, launching of the Metro, the traffic congestion has continued to increase unabated. This has its inevitable consequences in terms of accidents, pollution, commuting time, and wasteful energy / fuel consumption. Based on the rate of increase in the number of trips between 1981 and 2001, it is estimated that the total trips would rise to 280 lakh by the year 2021, including 257 lakh motorized trips and 23 lakh non-motorized trips. In this context, it needs to be noted that roads already occupy 21 percent of the total area of the city, which clearly limits the potential for increase in road length. Apart from the problems and requirements of transportation at the macro level, there are special problems in specific areas, particularly the old city, which deserve special attention. Special requirements will also arise from the mega events such as the Commonwealth Games. The plan and strategy for transportation will have to be worked out in this background. The broad aim of this would be to ensure safe and economical commuting between place of origin and destination, convenient and quick access to all areas for all sections of the society, reduction of pollution and congestion, energy efficiency and conservation, safety for all sections of the road and transport users and, towards meeting these objectives, providing a significant increase in efficient rapid public transport systems and facilities with a corresponding reduction in individual private transport usage. This is in addition to pedestrianisation and properly planned use of non-motorised transport systems in specific areas. The following strategy is proposed in order to meet these objectives: i. Preparation and operationalisation of an integrated and mutually complementary multi-modal transportation and traffic plan comprising the Road, Rail and Metro-rail network, so that work centers / residences are within a walkable distance.

111

ii.

The multimodal system will be integrated with safe facilities for pedestrians, bicyclists, disabled persons and Intelligent Transport System (ITS) enabled taxis and three-wheeled scooter rickshaws (TSR). Optimal use and utilisation of the existing road network and full development of ROW by removing all impediments. All arterial roads will be restructured to allow for smooth and safe flow of buses and non-motorised transport to minimize pollution and congestion. Expansion and restructuring of the existing network through expressways, arterial roads, elevated distributors and relief roads with a view to creating alternate access ways and reducing congestion on the existing roads to the extent possible. Urban Relief Roads should also be identified as additional or alternative link roads, wherever possible, to reduce congestion. Planning of new road network in such a manner as to prevent possibilities of future congestion by modifying road sections to promote use of public transport, which would reduce use of private transport modes. Planned and targeted expansion of the Metro-rail network. Expansion and strengthening / restructuring of the Ring Rail System and sub-urban rail system.

iii.

iv.

v.

vi. vii.

viii. Developing an integrated relationship between the bus, rail and metro-system to provide for seamless multi-modal transport, through provision of additional stations, park and ride facilities, introduction of single multi-modal ticketing, etc. The choice of technology for the multimodal public transport system (Bus Rapid Transit System, Metro, Mono-Rail, Light Rail) be based on comparative costeffectiveness analysis studies to ensure rapid development of public transport and to ensure judicious use of public funds. ix. Development of a comprehensive parking policy in line with the broad aims of the Plan for transportation mentioned earlier, including measures for linking new vehicle registration with owner parking facilities. Establishment of a quick and efficient transport network between the NCR and the NCT of Delhi. Provision of directional Goods and Passenger Terminals with adequate infrastructure. Review of the licensing policy and systems, and effective arrangements for training of drivers / transport operators.

x. xi. xii.

It is proposed that unrestricted movement of buses, taxis and auto rickshaws be permitted within the National Capital Region by developing a consensus amongst the constituents of the NCR. 12.1 INTEGRATED MULTI-MODAL TRANSPORT SYSTEM Keeping in view the diverse built up physical forms within the city, it is logical to state that a single mode of transport cannot practically and effectively, serve the needs of

112

the city. Accordingly, an Integrated Multi-Modal Transport System suitable for the overall structure of the city and at the same time interlinking the various sub-structures is necessary. It is envisaged that the future transport system shall consist of a mix of rail and road based systems which may include Metro Rail, ring rail, dedicated rail corridors for daily commuters, (IRBT / RRTS corridors as identified in NCR Plan 2021), Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS), other mass transit modes as technologies become available and Intermediate Passenger Transport (IPT) and private modes on selected corridors to be identified as per the needs from time to time. All roads should be made pedestrian, disabled and bicycle friendly as far as possible. 12.2 METROPOLITAN TRANSPORT AUTHORITY Establishment of a single authority is the need of the hour for planning/development of an integrated system, implementation and enforcement of the policies, which may be framed in that context. Inter alia, this would help to avoid wasteful expenditure and other problems that could arise from duplication, overlap and even mutually exclusive / and contradictory facilities. Therefore, a single unified Metropolitan Transport Authority, on the lines recommended by the National Transport Policy Committee, needs to be established on priority. 12.3 ROADS Delhi is planned on a ring - radial pattern with a hierarchical road network. Broadly, the road network is designed for regional, intra - city and local traffic. The proposed roads are classified taking into account the land use pattern and road system hierarchy with recommended right of ways as follows: 1. National Highways The recommended minimum right of way (ROW) is 90 meters, wherever possible. However, within the city it shall not be less than 60meters. All the National Highways within the NCTD shall be access controlled upto the Delhi Border. 2. Arterial Roads These include primary roads with access control and other primary roads. i) Primary Roads: Vehicular routes carrying heavy volumes of traffic will generally have free / stable flow conditions with controlled access. The recommended ROW in existing urban area is 60-80 m. and minimum 80 m. in the proposed urban extension. While designing roads with 30m. ROW and above, provision should also be made for public mass rapid transport system, which may include BRT. Present ring road and outer ring road to be converted to access controlled arterial roads. Cycle tracks should also be constructed along all arterial roads wherever possible. Other Primary roads: Vehicular routes carrying heavy volumes of traffic, BRT route may also be allowed on these roads. The recommended ROW in existing urban area is 45-60 m. and minimum 60 m. in the proposed urban extension. Cycle tracks should also be constructed along all other primary roads wherever possible.

ii)

113

3. Sub Arterial Roads These include primary and secondary collector streets. (i) Primary Collector: These roads will connect major arterial roads and inter residential district collectors. The recommended ROW in existing urban area is 30-40 m. and minimum 45 m. in the proposed urban extension. In addition to this, a separate cycle track should be provided wherever possible. Secondary Collector: These roads are intended to collect traffic from local streets within one residential district. The recommended R/W in existing urban area is 18-24 m. and minimum 30 m. in the proposed urban extension.

(ii)

4. Local Streets These are intended for neighbourhood (or local) use on which through traffic is to be discouraged. The suggested ROW is 12 to 20 m. in the existing and proposed urban area. These roads should be made pedestrian and bicycle friendly by using modern traffic calming designs to keep the speeds within limits as per design. A special cell should be set up within Transport Deptt. for developing standards and guidelines for traffic calming designs and for their implementation in the whole city in a phased manner. In existing areas like Rohini project, having plot sizes below 90 sq.m., minimum ROW of 9 m. may continue. As a matter of general policy, it is proposed that for all categories of roads, the full cross section should be developed in future and no encroachments will be permitted on the existing road network. Further, the development of roads should start from the extremes of the designated ROW. 12.3.1 URBAN RELIEF ROADS In order to reduce congestion on the existing roads, it is proposed to identify additional / alternative links and access corridors. Such links termed as Urban Relief Roads, may be proposed subject to feasibility, along drains (including their covering), identification of new alignment, or upgradation / strengthening of an existing road / alignment or in the form of elevated roads/grade separators etc. All the options should be exercised for restoration of full ROW, including relaying of services etc., if affecting ROW. The following priority stretches for provision of Urban Relief Roads have been identified. i. ii. iii. iv. v. vi. Shankar Road - alternative elevated road may be explored. Vikas Marg Extension of NH-24 to join Mathura Road (near Humayun's Tomb). Prem Bari Pul (Pitampura) to Outer Ring Road along disused Western Yamuna Canal. Road between Nehru Place and Hotel Park Royal to be extended up to Lotus Temple and towards East of Kailash, if feasible. Badarpur Border entry point.

114

vii.

Karol Bagh (new Rohtak Road) -alternative alignment by extending Arya Samaj Road through Anand Parbat to connect existing roads leading to Patel Road and Shivaji Marg on ROB or RUB. viii. More bridges on river Yamuna (at Geeta Colony, Mayur Vihar, etc. - alignments of Platoon Bridges can be considered.) ix. Along drains passing through Lajpat Nagar, Defence Colony, Sarai Kale Khan, Lodhi Road, etc. x. Sarita Vihar (Junction of Mathura Road and Road No. 13-A) to Okhla Industrial Areas (road between Ph I and Ph. II to be connected by ROB or RUB). xi. Elevated road corridor between Connaught Place and East Delhi (Marginal Bundh Road). xii. Missing link and Outer Ring Road from NH-8 to Najafgarh Road. Additional stretches of missing links could be identified from time to time by the concerned agencies. Their project may be implemented after carrying out detailed studies. 12.3.2 UNDERGROUND ROADS Vehicular traffic is a major contributor to the air pollution in Delhi. In order to reduce road congestion and the level of pollution, the possibility of having Underground Roads or Tube roads in critical areas needs to be considered. Such measures, together with provision of Metro Services, will also help to make historically important areas like Connaught Place, Chandni Chowk and Karol Bagh etc. pedestrian friendly. With advancement in technology, and a better climate for private participation and investment in infrastructure development, such proposals could be explored. 12.3.3 GRADE SEPARATORS The Master Plan studies indicate the need for provision of intersections with grade separators. In case of existing grade separators the possibility of providing cloverleaves and direct interchanges, wherever necessary and feasible, may be examined in order to make the junctions signal free. To provide uninterrupted traffic movement various other options such as elevated roads with supporting infrastructure etc. will also need to be explored. In the proposed urban extension, space reservation is to be kept for provision of grade separators, cloverleaves and Left Slip roads at intersections of all roads of 30 m. and above ROW. However, grade separated junctions shall be considered if there is no other possibility of including traffic flow. Further it should also be ensured that pedestrians and bicyclists continue to have safe and convenient access to the junction. 12.3.4 FREEWAYS Freeways are defined as divided arterial highways for vehicular traffic with full access control and provided generally with grade separation at intersections. A freeway network in the NCR should be developed so that the cris-cross movement through Delhi is lessened.

115

With such a network of Freeways, Highways, MRTS and Electric Multiple Units (EMUs) a 2 to 3 hour movement network can be generated which will cover entire NCR. This will encourage interaction between Delhi and NCR towns. 12.4 MASS RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEM (MRTS) The Metro Rail System the most important, component, of a Mass Rapid Transport System (MRTS) in the City. The Metro Rail network for the entire city has been identified in various phases, which comprises of a network of underground, elevated and surface corridors aggregating to approximately 250 Kms., and is expected to carry 108 lakh daily passengers with an average trip length of 15 Km. by 2021. Phase I of the network is already implemented and operational. Phase-II of the network covering a length of 56.76 km is likely to be completed by 2010 for the following stretches. a. b. c. d. e. f. Vishwavidyalaya - Jahangir Puri. Central Secretariat - Qutab Minar. Indra Prastha - Yamuna Depot - New Ashok Nagar. Yamuna Depot - Anand Vihar ISBT. Shahdra - Seemapuri. Kirti Nagar - Nangloi along Rohtak Road.

Subsequent phases shall be worked out in conjunction with the overall circulation plan for the city. Rohini and Narela sub-city projects with population of more than 10 lakh each need to be connected to the MRTS. Following extensions of routes are proposed: i. ii. From existing Rithala Station upto Barwala (Rohini Ph.IV-V). From Sanjay Gandhi Transport Terminal to Narela.

Considering the future needs of the city additional links of MRTS may be identified by the DMRC. It is expected that about 60% of the urban area will be within 15-minute walking distance from the proposed MRTS stations, after full development of the system. Additional areas could come within easy access and connectivity with the Metro Rail through inter-linkages with other transport modes. About 15% of urban area of Delhi is likely to be directly affected, and may undergo a dramatic impact and change. Further, due to development of economic activities along the Metro Corridors and optimization of connectivity provided by it, the rider ship on the Metro is expected to grow substantially over time. Correspondingly, it is expected that vehicular trips may also progressively shift from road-based transport to MRTS, particularly, with reference to the longer trip lengths (greater than 10 Kms) within the city.

116

To achieve the above potential impact of the Metro Rail System a number of measures will be necessary. These will include the following: i. ii. Preparation of detailed plans to facilitate and encourage direct pedestrian access to the Metro Rail System / Station. Preparation of detailed multi-modal transport plans with reference to each major Metro Station, with particular reference to bus transport routes, which could provide inter-linkages and feeder arrangements. Parking arrangements at Metro Stations, both for short and medium period viz. for those who would travel for local level requirements such as shopping, etc. and those who would need parking by way of a Park and Ride facility. Provision of Park and Ride facilities at identified points from where feeder bus services would be available, or convenient direct pedestrian access would be feasible.

12.4.1 SYNERGY BETWEEN TRANSPORT AND LAND USE The concept of the Master Plan for Delhi 1962 was based on a poly-nodal, polycentric, distribution of work centres, largely based on road transport nodes. A major fall-out of this has been distortion between infrastructure, transport and land use. To achieve spatial balance, development should take place according to new corridors of mass movement. This has implications in terms of land use planning along major transport corridors and the Mass Rapid Transport / Transit System. This would not only help to solve, to some extent, the enormous problems of mass transportation, but would also generate a dynamic potential for growth and employment. This is particularly true for the Metro Rail System. In this context the Metro corridors upto a certain depth would require selective re-development and re-densification / intensification of existing land uses based on site conditions. It is proposed that comprehensive redevelopment schemes of the influence area of MRTS stations be prepared. 12.5 BUS Apart from the Metro Rail System, buses will continue to be other major public transport in the city. The Bus Transport system is presently estimated to carry around 23.40 lakh passengers per day (2002). Even after the introduction / expansion of the Metro, major dependence will continue to be on Bus Transport as a form of comfortable and convenient public movement within the city. However, keeping in view the extension of road network in Delhi on one hand and the existing/likely congestion on the roads on the other, it is necessary to take steps for rationalization of Bus Transport. This would entail action on the following fronts: i. ii. iii. Bus connectivity would need to be planned to a considerable extent in the form of feeder services to the Metro Rail Stations and the Ring Rail System. Park and ride facilities will have to be developed at important bus terminals. The quality and design of buses would have to be significantly upgraded with a view to providing comfort to the riders and thereby make bus travel a part of

117

an efficient mass public transport system which could also help to reduce individualized / private vehicle usage. iv. On all roads with ROW greater than 30 m exclusive bus lanes will be planned to implement the Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS) in a phased manner to cover the whole city. New bus terminals need to be planned and developed in strategic locations to make the use of BRTS and Metro Stations convenient for all commuters.

v.

12.6 BICYCLE / CYCLE-RICKSHAW Bicycle/ Cycle-Rickshaw could be an important mode of travel, particularly with reference to short and medium trip lengths. To the extent that it meets individual or public transport requirements, it is a non-energy consuming and non-polluting mode of transport. However, there are several issues, which have to be kept in view while planning in respect of these modes. With a mixed type of fast moving traffic on the roads, travel by bicycle and rickshaws is very unsafe. In so far as rickshaws are concerned, apart from issues pertaining to the aspect of mixed traffic, this mode also provided employment to a very large number of unskilled workers residing in the city. In view of the above, the following actions should be considered / taken: i. ii. iii. On all arterial roads fully segregated cycle tracks should be provided with provision for safe parking in park and ride lots. In urban extension, cycle tracks should be provided at the sub-arterial and local level roads and streets. In specific areas, like the Walled City / Chandni Chowk / Sadar Bazar / Karol Bagh / Lajpat Nagar and Trans Yamuna Area, the use of cycles/rickshaw as a nonmotorised mode of transport should be consciously planned along with pedestrianisation.

12.7 TRANSPORTATION FOR SPECIAL AREAS Central congested areas of the Walled City, Sadar Bazar, Karol Bagh and other similar areas like certain Trans Yamuna areas are characterized by heavy traffic congestion. In order to address this problem a medium capacity Mass Transit system comprising of BRTS, Light Rail Transit System (LRT) and battery operated bus system may be considered on selected routes based on feasibility. For proper functioning of above said systems a restraint on the use of private modes and provision of parking would be required. This would be necessary in order to revitalize the area and to improve its environment quality. This will also increase accessibility to such areas considerably.

118

In order to manage the additional traffic of Metro stations at Old Delhi, Chandni Chowk and Chawri Bazar, the following management measures are required to be taken:i. ii. iii. iv. Need based Traffic circulation schemes integrating various modes. Improvement of major road stretches and intersections like Ajmeri Gate, Fountain Chowk. Fatehpuri Chowk, Kaudia Pul, Khari Baoli, etc. Removal of encroachments from footpaths to facilitate smooth movement. The movement of heavy vehicles will continue to be banned in the Walled City. However, for the services of this area Light Commercial goods vehicles may be allowed during the night.

12.8 RAIL In the National Capital Territory of Delhi both intercity and intra-city passenger movements are being catered to by the existing rail network comprising the Regional and Ring Rail Systems respectively. In order to improve the rider-ship on Ring Rail, the following is proposed: a) Intensive land use around the following: i. ii. iii. iv. b) Anand Parbat INA Colony Pusa Institute Kirti Nagar

Accessibility improvement and augmentation of infrastructure on ring rail stations: i. ii. iii. iv. v. vi. Shivaji Bridge Bhairon Marg Kasturba Nagar (Sewa Nagar) Lajpat Nagar Kirti Nagar Shakur Basti

c)

Provision of Halt Stations on ring rail at the following locations: i. ii. iii. iv. v. vi. Moti Bagh Bhairon Road Hans Bhawan (ITO) Ganesh Nagar Preet Vihar Shyamlal College.

119

The interchange points of Regional Road, MRTS, Ring Rail and any other future rail network should be developed as interchange stations / convergence zone. The change over facilities should include approach roads, pedestrian walkways, shuttle services, wherever feasible parking, areas for various modes including feeder buses, and adequate public conveniences, etc. 12.9 MODAL SPLIT The transport network is based on the modal split for Delhi to move 280 lakh trips by the year 2021as given below: 1. Present Scenario As per Modal Split (2001) among the vehicular trips, maximum 60% trips are being performed by buses, which include chartered and school buses. The personalised modes of transport are carrying about 35.9% of vehicular trips. The modal split projected for the years 2011 and 2021 is as follows: Table 12.1 Modal Split Projections Mode Modal Split (%) 2011 Public Transport (including Rail / Light Rail / MRTS / IRBT / Bus / Tram) Personal modes (including Personal Fast Modes / Hired Fast Modes / Hired Slow Modes / Bicycle) 12.10 INTERCITY PASSENGER MOVEMENT In 2001, on a normal weekday 56.46% of the commuters visited Delhi by Road, 42.67% by Rail and 0.87% by Air. Table 12.2: Passenger Trips at Outer Cordons per Day Medium Road Total Passengers 15.98 lakh (56.46%) 12.08 lakh (42.67%) 0.22 lakh (0.87%) Commuters 70.25 29.75 2021 80.0 20.0

12.10.1 RAIL At present there are 43 railway stations in Delhi. The total passengers catered to at these stations in 2001 are 12.08 lakh / day including about 9.06 lakh commuters. Out of these stations, major stations catering more than 1.0 lakh passengers per day are: Delhi Junction New Delhi Nizamuddin Sadar Bazar 2.72 lakh 3.19 lakh 1.28 lakh 1.00 lakh

Five directional Metropolitan Passenger Terminals (MPT) have been proposed to decongest the central area. These are: i. ii. iii. iv. v. Anand Vihar, East Delhi Bhartal in Dwarka, South-West Delhi Holumbi Kalan in Narela, North Delhi Tikri Kalan, West Delhi Hazrat Nizammudin, South West Delhi

It is proposed to integrate the Inter State Bus Terminus with Delhi main railway station and the land should be made available by the shifting the IP University to the new campus. Since about 75% of the total passengers are commuters, therefore in order to facilitate improvement in their movement between Delhi and surrounding towns either of the following is proposed based on the feasibility by the concerned authorities: i. ii. Extension of MRTS. Provision of dedicated railway corridor with supplementary feeder bus services for linking with other modes of transport (IRBT Corridors).

12.10.2 BUS The total passenger trips per day catered by road-based transport are 15.97 lakh, out of which about 9.54 lakh (60%) are commuters. Majority of such trips are by bus. Out of four new Interstate Bus Terminals (ISBT) as proposed in MPD-2001, only one at Anand Vihar in East Delhi has been developed as a part of Metropolitan Rail Terminal. The terminal at Dwarka (Bhartal) has also been included in Dwarka Project. The remaining two terminals at Okhla (Madanpur Khadar) and Narela (Holumbi Kalan) have not been developed. In order to cater to the additional passenger requirements, it is proposed to develop the following ISBTs (10 Ha each) along the Metropolitan Passenger Terminals:

121

i. ii. iii. iv.

At Bhartal, Dwarka. At Holambi Kalan, Narela Subcity. At Sarai Kale Khan. the existing Bus terminal should be upgraded and be linked to Hazrat Nizammudin Railway Station. At Tikri Kalan.

Apart from above ISBT, it is proposed to identify exclusive bus terminal sites at the intersection points of NH and outer ring road / ring road to cater to the passenger movement. These could be developed at: i. ii. iii. iv. Dhaula Kuan. IFC Madanpur Khadar to relieve Intercity Passenger congestion at Ashram Chowk. Tikri Kalan to relieve Intercity Passenger congestion at Peeragarhi Chowk. Narela to relieve Intercity Passenger congestion at Outer Ring Road and G.T. Karnal Road Junction-Jahangirpuri Byepass.

A smaller Terminal at Narela Railway Station and ISBT along G.T. Road may be considered. This concept can be applied wherever possible to intercept Intercity Passenger Traffic at Arterial roads. 12.10.3 AIR The International and Domestic air passenger movement in Delhi is catered by Indira Gandhi International Airport and Palam Airport respectively. Both the Airports have been linked to other parts of the city and urban extension through the transport network to facilitate fast movement. The passenger movement by air in Delhi on an average day in 2001, was as under: Table 12.3: Distribution of Daily Air Passengers Airport Domestic Airport International Airport Total Number of Travelers (%) 12450 (82.0) 10120 (77.0) 22570 (80.0) Number of Visitors, Staff (%) 2650 (18.0) 3000 (23.0) 5650 (20.0) Total Nos., (%) 15100 (100.0) 13120 (100.0) 28220 (100.0)

A strong and vibrant economy of Delhi Metropolitan Area provides a backdrop to a healthy demand for air travel. IGI Airport, Delhi has witnessed a phenomenal growth of traffic during the last few years both on account of business travel and

122

leisure trips. Total passenger traffic through Delhi Airport grew by 27.4% in 2005 -06 over the previous year and reached an annual figure of 162 lakh. According to the current forecasts, the passenger traffic through Delhi Airport is expected to increase to 290 lakh in 2010 and 370 lakh in 2012. In terms of air cargo traffic, Delhi airport handled 383,000 tons of cargo during 2005-06, and this is estimated to grow to 540,000 tons in 2010 and 638,000 tons during 2012. Longterm forecasts indicate that Delhi Airport would be handling over 1000 lakh passengers and 3.6 million tons of cargo in the year 2036. In order to meet the requirements of growing traffic and to upgrade the facilities to world-class standards, phased development of the airport has been initiated according to a Master Plan. The first phase of development is scheduled to be completed in early 2010, in line with the Commonwealth Games being hosted in Delhi. The airport may be connected by an expanded NH-8, as well as the MRTS by providing a rail station close to the passenger terminal to shorten the journey time. The development of the airport will also require augmentation of utilities serving the airport, particularly power supply, water supply and drainage facilities. 12.10.4 GOODS MOVEMENT

With the expansion of commercial and industrial activities in Delhi Metropolitan Area, the goods movement within urban area and outside has grown considerably, leading to environmental deterioration in the city. In 2001, on an average day, the goods movement by various modes at outer cordons in Delhi was as under: Table 12.4: Goods Traffic at Outer Cordons Road Rail Air 1. Goods movement by Rail Presently the goods are terminating as below: Iron and Steel Food Grains Coal Fruits and Vegetables Fuel Cement Tuglaqabad (Bahadurgarh) thereafter by road to Naraina Delhi Cantt., Narela, Ghevra Badarpur Border, Rajghat, I.P.Thermal Power Station. Naya Azadpur Shakur Basti Shakur Basti, Naya Azadpur, Safdarjung Rail siding. 68808 vehicles / day 1463 wagons / day 644 tonnes / day

123

2. Goods movement by Road Out of the total Goods traffic volume, major share is handled by the points at NH8, NH-1, NH-24 and Kalindi Kunj. On an average day in 2001, about 68,808 goods vehicles were entering and/or leaving Delhi. Movement of incoming / outgoing goods traffic in 2001, on different highways and other major roads on average weekday, is given as under: Table 12.5: Directional Distribution of Daily Goods Traffic in Delhi - 2001 Name of Location South and South East Kalindi Kunj Badarpur Border (NH-2) North and North East Singhu Border (NH-1) Loni Border West Tikri Border (NH-10) South West Sirhole Border (NH-8) Dundahera Border East Ghaziabad Border (NH-24) Chilla Check Post Jhundupura Gazipur 12.11 INTEGRATED FREIGHT COMPLEXES Integrated Freight Complexes have been recommended for the integration of goods movement by road and rail. These would consist of wholesale market, warehousing, road for trucks and rail transport terminals so as to curtail the movement of heavy vehicles within the complex. The freight complexes are to be located in the places where they intercept the maximum possible regional goods traffic entering Delhi. 7914 2101 1376 2220 11.51 3.05 2.01 3.22 9139 4933 13.28 7.17 4460 6.48 8542 4881 12.41 7.10 9948 5993 14.46 8.71 No. of Goods Vehicles Modal Share (%)

Based on the pattern of goods traffic movement in Delhi, following four sites for Integrated Freight Complexes (IFC), are presently at various stages of planning and / or development and one more new site is proposed in Urban Extension area. These freight complexes shall be dedicated to meet the demand of Delhi's needs and not cater to the distributive requirements of regional goods. i. ii. iii. iv. v.

12.12 FUEL STATIONS The environmental concerns have been constantly advocating identification of clean and environment friendly fuels. Presently, the main fuel types being used include: Petrol, Diesel and CNG. These fuels are being made available from Petrol Pumps and CNG stations. With the advancement of technology some new types of clean fuels may also be used in future. CNG stations may be permitted in all use zones except in Regional park / Ridge, developed District Parks. Petrol pumps are permissible in all use zones except in Recreational use zone. 12.12.1 FUEL STATIONS IN URBAN AREAS. Fuel Stations are permissible on Master Plan / Zonal Plan roads and shall not be permitted in absence of an approved Zonal Plan of the area. At the time of preparation of layout plans of various use zones namely, residential commercial, industrial, PSP facilities and other areas the location of Fuel Stations should be provided as per the norms given in Table 12.6. 12.12.2 DEVELOPMENT CONTROL NORMS AND PERMISSIBILITY

The regulations for locating the fuel stations -cum-service stations, the development control and permissibility shall be governed by the policy / decision by competent Authority / Government Notifications issued from time to time. New fuel stations shall be regulated by the following controls: i. ii. iii. Fuel stations shall be located on roads of minimum 30m ROW. The plot size for fuel stations shall be minimum of 30m X 36m and maximum of 33m X 45m (75m X 40m for CNG mother station as per requirement). The minimum distance of plot from the road intersections shall be as follows: a. b. c. For minor roads having less than 30m ROW- 50m For roads of ROW 30m or more- 100m Frontage of plots should not be less than 30m.

12.13 PARKING With the phenomenal increase in personalized motor vehicles, one of the major problems being faced today is an acute shortage of parking space. In the absence of adequate organized parking space and facilities, valuable road space is being used for vehicular parking. The problem of parking in the city can be broadly divided into the following categories: i) Along streets, which are commercialised. ii) In planned commercial centres. iii) In residential colonies. iv) In the large institutional complexes.
1. Substituted vide S.O. 2034(E) dated 12-08-2008

126

The experience has shown that: (a) (b) The provisions relating to parking within the plot area are normally not adhered resulting in vehicles spilling over on to the roads and adding to congestion; and The norms themselves appear to be considerably on the lower side keeping in view the actual vehicle use, both in terms of the multiple vehicle ownership in the same family and the pattern of individual private vehicle use.

In the above background, the whole subject of parking has become a matter of serious public concern and requires a carefully considered policy and planned measures to alleviate the problem to the maximum feasible extent in existing areas and for adequate provisioning with reference to future developments. As recommended by the Environment Pollution (Prevention & Control) Authority for the National Capital Region, the approach should be focused more on demand management (restricting vehicle numbers) through enforcement and pricing policy rather than only on increasing supply of parking. In this background, the following measures are proposed: 12.13.1 PARK AND RIDE Apart from providing Park and Ride facilities with reference to integration between the Road and Metro Rail / Rail Transport systems, such facilities would also need to be provided to reduce the problem of parking on main arterial roads in the context of identified work and activity centres which may not be directly connected by the MRTS and to encourage use of public transport. 12.13.2 PUBLIC PARKING The major efforts will have to come through the creation of public facilities in designated commercial / work centres and other areas and corridors where significant commercial activity has developed by way of mixed use. In the context of the latter, it would also need to be linked to pedestrianisation within the identified areas. In the above context following steps would be necessary: i. All existing areas of concentration of business / commercial activity, where absence of adequate parking and congestion is visible, should be identified and listed, and based on studies of vehicle volumes specific projects for multi level parking, using the latest available technologies should be formulated and implemented in a time bound manner. Major corridors along which commercial activity has grown over the years by way of mixed land use with / without authorisation should be identified and taken up for redevelopment with a major objective being the identification and development of open areas for parking, green development and pedestrianisation. In all new Commercial / Business / Industrial centres, adequate parking on the surface as well as below and above the ground must be provided. Revised norms in terms of Equivalent Car Space (ECS) are being provided and would need to be strictly adhered to and enforced.

ii.

iii.

127

iv.

The development of multi level parking facilities may be taken up, wherever, feasible in a public private partnership framework, with private sector investment and involvement, for which incentives may be provided by way of land use and FAR etc. The use of basement wherever provided for parking, must be strictly adhered to. Stringent provisions by way of fine and other penal actions need to be provided for violation of parking rules. A graded parking fees structure should be evolved as of measure of parking demand management, and encouraging use of public transport.

v. vi. vii.

viii. Serious consideration should be given to evolve a policy linking registration of new vehicles to availability of owner parking facilities. ix. All encroachments on land earmarked for public parking should be removed. However, Public Parking Areas may be used for Second Hand Car Bazaar on payment basis, only during holidays subject to meeting requirement / conditions of the concerned authorities. Wherever feasible, space on roofs, under stilts and basements should be exploited to the optimum for parking so as to reserve the max. ground space for landscape development, pedestrian movement etc.

x.

12.13.3 PARKING FACILITIES IN DTC DEPOTS The use of DTC terminals and depots for development of public parking alongwith parking of DTC buses, private buses and Chartered buses, should be explored and specific projects developed. 12.13.4 UNDERGROUND PARKING Based on the site feasibility, parking facilities can be created under the open spaces without disturbing the green areas on the surface and surrounding environment. The approvals from the concerned agencies are mandatory before taking up such works. 12.13.5 PARKING IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS Over the years a large number of the residential areas have been experiencing severe problems of vehicular congestion and shortage of parking space. Most of the parking is, in fact, being done on the road, which significantly reduces the carriageway width. The problem has been exacerbated by the traffic congestion generated by schools in gross residential use areas. Some measures required to alleviate the problem, to some extent, will be as under: i. ii. All the encroachments on residential streets in the form of kitchen gardens / roadside private greens, large projections / ramps, etc. need to be removed. Road cross sections may be redesigned wherever possible to accommodate planned car parking along the residential streets, and also creating more surface movement space.

128

iii. iv.

Other options, in selected areas, such as creation of underground parking below parks and open spaces will also have to be considered. Resident Welfare Associations will have to be called upon to participate in this process by raising contributions from the residents on the basis of objective criteria such as number of cars owned, etc. Problem of congestion arising on account of the traffic generated by schools have to be specifically addressed, and the main responsibility for putting up the required additional facilities has to be borne by the schools themselves. Policy guidelines will have to be evolved for this purpose.

v.

12.13.6 PARKING STANDARDS Parking is one of the utilities permitted in all use zones except in regional park / ridge, developed recreational areas and parks as per the approved layout plan. Parking standard have been prescribed in each use premises. However, where not prescribed, these will be followed as per standards given in Development Code section of the Master Plan.

13.0 SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE

The quality of life in any urban centre depends upon the availability of and accessibility to quality social infrastructure. Social infrastructure can be looked at in terms of the facilities indicated in the City Level Master Plan, and Community Facilities, which are indicated at the layout plan level in various use zones. Together, these include social infrastructure facilities pertaining to health, education, sports facilities, socio-cultural activities, communications, security and safety, and other community facilities pertaining to recreation, religious activities, social congregations and community events, cremation / burial grounds etc. These are generally planned in terms of population norms with stipulated permissibility conditions and development controls. 13.1 HEALTH The capital city is strategically located and has many specialised health facilities, which serve the city population as well as that of the region, and in many respects the country as a whole. As per available statistics, there are 23 types of health units (facilities) in Delhi. The total numbers of health units are 1914 and the number of beds is 30,667. The existing bed density per thousand population in Delhi works out to only 2.2. The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended a norm of 5 beds per thousand population. It is estimated that the total number of beds required in the year 2021 will be about 1,15,000. The following broad strategies are proposed in order to meet the requirements of health related infrastructure: i. Shortfall in the availability of number of beds per 1000 population is proposed to be met througha) b) c) Enhancement in FAR for various levels of health facilities; Promoting rebuilding of the existing old hospitals and; Shifting of contagious diseases hospitals from existing urban areas to the proposed urban extension with proper seclusion facilities and connectivity, and using the space thus made available for general hospitals.

ii.

Essential provisions shall be made for Old Age Home-cum-Care Centres for Senior Citizens and Mentally Challenged by way of specialised / target group oriented facilities, which will also relieve the pressure on general hospitals to some extent. Premises earmarked for health facilities should also include other medical streams like Ayurvedic / Homeopathic medicine, governed by any statutory code / body. Complementary health facilities at par should be developed in the NCR to reduce burden on Delhi.

iii. iv.

134

There shall be following 5-tiers health facilities for the city population: i. Hospitals category: a) b) c) d) e) Category A- 501 beds and above; Category B- 201 beds to 500 beds; Category C- 101 beds to 200 beds; Category D- Upto 100 beds Other health facilities, which include maternity home, nursing home, family welfare centre, polyclinic, pediatrics centre, geriatric centre, diagnostic centre, etc.

ii.

For health care of animals and pets the following 3 tier of health facilities has been proposed: a) b) c) Veterinary Hospitals for pet / domestic animals and birds shall be provided as per need. Dispensary for pet animals and birds shall be provided in all the zones at Community Level. Pet clinic is permitted in all landuse zones except in Recreational use zone.

13.2

EDUCATION The literacy rate in Delhi has increased from 75.3% in the year 1991 to 81.82% in the year 2001. In overall terms Delhi has a fairly elaborate network of educational institutions from the pre-primary / primary to the higher education and professional education levels. At present there are 2416 primary schools, 755 middle schools, and 1576 secondary / senior secondary schools. At the higher/ professional education levels, there are 114 colleges for general education, 8 engineering colleges, 4 universities, 7 deemed universities and one Open University. However, there is a deficiency in few planning zones, particularly in the field of school education. Further, keeping in view the fast changing national and global economic scenario, the employment and educational requirements are also undergoing a rapid change involving the development of new professional and vocational avenues for specialised education. A number of coaching centres, computer training institutes and language / training classes are opening up. However, these are mainly operated by the private sector. Suitable provision for such centres in commercial areas is desirable with a view to enhancing the financial resources of the concerned land owning agency. With the consequent potential for availability of financial resources for this purpose, involvement of the private sector in the development of educational facilities is growing. Keeping the need for expansion and diversification as brought out above, the availability of land could become a major constraining factor. It has, therefore, become necessary to develop policies and norms, which would enable optimal utilisation of land and available educational infrastructure. As far as school education is concerned, the policy should be geared to encourage integrated schools from the pre-primary to the higher secondary level, rather than allocating space separately for Nursery Schools, Primary Schools and Middle Schools. Primary Schools may specifically be set up by the Delhi Government or the Local Civic Bodies.

137

Following planning policy parameters are proposed: i) Differential norms and standards for various educational institutes / institutions shall be applicable in the light of the norms of the concerned controlling authorities e.g. University Grants Commission (UGC) / All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) / Directorate of Education, GNCTD / Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) etc. Coaching centres / vocational training centres would be permissible in school classes after school hours with (a) prior approval of Competent Authority in the case of schools run by GNCTD or local body and (b) with prior intimation to lessor and payment of fee to be prescribed in the case of schools run privately on leased land. Structured courses leading directly to degree / diploma shall however not be permitted.

ii)

iii) The educational institution premises may be permitted to function in two shifts, subject to statutory approvals and any other conditions that may be stipulated by the relevant competent authority. iv) Nursery School may function as part of Primary School / Secondary School / Senior Secondary School, wherever needed. Separate / exclusive Nursery Schools are permitted in residential premises as per the Mixed-use policy. Requirement of schools and training centres for mentally and physically challenged with differential development norms are given. Table 13.3: Sl.No. Category 1. 2. 3. 4.

SPORTS FACILITIES Delhi is emerging as an important centre for National and International Sports events. Sizeable sports facilities have been developed in the City by various agencies like the Sports Authority of India (SAI), Delhi Development Authority (DDA), GNCTD, etc. However, sports activities, so far, been dealt with as a part of Recreational use. It is also felt that many of the facilities, which have been developed, could actually be seen as recreation and / or club type of facilities. As a result, even though the DDA has developed a large network of excellent sports facilities, over and above the facilities developed by the SAI, etc. there is an evident need for a properly planned and structured sports infrastructure in the city which, inter alia, should also be able to take care of mega / international sporting events, such as the forthcoming Commonwealth Games in 2010. Even the various facilities, which have been developed as pure sports facilities, suffer from lack of full and proper utilisation, and there are issues related to maintenance and resources for the same. With reference to the latter, for example, the Jawahar Lal Nehru Stadium premises are, on the one hand, presently under use for a variety of non-sports related activities and on the other hand, the Stadium itself cannot be used for anything but sports activities. The latter aspect, in turn, is characterised by gross under utilisation. This also brings out the need for developing and prescribing planning and development control norms geared to planned, practical and proper development of sports facilities as an important component of social development and optimum utilisation of the facilities to be developed. In addition to the above, there is a trend for development of gyms, spas, bowling alleys etc. at neighbourhood level. Since these are mostly being established as commercial ventures, provision of land / space for these should be made in commercial premises. 13.3.1 PROVISION OF SPORTS FACILITIES Sports activities are an important part of physical and social development of an individual and, at another level sports activities have a significant aspect of, and potential in the form of congregational and competitive events at the community, city, national and international levels. Keeping this in view norms and space standards separately for sports facilities at neighbourhood level and city level have been proposed with the aim of development of sports and play areas for all age groups at appropriate levels.

COMMUNICATIONS - POST / TELEGRAPH / TELEPHONE FACILITY With liberalisation and technological advancement, communication has become very important medium of accessibility. Following means of communication are available: 13.4.1 POST AND TELEGRAPH Post and Telegraph is one of the most popular means of communication. The provision and management of Post and Telegraph facility in Delhi is the responsibility of Post Master General of Delhi Circle. At present Delhi has 553 post offices and 36 telegraph offices. Although, the number of telegraph offices is decreasing due to availability of other easier, cheaper and faster modes of communication these facilities still serve considerable population both at the city level and National level. The future space norms have been worked out accordingly.

142

13.4.2 TELEPHONE With privatisation of tele-communication sector most of the space requirement is expected to be satisfied in private sector. There are 267 telephone exchanges in Delhi with provision of 140 lakh connections, which works out to be 145 connections per thousand population. The introduction of mobile telephony has completely transformed the telecommunication system in the city. Therefore, the future space requirement for telephone network has been worked out accordingly. Table 13.8 : Sl.

13.6.2 GUIDELINES FOR LOCATING FIRE STATIONS & OTHER FIRE FIGHTING FACILITIES IN URBAN EXTENSION: i) ii) Fire stations should be located so that the fire tenders are able to reach any disaster site within 3-5 minutes. Fire Stations shall be located on corner plots as far as possible and on main roads with minimum two entries.

iii) In the new layouts, concept of under ground pipelines for fire hydrants on the periphery, exclusively for fire fighting services should be considered. iv) Fire stations are permitted in all land use zones except in Recreational use zone. v) Necessary provisions for laying underground / over ground fire fighting measures, water lines, hydrants etc. may be kept wherever provision of fire station is not possible.

vi) The concerned agencies shall take approval from Fire Department for fire fighting measures while laying the services for an area. 13.6.3 DISASTER MANAGEMENT CENTRE According to the Indian Seismic Zone map, Delhi is placed in Seismic Zone IV, which means high damage risk zone. In the past, several earthquakes of Richter magnitude 5.5 to 6.7 have occurred in the National Capital Territory of Delhi. Two major lineaments, namely Delhi-Haridwar ridge and Delhi-Muradabad faults pass through the territory, both having potential of generating earthquakes of the magnitude upto 6.5 to 6.7 in future. Such natural and man made disasters neither can be prevented nor predicted. However,

146

with the technological advancement to some extent mechanism can be developed to mitigate the after effects of the disaster. Areas of vulnerability can be identified and necessary measures can be proposed by the concerned agencies. The concerned local bodies should keep updating the building bye-laws to safeguard against disasters and ensure effective and impartial enforcement. Following policies and strategies for disaster management are proposed: 1. Pre-Disaster Preparedness i) a) Micro-zonation surveys should be referred for land use planning and be considered while preparing the Zonal Plans and Layout Plans. Seismic micro-zonation for selected areas having high growth rates should be taken up on priority. On the basis of vulnerability studies and hazard identification, which includes soil conditions, probable intensity of earthquake, physiographic conditions of the area, fault traces, etc., local level land use zoning and planning should be undertaken. b) Building bye-laws should incorporate the aspects of Multi Hazard Safety, and Retrofitting. Priority should be given to public buildings (such as hospitals, educational, institutional, power stations, infrastructure, heritage monuments, lifeline structures and those which are likely to attract large congregation) for their ability to withstand earthquake of the defined intensity. Suitable action should be taken for retrofitting and strengthening of structures identified as vulnerable as per earthquake manuals and National Building Code. A techno-legal regime has to be adopted for provisions on Multi Hazard Safety aspects. ii) Delhi Fire Services being the nodal agency for disaster management should identify vulnerable areas such as areas with high density and poor accessibility in the city and propose suitable measures. Proposed Disaster Management Centres should be established in every zone to deal with the disasters, including biochemical and nuclear disasters. Sensitize people, particularly school children, about after effects of disaster. Make people aware through media campaigns and advertisements about emergency procedures and location of emergency shelters etc.

iii) iv)

2. Post Disaster Management i) It has been observed that any disaster is generally followed by break down of communication lines and disruption of essential services. Therefore, the key communication centres should be protected from natural disasters i.e. flood, fire and earthquake etc. and services restoration should be taken up on top most priority. Necessary setup should be created in each of the concerned department for such eventualities.

147

ii)

Standard type designs and layout should be prepared by the local bodies and made available to the people so that crucial time is not lost in approval of layout plans and building plans after disaster. Disaster Management Centres have been proposed to serve people in the case of disaster and provide emergency shelters.

14.0 PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

A key issue related to the sustainable development of Delhi, and a minimum quality and standard of living pertains to the availability of, and accessibility to basic infrastructure facilities viz. water, power, sewerage, drainage and solid waste management. The rapid and almost uncontrolled growth of population has put these facilities under severe pressure, and there are significant deficiencies. Even a cursory analysis of the present state of affairs, infrastructure problems could become a cause of crisis. Sewerage and solid waste management are GNCTD affairs but water supply, power and drainage are Inter-State issues. Thus critical need of advance action and arrangement is required for the adequate provision of physical infrastructure. For each component a broad augmentation plan is essential to meet the projected requirement. GNCTD should prepare a detailed and integrated plan in coordination with concerned authorities, NGOs and community groups. The Master Plan envisages an integrated approach that packages mutually supportive infrastructure components i.e. water-sewerage-drainage for recycling, harvesting and optimal use of water; solid waste-sewerage-power for power generation, etc. Innovative techniques for the use of alternative technologies like solar energy, recycling, etc., are also to be encouraged. The Plan accepts the need for institutional capacity building, "User Pays" approach and public private partnership as tools for institutional strengthening. To improve the efficiency and to boost the performance, more community participation and decentralised management is required. Technical feasibility of rehabilitation/ augmentation network of sewerage, water supply and drainage is required on priority for old built up areas and the areas identified for redevelopment. 14.1 PROJECTED REQUIREMENTS FOR THE YEAR 2021 The existing availability and projected requirement for physical infrastructure components as indicated by the agencies concerned are given in the Annexure I to IV. 14.2 WATER Delhi depends largely on river Yamuna and partially on river Ganga for its share of raw water. For sustainable development of Delhi, it is essential to ensure adequate supply of water in terms of reliability, quality and quantity. Although, Delhi has an average water availability of 225 lpcd, the distribution of the same is not uniform. Some areas get 24 hrs water supply, whereas some get hardly 1-2 hr water in a day. In line with the norms laid down in CPHEEO Manual 1999, in respect of mega cities, after taking into account 15% losses, the minimum water supply @ 172 lpcd will have to be ensured for domestic use for the projected population. The water requirement has to be made from river water allocation and ranney wells in Yamuna flood plains. The future supply crucially depends on the progress of the proposed dams in U.P, Uttranchal and H.P; Satluj Yamuna link canal and Sharda Yamuna link canal. Further it will also depend upon the conveyance system, which should be in place before the release of allocated water to Delhi. However to some extent localised ground water extraction and its supply after treatment to prescribed level of quality may also be required to meet up the demands. In addition,

164

promotion of recycled wastewater based on techno economic feasibility is also to be done by the concerned agencies for water augmentation. To improve the water supply in accordance with the projected requirement upto the year 2021 Inter-State river water allocation is required to be worked out. All measures are to be taken to reduce unaccounted flow of water (UFW) and production losses at existing water treatment plants. The drainage basins shall be made self-sustainable in water management by integrating water-sewerage-drainage systems. It is imperative to not only initiate new projects and upgrade present infrastructure, but also to promote water conservation through an integrated and a community driven model, comprising of complimentary short term and long term measures as given below: 1. Towns / cities have so far been planned by their respective authorities for their individual needs. There has been total lack of regional approach for sustainable use of available water and its conveyance from areas of plenty to scarcity. The raw water augmentation should not be territory specific but it should be on regional basis irrespective of State boundaries. Recycling of treated wastewater with separate lines for potable water and recycled water. For this, dual pipeline system has to be introduced in a phased manner in all the areas. Ground water recharging through rain water harvesting, conserving water bodies and controlling groundwater extraction: i) Groundwater extraction is to be controlled through registering boreholes and recharging according to test yields. Ground water management is to be enforced by concerned agency. Focused planning and action will be required to be taken to prepare and implement rain water as roof water harvesting schemes both with the aim of optimizing water use and ground water recharge. For this suitable mandatory provision should be made for planning and construction of various schemes. Blue print is required to be prepared for Integrated Water Management of all the water resources in the NCR as well as potential for water reservoirs in Himachal Pradesh and Uttaranchal. Further it is vital to identify all the potential surface water sources, ground water aquifers and inter-basin opportunities for transfer of water to the region. This should include water mapping, desilting of existing lakes / depressions for augmentation of storage of rain / flood water, capturing the monsoon run off, rain water harvesting, reuse and recycling of waste water and measures for conservation of water, inter-basin transfer of water. It should also ensure the conservation of natural depressions, water bodies, flood plains and aquifers. Major water bodies can be developed as places of tourist interest / picnic spots to make them sources of revenue as well as to ensure their protection. The concepts of 'zero run-off drainage', with retention ponds, sediments traps and balancing lakes should be adopted, with a segregated wastewater disposal system. A green network overlapping the blue

165

network would protect the ecology of aquifers, and also provide a pleasant environment. Simple methods of site planning, which incorporate porous/semi permeable paving, drop inlet / down pipe, sediment trap, retention ponds, etc. will contribute in maintaining ground water table. iv) Yamuna River, major drains and canals, with indiscriminate dumping of wastes, have become polluted and foul. These need strict pollution control measures and eco-sensitive land use controls. Water flow needs to be controlled and stabilized and marked at each kilometer station. The valleys should be zoned as water portals, so that these are flanked with greenery, farmlands and forests. One of the prime objectives of development should be to live in harmony with the environment. Efforts should be made to improve the quality of riverwater, to secure its continuous flow and to encourage the return of aquatic life. This needs improvement of drainage, waste water treatment and pollution abatement by sewerage improvement. The surplus water during the monsoons should be retained in balancing ponds along the riverbed rather than allowing it to the downstream areas. The drains and waterfront can be landscaped in the form of interconnected parkways. There is no need for elaborate gardening of the greenways, but wild, simple and natural stretch by itself would be ecologically important. Such trails could be one of the cheapest forms of drainage and recreation.

v)

vi)

vii) Water supply in new areas should incorporate separate lines - one for washing, water coolers and garden taps, the second for supplying potable water. All non-residential buildings having a discharge of over 10,000 litres a day should incorporate a wastewater recycling. The capacity of the sewage treatment plants / recycling plants would be equal to or more than the water inflow requirements so that it may be possible to treat major part of the discharge excepting toilets and kitchen discharge. Keeping in view the uses of recycled water, a policy shall be formulated for determining the optimum water requirements for various uses. viii) The wasteful practice of 'drill, pump, and spill' has to be replaced by efficient methods of water conservation, use, and recycling as standard and mandatory procedures. There is a need to incorporate the mandatory stipulation of water saving / waterless flushing system in the Building Bye-laws. ix) At the time of preparation of zonal Development Plans, water bodies, large depressions and other ground water recharging areas will be identified and protected from unintentional filling and encroachments. At the time of preparation of Zonal Development Plans, appropriate areas should be identified and earmarked for utilities pertaining to Power (Power Plants and Substations), Water (Sewage Treatment Plants and Sewage Pumping Stations) and Solid Waste management (Solid Waste Treatment Plants and Sanitary landfill sites). Appropriate land should accordingly be earmarked for solid waste management keeping in view a long-term perspective.

166

Where the hazard of pollution exists, the minimum charge for operating permits should cover the expenses of adequate policing and controls. Mandatory performance bonds and liability insurance should pay for all damages plus any corrective measures, which might be needed. As a governing rule, no new development, manufacturing, process or operation of any polluting activity should be permitted, which may result in the significant degradation of any water resource. About half of the water that is treated and distributed at public expense is nonrevenue water. This is due to unrecorded usage or illegal taps and water connections. Reducing water losses is cheaper than augmenting water capacity for such losses.

5.

To provide additional supply of water, augmentation of existing water treatment plants is proposed as given in Table 14.1. The actual provision of water treatment plants should be monitored depending on availability of raw water and need of potable water. Corresponding requirement of land shall be kept in view.

14.3 SEWERAGE Sewerage is the core element of physical infrastructure that determines the environmental status of any city and requires minute planning, development and management. Development of appropriate sewerage system with efficient sewage treatment is vital to facilitate balanced and harmonized development. Augmentation of existing inadequate systems / treatment facilities as well as adoption of new technologies of waste treatment demands special efforts. Further, it is pertinent to point-out that the existing capacity of sewerage system in Delhi is grossly inadequate, as only about 55% of the population is covered under organised sewerage system and about 15% under on-site sanitation systems. Rest of the population does not have proper access to sanitation facilities. The sewage treatment facility is also inadequate. The increasing pollution in the river Yamuna is a major indicator of lack of sewage treatment facilities. By the year 2021 entire Delhi should be served by regular sewerage system. It should be developed in a phased manner. The areas where immediate regular sewerage system is not available, low cost sanitation system by individual families could be adopted as a short-range provision. These should be planned in such a way that in the long term regular sewerage could be provided. To improve the sewerage and sanitation, the surface drainage and sewerage systems would have to be developed in an integrated manner. Planning of the city must incorporate land at appropriate locations for sewage treatment plants (STPs), sewage pumping stations, recycling plants for waste water, sewage treatment plants, common effluent treatment plants (CETPs) with supportive distributive infrastructure i.e. conveyance system to be laid to carry treated wastewater from STPs to the areas for alternative uses. Decentralised STPs with smaller capacities are to be provided at the community / subcity level. Possibility of recovering energy/ gas as fuel from sewage shall be explored. The liquid waste would be taken care of by augmenting the capacity of existing treatment plants as well as through new sewerage treatment plants. The sewerage system is designed to handle domestic liquid waste @ 80 % of the water supply, which has to cater to 1100 mgd (4950 mld) of waste water by the year 2021. The wastewater is also generated due to the use of ground water drawn from the boreholes installed by the public. The needed capacity has to be monitored with provision of water recycling infrastructure and mini / decentralised treatments. The treated sewage effluent should be recycled for non-potable uses like gardening, cooling towers, etc. The sewerage augmentation plan is given in Table 14.2.

In addition, new sewerage treatment plants may be identified as per requirement. 14.4 DRAINAGE Drainage has two aspects: flood protection and storm water discharge, which are interrelated. The storm water and flood protection in Delhi are not local but have regional bearing including areas of Haryana and Rajasthan. The main drainage system of Delhi is such that all water collected through main drains, link drains and small rivulets is discharged into Yamuna. On the basis of topographical characteristics and existing drainage network, NCT of Delhi has been divided into five drainage basins namely Najafgarh, Alipur, Shahdara, Khushak nallah and Mehrauli. The blockage of natural channel is a matter of concern. It is mainly because of the encroachment by slum dwellers along the drains which causes choking of drains and flooding in the upstream areas due to reduced carrying capacity. The other major reason is dumping of solid waste in the drains causing blockage. The blockage of natural depressions and drainage channels must be prohibited. To improve the drainage system of Delhi, effluent treatment plants should be provided at outfall of drains and aeration units at interceptions with advanced techniques for

169

maintenance of drains. A time bound action program for augmentation and capacity revision of existing and new drains (due to increase in run off from urban extensions) is also vital. Check dams and depression / lakes may be designed for increasing ground water table and as storm water holding points wherever needed. The design shall preserve the natural drainage pattern after the development of an area. Drainage should be linked with the ecology and green networks, by adopting the concept of "bio-drainage". Regular desilting of drains and control of dumping of solid waste / malba into the drains should be taken up. Public awareness program need to be taken up in association with NGOs and RWAs to make the people aware about the consequences of dumping malba in the drains. Other measures essential for proper drainage are the following: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Drainage to be integral part of Road Development Plans / flyover / Grade Separators. A proper database should be prepared and GIS based drainage mapping and planning should be promoted. Sub-wells need to be developed under flyovers for trapping rainwater. Pump houses in low-lying areas should be provided with back-up power. Remodelling of selected drains may also be required considering the upstream flow in the region.

14.5 POWER The present total availability of power is 3170 MW. The existing power generation stations within Delhi and their capacity are given: Table 14.3: Existing Power generation Stations in Delhi Station Rajghat Power Station IP Power Station GT Power Station Pragati Power Station Badarpur Thermal Power Station Total

Based on the 17th Electricity Power Survey of India, Central Electricity Authority (CEA), requirement of power for Delhi in the year 2021, as tentatively estimated by the Delhi Transco Ltd. is 11000 MW. To meet the additional requirement of 7830 MW, the

170

concerned agencies need to augment the power supply and improve the transmission and distribution system. The additional power requirement would be met from allocated share from the grid system and local generation for which required land component will be identified. Further, land for transmission network and grid stations will be identified in the Zonal Development Plans / Urban Extension Plans as per requirement. A 400 KV ring has been established around Delhi to draw power from northern regional grid. A detailed Sectoral Plan for power development in NCT-Delhi may be prepared by the concerned agencies in consultation with DDA within one year after the approval of the MPD-2021. Table 14.4: Proposed Power Plants In NCTD 1. 2. 3. Pragati-II Pragati-III I.P.

Following critical areas need to be attended for energy efficiency: i) The concept of energy efficiency should begin with the idea of Zero-fossil Energy Development (ZED) which envisages an urban form and design of passive building envelope that reduce the demand for power to the point where it becomes economically viable to use energy from renewable resources. This involves a holistic approach combining the issues and actions at various levels of planning, design, construction and maintenance leading to a sustainable and energy efficient regime. The city geometry, restructuring and zoning with self-contained neighbourhoods could minimise the need to travel and substantial saving of

171

recurring energy / fuel consumption. Integrated mass transport system, traffic and transit operation and management, better tele-communications, promoting bicycles and NMV transport, is another major area of energy efficient habitat. The introduction of energy audit and design of energy efficient buildings by site planning, heights, form, construction and materials and reducing energy demand by passive micro-climatic design approach, intelligent energy controls, heat recovery, landscape, opening design, furnishings, etc., are the critical considerations. The key to future is a cybernetic form of sustainable energy, which integrates symbosis, recycling and energy chains. ii) Load management techniques and energy accounting should be adopted. Schemes to minimise power thefts / losses by improved metering arrangements should be enforced. Non-conventional energy sources like recovering energy from sewerage, solar energy, etc. should be used for street lighting, lighting at public spaces, open areas, traffic signals, hoardings, etc. To supplement part of the estimated growing power requirement, non-conventional sources / solar energy and other actions proposed are as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. v) a) b) Solar energy should be encouraged for all establishments with floor area of more than 300 sqm. Solar Panels for public advertising, lighting in open areas, public utilities, streets, etc. As alternate mandatory arrangement during power cuts to replace generators / inverters etc. Adoption of Load Management Technique. Tariff restructuring and improved metering arrangement to minimize power thefts / losses. Interim solutions of single point connection in unauthorized colonies and jhuggies. Private Sector Participation in different stages of Power generation, transmission and distribution. Incentivising energy savings and use of energy efficient gadgets. Public awareness, capacity building and training.

iii)

iv)

As per Asian Development Bank's report (1997) potential in saving due to better overall efficiency in domestic sector is about 20% by adopting following measures: Replacement of low efficiency incandescent lamp with high efficiency fluorescent tubes (CFLs) without compromising with the lumens output. Similarly for refrigerators, which account for 30% of total electricity consumed, measures like increased thickness of foam insulation, use of high coefficient compressors increased evaporator surfaces, use of tighter door seals and through technical improvements can reduce consumption from 540 KWH/year to 300 KWH/year (for a 165 litre refrigerator).

172

c)

Incandescent bulbs, neon tubes and fluorescent lamps are giving way to lightemitting microchips that work longer, use less power and allow the use of light in new ways. The chips, known as light emitting diodes, or LEDs have huge performance advantages in many mundane tasks (such as traffic lights). These consume 80 per cent less electricity than the bulbs and have longer life. Moreover, they have the safety advantage of gradually fading instead of burning out. This eventually results in huge savings in terms of energy and maintenance costs.

14.6 SOLID WASTE The problem of solid waste management in Delhi is assuming serious proportions due to increasing population, urbanisation, changing lifestyles and consumption patterns. The garbage from unauthorised developments, slums, JJ settlements, etc is not collected which further adds to the environmental degradation. The projected average garbage generation upto the year 2021 is @ 0.68 kg per capita per day and total quantum of solid waste is 15750 tons/day as given in Table 14.5. Table 14.5: Quantum of Municipal Solid Waste (Tons/Day) Local body area MCD NDMC Cantonment Total Existing capacity 2001 5250 245 48 5543 Projected generation for 2021 15100 550 100 15750

Management of solid waste involves waste generation, segregation and storage; waste collection; waste transfer / transportation; treatment, recycle, reuse, recovery; and disposal. For effective waste management, its segregation at the community and neighbourhood level is imperative. The waste shall be segregated and collected, in separate chambers at dalaos. For this, involvement of rag pickers with RWAs, CBOs and NGOs is to be encouraged. The projected composition of municipal waste for the Plan period is estimated as given in Table 14.6. For biodegradable and recyclable waste, which is segregated at the source, decentralised treatment at neighbourhood level may be adopted, while for nonbiodegradable, centralised treatment may be followed. Table 14.6: Projected Composition of Total Municipal Solid Waste for 2021 Constituents Bio-degradable Non Bio-degradable Recyclable Total Quantum (in tones) 6000 6000 3750 15750 Percentage to total waste 38 38 24 100

Notes: (i) (ii) Above figures are based on Report on Solid Waste Management in Delhi conducted by NEERI, Nagpur through DDA; Figures of MCD are based on 'Feasibility study in Master Plan for Optimal Waste Treatment & Disposal for the entire State of Delhi' June, 2004 by COWI Consultants appointed by MCD.

The other type of specialised waste includes biomedical waste; hazardous waste from industries; construction debris and fly ash; meat processing centre etc. Disposal of biomedical waste is to be as per bio-medical waste rules and hazardous waste requires special handling according to hazardous waste handling rules. Proper dumping, recycling and reuse of construction debris and fly ash have to be linked. Meat processing centre waste is to be recycled for chicken feed etc. Considering the nature of solid waste and the economic aspects of its disposal, major part of solid waste especially non bio-degradable has to be disposed off in sanitary landfills. Recycling should be preferred than disposing off the waste in sanitary landfill sites' wherever possible. The segregation of solid waste should start at the point of generation of the waste. It should be collected in two separate bags of green and black colour. The involvement of RWAs and Rag pickers association will reduce the quantum of waste drastically. And it will also result in the reduction of area required for landfill sites. Further, some more viable alternatives to landfills are vermiculture, fossilisation, composting etc. Waste Minimisation Circles (WMCs) should be constituted and made effective. Implementation and monitoring & Bio-Medical Wastes (Handling & Management) Rules, 1998, for hospitals, nursing homes, and clinics should be taken up. The sites, which are filled up or are in operation, are given in Table 14.7. The filled up sites may be reused for plantation or as recreational area. The proposed sites for sanitary landfill and compost plants are to be finalised by the MCD. Table 14.7: Existing Landfill sites for Waste Management S.No. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Appropriate land should be earmarked for solid waste management keeping in view a long-term perspective. The area required for solid waste disposal through various technologies including sanitary landfill sites shall be reserved in the Zonal Plans. This shall also include buffer zone of 'no development' around landfill sites. Keeping in view the fact that finding new sanitary landfill sites in Delhi is becoming extremely difficult, there is no option, but to resort to alternative and decentralised methods of waste treatment, reduction, recycle and use, which include vermiculture, fossilisation and composting. Pilot projects in this regard have been taken up by the MCD with the consultants.

15.0 MIXED USE REGULATIONS

The policy acknowledges the need for permitting use of land for purposes other than that for which it was originally envisaged and lays down the conditions under which this may be applied in different situations. The general procedure to be followed for implementation of the said policy, and mitigating measures to be taken to counter the effect of such non-intended use in such area also described. 15.1 GOVERNING PRINCIPLES FOR MIXED USE i. ii. iii. Mixed use means the provision for non-residential activity in residential premises. The policy aims to balance the socio-economic need for such activity and the environmental impact of the said activity in residential areas. Mixed use allows access to commercial activities in the proximity of the residences and reduces the need for commuting across zones in the city. However, at the same time, it needs to be regulated in order to manage and mitigate the associated adverse impact related to congestion, increased traffic and increased pressure on civic amenities. The over-riding principles for permitting mixed use are the need to acknowledge and make adequate provision for meeting community needs, mitigating environmental impact and providing for safe and convenient circulation and parking. Mixed-use, (including small shops as per para 15.6.3.) shall not be permitted in the Lutyens' Bungalow Zone, Civil Lines bungalow zone. government housing, institutional / staff housing of public and private agencies and buildings / precincts listed by the Heritage Conservation Committee.

iv.

v.

15.2 MIXED USE IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS 15.2.1. DIFFERENTIATED APPROACH i) The need for differentiated approach to mixed use policy arises from the fact that Delhi, being the country's capital and an important centre of economic activity has a large diversity in the typology of residential areas. Apart from the planned residential colonies built as part of Lutyens' Delhi as well as through the process of planned development undertaken by the Delhi Development Authority, there are authorized residential areas in the Walled City, Special areas and urban villages. Other planned areas include resettlement colonies and pre-Delhi Development Act colonies, including post-partition rehabilitation colonies and pre-1962 residential colonies as per list given in Annexure I. There are also regularized-unauthorized colonies; unauthorized colonies as well as slums and jhuggi jhompri clusters in various parts of Delhi. Moreover, the extent of non-residential activity seen as being necessary or desirable by the residents themselves varies from area to area based on the socioeconomic status of the residents as well as the past pattern of development in

ii)

176

that area. While certain colonies may need non-residential activity as an integral part of their livelihood, some others may wish to preserve the residential character of their colonies and neighbourhood. iii) Hence, it is proposed to follow a differentiated approach in the application of the mixed-use policy in Delhi.

18.0 PLAN REVIEW AND MONITORING

Plan Monitoring is essential to evaluate the changes required to improve the quality of life in the city. Properly phased monitoring makes the plan responsive to the emerging socio-economic forces. Implementation of the plan can be effective only when monitored and reviewed at appropriate periods. No long-range plan can be implemented as it is. The process of implementation has to be divided into various time frames depending on the projects & schemes. To study the effect of implementation of these projects, monitoring is required from time to time for each of the various aspects of the master plan. A scientific monitoring framework is essential for: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Effective implementation of plan within the plan period, thereby achieving the intended targets. Respond to the changing socio-economic needs of the people of the city. To check unintended growth within the city. Time lags between various implementation schemes and emerging needs of the people. Review the appropriateness of the plan policies.

Monitoring framework for targets of the master plan helps in judging the performance of various sectors, which need priority. Critical aspects and their targets need shorter monitoring period so that they can be constantly reviewed from time to time. The Plan period is proposed to be divided in three phases taking 2006 as the base year. However, the targets, which are not achieved within the defined period, shall be carried forward in the next phase. The following table lists the different sectors, their targets to be achieved and the period of monitoring. This table is however, not a programme of development but it provides a scale to assess the achievements in different sectors for the city development. However, infrastructure facilities at neighbourhood level should be monitored in consonance with neighbourhood development / redevelopment scheme.

18.2 MAJOR ISSUES 1. 2. The Planning process needs reforms and capacity building to meet projected targets adequately, such as preparation of Sub-Regional Plan, Zonal Plans etc. Local level participation in the planning process, its coordination, planning and building approvals, slum rehabilitation, social housing and legal reforms also requires attention for implementation of provisions of the Master Plans. Monitoring & Review of Master Plan should be done through indicators of physical and socio-economic changes.

3.

Taking into account the above, it is proposed to formulate a separate Monitoring Unit and a team of action groups which will function within the specified prescribed norms and social indicators within the over all framework of the Master Plan.

208

18.3 MONITORING UNIT A dedicated Monitoring Unit with modern data processing facilities should be set up which would be responsible for collection and analysis of primary and secondary data and bringing the important changes to the notice of the authority comprehensively. This unit should also be in-charge of overall monitoring of implementation of the approved development plans and layout plans. A suitable mechanism by way of high-level committee under Lt. Governor, Delhi is also proposed to be set up for periodic review and monitoring of the plan. To enable this, apart from targets arising from various infrastructure plans etc., other action points emerging from the proposals made in the plan for various sectors would also be listed out, to enable monitoring of timely implementation / identifying the need for any changes / corrections. 18.4 MANAGEMENT ACTION GROUPS It is proposed that for participatory planning, the following management action groups and initiatives are taken for addressing the major issues. These groups would work on following Planning indicators. 18.4.1 PLANNING INDICATORS The following would be the indicators of physical and socio-economic changes to be monitored periodically. 1) Demographic: Population size, Population distribution in relation to holding capacity, Age sex structure, Household size, Rate of migration, Causes of migration etc. 2) Landuse: Landuse pattern, Development / Layout plans etc. 3) Housing: Slum and squatter settlements, Household with essential services 4) Social Infrastructure: Mortality Rate and Infant Mortality Rate, access of population to safe drinking water, access to low cost sanitation, removal of solid waste per capita, distribution of police and fire services, requirement of old age homes, working women's hostels, adult education centres etc. Transport: Percentage trips by public transport (modal split), cost of using and operating different modes, passenger capacity and distance traveled by public transport per year in relation to population, facilities provided on railways / metro stations / I.S.B.T, Requirement of petrol pumps & CNG stations. Economic Aspects: Distribution of households by income, consumption expenditure, employment, participation rate, employment in different sectors, shifting / relocation of industries, growth of informal sector, shifting of government offices etc. Environment: Air pollution, Water pollution, Noise, Quality of water of River Yamuna, Ridge area conservation etc Natural Disasters: Floods intensity areas & effected population, any other natural disasters etc.

Perspective Plan For Infrastructural Services For Delhi -2021 Water Supply The total area of the National Capital Territory of Delhi (N.C.T.D) is 1,48,639 Ha. As per 2001 census, the population of Delhi is 137.8 lacs. Taking into account, the past trends, the population of Delhi is estimated to be around 190 lacs by 2011 & 230 lacs by 2021. PRESENT WATER AVAILABILITY The Delhi Jal Board has an installed capacity of 805 MGD against which on an average 800 to 820 MGD potable water is expected to be produced by optimization of Water Treatment Plants. PRESENT WATER DEMAND The present water demand for potable water in Delhi has been assessed as 990 MGD @ 60 gpcd for all uses. No allowance is made for use of potable water for parks & lawns/ horticulture/agriculture purposes due to water shortage. PROJECTED WATER DEMAND 2011 The Delhi Jal Board anticipates that by the year 2011 about 1140 MGD potable water @ 60 gpcd for a population of 190 lacs shall be required. However, the DDA has projected the 2011 water demand as 1520 MGD @ 80 gpcd. PROJECTED WATER DEMAND IN 2021 The Delhi Jal Board anticipates that by the year 2021 about 1380 MGD potable water @ 60 gpcd for a population of 230 lacs shall be required. However, the DDA has projected the 2021 water demand as 1840 MGD @ 80 gpcd. BASIS FOR ADOPTING PER CAPITA WATER REQUIREMENT a) Delhi Jal Board The Delhi Jal Board is adopting the domestic consumption as per C.P.H.E.E.O Manual 1999 on water supply which provides for domestic consumption in Metropolitan & mega cities as 150 LPCD plus 15% losses. As per the Manual, the water requirement for other uses is to be assessed separately. To assess the water demand for other uses, the Delhi Jal Board has followed the Master Plan Document - 2001. Consequently, the per capita water requirement works out as follows: I. II. III. IV. Domestic (150 + 22) Industrial, commercial and community requirement at 45,000 lts. Per Ha. Per day Special uses, embassies, floating population, hotels, airports and railway stations etc. Fire protection @ 1% of total demand Total (Say 60 gallons per capita per day (GPCD).

172 LPCD 47 LPCD. 52 LPCD. 3 LPCD 274 LPCD

219

b)

Delhi Development Authority The total city requirement is considered as 80 gpcd out of which 50 gpcd is for domestic requirement and 30 gpcd for non-domestic purposes. The domestic water requirement of 50 gpcd comprises of 30 gpcd for potable needs and 20 gpcd for non-potable water. The requirement of potable water out of total requirement of 80 gpcd has been assessed as 35 gpcd (30 gpcd for domestic and 5 gpcd for non-domestic demand) while the demand for non-potable water has been assessed as 45 gpcd i.e 20 gpcd for domestic and 25 gpcd for non-domestic purposes. However, the stand of DJB is that it is more realistic to calculate demand projection @ 60 gpcd., as 80 gpcd is unrealistic to achieve.

PRESENT SOURCES OF RAW WATER The present sources of raw water available to Delhi are as under:Yamuna Water 750 cusec (Includes 130 cusec transit losses from Tajewala to Haiderpur) Ganga water BBMB Water BBMB Water 470 cusec at Bhagirathi and Sonia Vihar Water Works. 225 cusec (Ex. Nangal 371 cusec) 40 cusec (Ex. Nanagla 60 cusec )

Ground Water 185 cusec. Based on the availability of above raw water, following water treatment plants are functioning:Sl. No. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Source of Raw Water River Yamuna River Yamuna Bhakra Storage Yamuna Bhakra Storage Upper Ganga Canal Upper Ganga Canal Sub-Surface Water Name of the Plant Chandrawal I & II Wazirabad I, II & III Haiderpur I Haidepur II Nangloi Bhagirathi Sonia Vihar Ranney Wells/Tube wells Total Installed Capacity 90 MGD 120 MGD 100 MGD 100 MGD 40 MGD 100 MGD 140 MGD 115 MGD 805 MGD

Although, installed capacity of Nangloi Water Treatment Plant is 40 MGD, but presently it is treating only 20 MGD, due to raw water constraints. Balance 20 MGD water is likely to be available for this plant after the commissioning of Parallel lined channel by Haryana Government.

220

SHARE IN YAMUNA WATER A MoU for sharing of Yamuna water between five riparian states, Haryana, U.P., Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan & N.C.T. of Delhi has been signed on 12.05.1994 and Delhi share in Yamuna water has been fixed as 0.724 BCM (consumptive). The above allocation is subject to construction of Renuka Dam, Kishau Dam, Lakhwar Vyasi Project. Pending construction of these dams, following seasonal allocations have been made: S. No. States 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Haryana Uttar Pradesh Rajashthan Himachal Delhi July to Oct. 4.107 3.216 0.963 0.190 0.580 (1926 cusec) Nov. to Feb. 0.686 0.343 0.070 0.108 0.068 (231 cusec) Mar. to June 0.937 0.473 0.086 0.080 0.076 (255 cusec) Total 5.730 4.032 1.119 0.378 0.724 (808 cusec)

Presently, Delhi is getting about 750 cusecs of raw water during the lean season against a consumptive allocation of 255 cusecs. After fulfilling the consumptive need, 495 cusecs flows back in the river as return flow. With the construction of the dams in the upper reaches of river Yamuna, Delhi's consumptive allocation will be 808 cusecs and total allocation will be 2400 cusecs. POLICY DECISIONS NEED TO BE TAKEN IMMEDIATELY FOR EFFICIENT WATER MANAGEMENT Requirement of potable water for significant years are discussed later in this plan. However, seeing to the gap in the present demand and supply and for the overall efficient management of water resources, the following policy decisions needs to be taken/implemented on priority:i) Regulation and control of under ground water:-

Presently, there is no control over the extraction of underground water except banning of new bore wells in selected pockets by C.G.W.A. This has led to depletion of water table at an accelerating pace and in future large area well be affected. Depletion of water table would lead to enhancement of demand from the D.J.B. The continued abstraction of groundwater in urban areas has led to severe depletion of groundwater levels. Unrestricted and unregulated abstraction of groundwater has serious long term environmental implications. Over extraction of ground water can result in drying up of resources and may also affect water quality. The National Water Policy 2002, issued by the Ministry of Water Resources, GOI emphasizes that 'Exploitation of groundwater should be so regulated as not to exceed recharging

221

possibilities, as also to ensure social equity. The detrimental environmental consequences of overexploitation of groundwater need to be effectively prevented by the Central and state governments. The Central government has set up a Central Ground Water Authority, under the MOWR under the Environment (Protection) Act 1986. Its powers, among other things include the power to regulate and control management and development of ground water in the country and to issue necessary regulatory directions for the purpose. CGWA had in the year 2000 notified the South and South West districts of Delhi as critical areas where regulation had become necessary due to over exploitation of groundwater. Subsequently, through a notification in March 2006, it has notified East district, New Delhi district, North East district, North West District and West district as over exploited areas needing regulation. Now 7 out of 9 districts have been deemed to be overexploited zones in the state of Delhi. This makes the need for regulation of exploitation of ground water critically imperative. The MOWR, GOI had prepared a model groundwater bill way back in 1996 and circulated it for enactment to various state governments. So far the states of Andhra Pradesh, Goa, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Union territories of Lakshadweep and Pondicherry have enacted and implemented ground water legislation. Subsequently, keeping in view of the provisions of National Water Policy, 2002, MOWR, GOI circulated revised Model Bill 2005 to regulate and control the development and management of Ground Water in February, 2005. Delhi Jal Board has also formulated a draft bill namely the Delhi Water Board Act (Amendment) Bill-2006 to regulate and control the development and management of ground water in NCT, Delhi. A preamble of the amendment bill is annexed as Annexure - A to the plan. ii) Cost of enhancement:Marginal cost of further enhancements of water is going to be substantial, as it will involve construction of huge reservoirs in the form of dams, construction of conveyance system, construction of transmission, peripheral and distribution main and underground reservoirs in the city. At present, infrastructure development fund is being charged from the Developing Agencies for developed areas @ Rs. 15/- per litre of average daily demand, but the same is not enough to finance the cost of the huge reservoirs and dams. So, it is necessary to enhance the same to finance the construction of dams and transmission of bulk/raw water. The quantum of levy and detail modalities can be worked out subsequently. iii) Prevention of wastage and theft of water:Wastage and theft of water will have to be curbed mercilessly. Suitable amendments are necessary in Delhi Water Board Act to provide for stringent measures for enforcing curbs on theft/wastage of water. Simultaneously, it would be necessary to evolve more intelligent system of leak detection and control which would require investments for metering at all levels, segregation of district metering areas, setting up of pressure gauges etc.

PROPOSED STEPS TO BE TAKEN TO MEET THE SHORTFALL UPTO 2011 As seen from the above table, Delhi Jal Board will be able to increase its treatment capacity of 805 MGD at the end of 2006 to 940 MGD by the year 2011 against the projected demand of 1140 MGD by taking following steps:i) Water Treatment Plant at Dwarka, Bawana & Okhla The existing parallel lined channel from Munak to Haiderpur water treatment plant is having seepage losses to the tune of 30%. It is proposed to construct a parallel lined channel from Munak to Haiderpur water treatment plant. With the construction of this channel, there will be saving of about 160 cusecs of raw water and Delhi Jal Board has proposed construction of water treatment plants of 40 MGD at Dwarka, 20 MGD at Bawana and 20 MGD at Okhla. Even after the commissioning of above Projects, there is shortfall of about 200 MGD. To meet this shortfall, the following steps are proposed to be taken up:a) Govt. of NCT of Delhi may approach Ministry of Water Resources for increase in raw water allocation of Yamuna water by 370 cusecs during the lean period to meet the drinking water requirement of Delhi during the above period. Govt. of NCT of Delhi has made a request to Ministry of Water Resources for additional allocation for surplus Ravi-Vyas Water.

b)

223

c)

Govt. of NCT of Delhi has initiated rain water harvesting in Delhi which will help in sustaining the present availability of ground water. These efforts shall be continued thereafter also. In addition to sustaining sub-surface water availability of 115 MGD at the end of 2006 by rain water harvesting, the D.J.B. can extract additional 10 MGD as suggested by C.G.W.B. from the following locations:-

d)

ii) iii)

5 MGD can be extracted from flood plains of river Yamuna in NCT of Delhi along Okhla barrage-Kalindi Kunj reach through a battery of about 25 tubewells. 5 MGD can be extracted from flood plains of river Yamuna in NCT of Delhi along Akshar Dham Mandir-Nizamuddin bridge reach through a battery of about 25 tubewells. Common Wealth Village is likely to come up near Akshar Dham Mandir for the proposed Common Wealth Games to be held in 2010. The entire village can be fed though a battery of 25 tubewells and a small treatment plant of 5 MGD. The D.D.A. will have to reserve about 7.5 acres of land for the treatment plant in the vicinity of the area.

iv)

It is recommended that D.D.A. may explore possibility of dual pipe system in limited way for flushing purpose only, in all group housing societies and new colonies. The idea is to collect the waste water from bathrooms in a storage tank and pump it to separate overhead storage tank for this purpose at roof-top and then connect the same with cisterns in the toilets for flushing purpose only. The present population of Delhi is 165 lacs and it is projected to be 190 lacs by 2011 which means the population will increase by 25 lacs. Now, assuming that 60% of this population will come up in new planned colonies the population works out to be about 15 lacs. As per D.D.A., the domestic non-potable consumption is 20 gpcd. Out of this 20 gpcd it can be safely assumed that 10 gpcd will be for washing / cleaning purposes and 10 gpcd for toilet and flushing purposes. This means that saving on water by application of partial dual piping system will be 15 MGD.

v)

Although, there is no further scope of augmenting the present sub-surface water in NCT of Delhi, due to lack of both quantity and quality, the N.C.R. region in the neighboring states have promising prospects. The entire projected shortfall of 200 MGD by 2011 can be met by developing a system of tubewells in following regions in the NCR:a) Yamuna Flood Plains of NCR - This area falls in Panipat & Sonepat districts of Haryan and Baghpat district of Uttar Pradesh. The area extends from Karaina in the North to Palla in the South. The Area along Upper Ganga Canal in NCR - This area extends from Jani (located on Baghpat-Meerut road) in the North and Muradnagar in the South. The demarcated area is in a length & width of about 20 Kms. and 50 Kms. respectively on either side of Upper Ganga canal. The Ganga Flood Plains in NCR - The C.G.W.B. has earmarked the area along the Ganga River as one of the most potential for development of ground water

to be supplied to NCT of Delhi. The khaddar zone on the Western side of Ganga River extend up to 15 Kms. from Parichatgarh in the North to Syana in the South and falls in Parichat Development Block of Ghaziabad district of Uttar Pradesh. The area is bounded by Madhya Ganga Canal in the West and Ganga River in the East. vi) Water Reclamation The D.J.B. shall also explore the possibility of reclamation of sewage water on the lines of NE Water of Singapore using ultra-filtration, reverse osmosis and UV treatment processes by going through a pilot project of 6 MGD at Okhla S.T.P. If, it is found techno-economically feasible, then large scale reclamation of sewage water at Treatment Plants can be taken up in phases. The first plant for such large scale tertiary treatment of water will be at Rithala sewage treatment plant, which can add upto 40 MGD of treated water. This can be further taken to Hyderpur WTP for distribution. In view of above, it is obvious that the shortfall of 200 MGD by 2011 can only be met either by increased allocation of Delhi during lean period or by developing a system of tube wells in the NCR or by combination of two as an interim measure till the dams in Upper Reaches in Yamuna are completed. The intervention of Ministry of Water Resources is needed for both cases. The existing corridor for raw water transportation after the lining of Western Yamuna Canal and completion of parallel lined channel will be more or less sufficient to carry the additional requirement of 2011. The D.D.A. will have to allocate the land measuring about 300 acres @ 1.5 acres / mgd (That is 1.5 Acres for every additional population of 15000 persons) also the equal amount of land may also be kept reserved for construction of UGR's and Pumping station at strategic locations for the construction of additional 200 mgd treatment plants and its allied works. While allocating the land for additional treatment capacity, location of new developing colonies and sources of raw water shall have to be kept in view. WATER SUPPLY SCENARIO IN 2021 Sl.

PROPOSED STEPS TO BE TAKEN TO MEET THE SHORTFALL UPTO 2021 As seen from the above table, Delhi Jal Board will not be in a position to increase its treatment capacity of 941 MGD by the year 2011 from the existing resources and raw water sources. The projected demand in 2021 will be of 1380 MGD @ 60 gpcd for 230 lacs population, thus, there will be a shortfall of about 440 MGD. To meet this shortfall, the work on following dams has to be expedited. There seems to be no other alternative. On completion of above projects, Delhi will receive its full share of 0.724 BCM(808 Cusecs Consumptive). The total allocation works out to 2400 cusecs that means an additional 1600 cusecs (865 MGD) will be available to Delhi which is more than enough to meet the projected shortfall of 440 MGD by 2021. A) Renuka Dam Renuka is contemplated as a 148 meter high rock fill dam on of Yamuna, in Sirmour district of Himanchal Pradesh, mainly to to Delhi, estimated cost is Rs 1225 crores at May 1997 price been cleared by CEC and approval of MoE&F is likely to be B) Kishau Dam This dam is to be constructed on the River Tons in Uttranchal. Kishau Dam project has been examined in C.W.C. for broad technical and economic aspects and was found technically and economically feasible. It was recommended for consideration by the Advisory Committee at an estimated cost of Rs. 35,662 million (December 1998 price level). The Kishau Dam project was taken up in the 72nd meeting of the advisory Committee on Irrigation, Flood Control and Multipurpose Projects, on 18 January 2000. After discussion, it was decided that consideration of the project be deferred until a further elaboration of the economic viability has been prepared, including apportioning project costs among the irrigation, power and water supply components. As per latest information from Utranchal govt. it has been informed that a MOU has been signed with the Tehri Hydro Development Corporation (THDC) for construction of the dam. River Giri, a tributary augment water supply level. The project has obtained shortly.

C)

Lakhwar Vyasi Dam This project envisages construction of 204 m high concrete dam on river Yamuna near Lakhwar Village in Dehradoon district of Uttranchal, and another dam down stream at Vyasi, for providing drinking water, irrigation and power generation. This Project was approved by the planning commission way back in 1976. However, the State Government submitted revised estimate in 1979, 1994 and 1998. Uttranchal Government has entrusted the construction of the project and preparation of its revised DPR to NHPC. The preparation of DPR is in advanced stage by NHPC, but the sharing of cost for project for Irrigation and Drinking water is yet to be agreed by the beneficiary states. Thereafter, NHPC has to sign MOU with other basin states on cost sharing of Irrigation and Drinking water components. The D.D.A. may reserve the land measuring 600 acres by 2011 and additional 1320 acres by 2021 to construct the additional water treatment plants and its allied works. While allocating the land for additional treatment capacity, location of new developing colonies and sources of raw water shall have to be kept in view. ANNEXURE- 'A'

Proposed Draft Delhi Water Board (Amendment) Bill, 2006 BACKGROUND The continued abstraction of groundwater in urban areas has led to severe depletion of groundwater levels. Unrestricted and unregulated abstraction of groundwater has serious long term environmental implications. Over extraction of ground water can result in drying up of resources and may also affect water quality. The National Water Policy 2002, issued by the Ministry of Water Resources, GOI emphasizes that 'Exploitation of groundwater should be so regulated as not to exceed recharging possibilities, as also to ensure social equity. The detrimental environmental consequences of overexploitation of groundwater need to be effectively prevented by the Central and State Governments. The Central Government has set up a Central Ground Water Authority, under the MOWR under the Environment (Protection) Act 1986. Its powers, among other things include the power to regulate and control management and development of ground water in the country and to issue necessary regulatory directions for the purpose. CGWA had in the year 2000 notified the South and South West Districts of Delhi as critical areas where regulation had become necessary due to over exploitation of groundwater. Subsequently, through a notification in March 2006, it has notified East district, New Delhi district, North East district, North West district and West District as over exploited areas needing regulation. Now 7 out of 9 districts have been deemed to be overexploited zones in the state of Delhi. This makes the need for regulation of exploitation of ground water critically imperative. LEGISLATIVE ARRANGEMENTS The MOWR, GOI had prepared a model groundwater bill way back in 1996 and circulated it for enactment to various State Governments. We have been receiving continuous

227

references in this regard ever since. So far, the states of Andhra Pradesh, Goa, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Union Territories of Lakshadweep and Pondicherry have enacted and implemented ground water legislation. Presently, section 9(1) of the Delhi Water Board act 1998 defines as one of the functions of the Board to 'Plan for, regulate and manage the exploitation of groundwater in Delhi, in consultation with the Central Ground Water Authority and also to give advice in this regard to the New Delhi Municipal Council, the Delhi Cantonment Board or any other local authority: Provided that the Board shall not license or levy user charge for exploitation of groundwater in any area for the time being falling in the jurisdiction of the New Delhi Municipal Council, the Delhi Cantonment Board, or any other local authority, expect with the prior approval of Central Government.' Based on the principles enunciated in the model bill circulated by Central government, Delhi Jal Board vide its resolution number 204, dated 8th May 2002 approved the Delhi Water Board (Amendment) Bill 2002. The draft Bill was given an in principle approval by the Delhi Council of Ministers vide decision number 861 in 2004. While discussing the Bill, the Council of Ministers had suggested that the need for rainwater harvesting as a mandatory provision prior to grant of permission for new wells or registration of existing ones should be given primacy. The revised Bill was resubmitted and approved by the Council of Ministers meeting on 13th June 2005, with certain proposed amendments. Finally, the Delhi Water Board (Amendment) Bill 2005 was introduced in the Assembly on 22nd September 2005. Several legislators had suggested amendments to the Bill and had raised objections to certain provisions. The objections were raised by Mr. Mukesh Sharma, MLA and Mr. Vijay Jolly, MLA. Principally the objections raised by the two members pertained to the following: Mr. Mukesh Sharma: The definition of user of groundwater should exclude domestic and agricultural users For publication of notice, it was suggested that it should be published in 2 regional language papers and two English language dailies instead of one each. The extent of penalties was proposed to be reduced The section dealing with the powers of the Board to enter the premises and search and seize equipment should be deleted Mr. Vijay Jolly: The entry inside a premises for search and seizure should be with the prior permission of the property owner Power to break open premises for seizing illegal equipment may be dispensed with. These objections were examined by a committee of DJB headed by Member (W) and the committee felt that the basic intention of the proposed amendment would be affected by accepting the suggestions made by legislators.

228

Thereafter, the Bill was referred to a Select committee of the Assembly, which in its meeting in 2nd February 2006 decided that the Bill in its present shape was not accepted and should be withdrawn. However, the need and urgency if ground water regulation is clearly the need of the hour for a sustainable water resource management in Delhi. With fresh raw water resources becoming available in the near future being a remote possibility, the need for an integrated water resource management is essential. The Commissioning of Sonia Vihar treatment plant had increased the availability of filtered water supply to the extent of 30% in hitherto water deficit areas of Delhi. Therefore, now the timing is right to introduce an institutional arrangement of effectively regulating groundwater abstraction. Meanwhile, a letter was received in February 2005 from Secretary, Ministry of Water Resources, GOI, addressed to the Chief Secretary of Delhi, wherein it was indicated that the Model Bill of 1996 had been revised in light of the NWP 2002 shifting the focus of the Bill from mere regulation to regulation, development and augmentation of groundwater resources. Letters have also been written by the Honorable Prime Minister of India and the Union Minister of Water Resources to the Chief Minister of Delhi, highlighting the urgency of introducing legislation for regulation of groundwater usage. It is felt that perhaps it would be prudent to re introduce the amendment of the Delhi Water Board Act, incorporating the salient features of the Model Bill circulated by GOI. This would avoid the need to set up a separate Groundwater Regulation Authority because in a small state like Delhi there is perhaps no need to have a separate authority for this purpose. Given below are the key variants in this Bill from the Previous Delhi Water Board (Amendment) Bill 2005. Some definitions like 'groundwater', 'sink', 'user of groundwater' have been slightly modified keeping in line with the way it is defined in the Model Bill A new section 35 D has been added, in line with the Model Bill, which mandates that even users of new wells in non notified areas would have to get themselves registered with the DJB. This does not mean that they would have to seek permission in non notified areas, but would have to register themselves. This would help the DJB to track the extent of exploitation of groundwater even in non notified areas in the future, so that if even some non notified areas to be regulated in future, sufficient data should be available for the same. It would also help in integrated water resource management to enable a correct mix of filtered water supplies and groundwater supplies. A new section 35 E has been added, as per the Model Bill 2005, mandating that all drilling agencies would have to get themselves registered with the Board. This would enable a parallel check on the extent of underground drilling being undertaken through these rig owners. Section 35 H defines the powers of the Board. This section actually merges the provision of the previous section 35 F and section 35 H (power to levy user charges) in a common heading. However, this section authorizes the Board to

229

enter premises, for investigation and measurement between 9 am and 5 pm, in presence of the occupier or a duly authorized person, after giving a due notice. Further, it authorizes the Board from time to time prescribe the basis of collection of user charges, the categories of customers to be charged, areas where such charges shall be levied. In due course, it may evolve a sound basis of regulating multiple usages of groundwater through a mix of policy and pricing mechanisms. Section 35 J has been added as a new section to specifically deal with rainwater harvesting. This has been done in line with the provisions of the Model Bill 2005. The introduction of a specific legislative sanction for rainwater harvesting will be a major step in promoting rainwater harvesting. The GNCT of Delhi has so far been promoting rainwater harvesting through executive orders and budgetary layouts. But this section would give a legislative backing to scale up the rainwater harvesting efforts. Penalties defined in the Schedules have been enhanced keeping in view the fact that they should serve as a sufficient deterrent. ANNEXURE 'B' Water Management By Use Of Recycled Waste Water Concept of water management includes water conservation, water harvesting and water recycling for sustainable water management. In India traditional water conservation and water harvesting have been in practice and many cities have modified their byelaws to encourage water harvesting in residential buildings of new development. But little have been done in water reuse and recycling within the building as a strategy to reduce the water demand. Delhi, the capital of India, is experiencing a rapid population increase from 0.4 million in 1911 to 13.8 million in 2001. The Delhi Development Authority is projecting a population of 23 million in 2021 and water requirement of 1150 million gallon per day (MGD). On the other hand Delhi Jal Board's (DJB) capacity augmentation plan 2021 says the capacity can be increased to a maximum of 919MGD by all possible sources (Table 1) Inadequate and intermittent supply of piped water has led unchecked exploitation of ground water resources in different parts of the city.

About 40 percent of the treated water supplied by the DJB daily is never used for drinking. Instead it is used for domestic chores, including flushing of toilets. The avoidable wastage has continued for years even as the city's demand for drinking water is rising by 20MGD per year. From the breakup of use of water required for different activity in our day-to-day like-viz for drinking and cooking, for washing, for toilet flushing, for industries, for recreation, for maintaining garden and urban green, it can be seen that 90 lpcd is absolutely waste is about 40% of the total demand. Table 2: Breakup of water usage for 50 gpcd is as under: Purpose 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Drinking Cooking Washing clothes Washing utensil Washing hand and faces Bathing Floor washing Flushing of toilets Total @ 225 lpcd Potable @ 30 gpcd (135 lpcd) 05 10 30 20 10 60 30 60 135 lpcd 90 lpcd Non-potable @ gpcd (90 lpcd)

As per the new building byelaws in Delhi, all the buildings having a minimum discharge of 10,000 or above liters per day shall incorporate wastewater recycling system. The recycled water would be used for horticulture purpose (GOI notification, 28th July 2001). Although the agencies are taking care while sanctioning the plans but enforcement of the provisions are to be strengthened at ground. The figure of 10,000

231

liter discharge generated from a plot would mean it should have at least 32 dwelling units with a total population of 144 persons. The group housing societies, shopping malls, institutions, hotels etc are suitable to implement the provisions. Group Housing Societies and other institutions mentioned above have bore wells of their own, which rather made their supply 24 hours in spite of the intermittent supply by Delhi Jal Board. In these societies / institutions the Jal Board water is collected in the under ground reservoir (Wherever possible) from where the water is pumped to the overhead tanks from where connection to the residents are provided. These overhead tanks are also filled with ground water whenever required and hence water is made available 24 hours. Due to the absence of adequate water supply there is over exploitation of ground water. The level of groundwater is decreasing at a rate of 0.5 m per annum. Therefore immediate measure should be taken to discourage the resident to extract ground water for residential use. Thus there is a need for alternative methods to reduce the residential water demand in such institutions viz-a-viz abstraction of ground water. WATER MANAGEMENT IN INSTITUTION & GROUP HOUSING SOCIETIES It is found from a primary survey conducted (in 2005) by a group of planning students from School of Planning and Architecture, New Delhi (sample from group housing apartments) that most of these group-societies are spending on an average Rs.20,000/ - per month to collect water (an average of @ Rs.600/- per dwelling unit per month) from the sources other than the supply from Delhi Jal Board. The 27 percent reduction in domestic demand will lead to a saving of Rs.5400/- per month and Rs.64,800/- per year. Factor 27% has been assumed on the basis that 80% of 90 lpcd shall be converted into sewage and out of remaining another 5% has been discounted for other losses. Requirement of Space The major component of such recycle system is Septic tank, disinfections chamber, simple sand filters (at least two, one for sand by) and pump sets and pipe systems. The septic tank should be able to retain 11,450 liters for two days. The capacity required for the same should be around 24 k-liters and size=3x4.5x2 m3 will be sufficient. The total area required for all other components can be located within the plot. The recycled water can be pumped to the tank over the apartment blocks and connected to the toilet/flush with totally separate plumbing system. Economics of the System The construction of the underground septic tank of capacity of 27k-liters (@2/- per liter) Construction of Sand filter two in number Cost of pump + additional plumbing etc. The total capital cost of the system

= Rs. 54,000/= Rs. 40,000/= Rs. 26,000/= Rs. 1,20,000/-

After discounting a saving of Rs. 64,800/- per year from the procurement of additional water, the total capital cost will be recovered within two year.

Kindly refer to your letter no. Dir/MPD-2021/DDA/F-298/607EP dated 11.06.2004 addressed to Chief Secretary with a copy to CEO regarding Perspective Plan for Infrastructure Services for Delhi-2021 pertaining to Sewerage Sector from DJB side. This is in continuation to our letter no. DJB/CE(C) III/F 46/2003/2150-53 dated 21.07.2003 on the same subject with further details.

Sd/(RAKESH SETH) MEMBER (D.R.) Encl: As above. Sh. Madhukar Gupta,Vice Chairman, Vikas Sadan, INA, New Delhi-110023. Perspective Plan for Infrastructure Services for Delhi-2021-Sewerage The total area of the National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCTD) is 148639 Hac. As per 2001 Census the population of Delhi is 137.8 Lacs. Taking into account, the past trends, the population of Delhi is estimated to be around 190 Lacs by 2011 & 230 Lacs by 2021. PRESENT WATER AVAILABILITY: The Delhi Jal Board having an installed capacity of 650 MGD against which on an average 670 MGD potable water is being produced by optimization of Water Treatment Plants. PRESENT WATER DEMAND: The present water demand for potable water in Delhi has been assessed as 828 MGD @ 60 gpcd for all uses. No allowance is made for use of potable water for parks and lawns / horticulture / agriculture purposed due to water shortage. PROJECTED WATER DEMAND IN 2006: The Delhi Jal Board anticipates that by the year 2006 about 990 MGD potable water @ 60 gpcd for a population of 165 Lacs shall be required. However, the DDA has projected the 2006 water demand as 1320 MGD @ 80 gpcd.

233

PROJECTED WATER DEMAND IN 2011: The Delhi Jal Board anticipates that buy the year 2011 about 1140 MGD potable water @ 60 gpcd for a population of 230 Lacs shall be required. However, the DDA has projected the 2021 water demand as 1840 MGD @ 80 gpcd. BASIS FOR ADOPTING PER CAPITA WATER REQUIREMENT: The Delhi Jal Board is adopting domestic consumption as per CPHEEO Manual-1999 on water supply which provides for domestic consumption in Metropolitan and Mega Cities as 150 LPCD plus 15% losses. As per the Manual, the water requirement for other uses is to be assessed separately. To assess the water demand for other uses, the Delhi Jal Board has followed the Master Plan Document-2001. Consequently, the per capita water requirement works out as follows: i) ii) iii) iv) Domestic (150+22) Industrial, Commercial & community requirement at 45,000 ltrs. per Ha. Per day Special uses, embassies floating population, hotels, Airports and Railway Stations etc. Fire protection @ 1% of total demand Total

INFRASTRUCTURE: PHYSICAL Physical infrastructure 2021 projections: It has been projected by DDA that for 2021 projected population of the city will be 230 Lacs and requirement of potable water is 805 MGD and non-potable water is 1035 MGD. Total sewage generated has been worked out to 1012 MGD by DDA which seems to be on the lower side keeping in view of the requirement of water worked out by DDA to the tune of (805 MGD + 1035 MGD) 1840 MGD whether it is potable or non-potable because both the water will generate the waste water.

1.2

Resources requirement for year - 2021 : SEWERAGE: Sewage quantum is worked out @ 80% of domestic water requirement per capita (50 gpcd) catering to 40 gpcd (180 lpcd) excluding handling of animal, commercial and industrial waste water. PRESENT STATUS: The present water supply in Delhi is 640 MGD. generation are as under: i) ii) Water supplied by DJB = 640 x 0.8 Estimated sewage generated From extraction of water from Private bore holes / tube wells: Industrial waste water At present, the details of sewage = 512.4 MGD

iii)

= 100.0 MGD = 40.0 MGD 652.4 MGD

To cater to the growing population, the water supply will be augmented to 919 MGD in 2011/2021. The wastewater that will be generated will be of the order of 806 MGD for the year 2011 for total water supply of 919 MGD by DJB. As additional sources of water have not been identified for supply of water to DJB upto 2021, it can be seen that population growth results in reduced per capita water supply and corresponding reduction in per capita waste water generation. The total quantum of wastewater however is not expected to change. The details regarding sewage treatment capacities are as under: SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANTS (CAPACITY IN MGD) S.No. 1. 2. 3.

The DSIDC is constructing 14 CETPs for Industrial Waste Water for a total capacity of 40 MGD. PROPOSED STRATEGIES FOR DIFFERENT ASPECTS: i) ii) iii) iv) Drawing up a detailed blue print for augmenting sewerage system of Delhi, which may include following key proposals. Phasing of new work for total coverage of city with interim arrangements. In the old city and other areas identified in some places, new sewerage lines can not be laid and the existing sewer lines have to be de-silted and rehabilitated. Technological changes : The Delhi Jal Board has switched over to the DBO Contracts for setting up the STPs. In these cases, availability of land with the DJB is mentioned and the contractor has the option for offering the suitable technology, which can fulfill other specified parameters. Sewerage system in the whole Delhi, except NDMC and Cantt. areas is being laid and maintained by Delhi Jal Board where surface drains are being constructed and maintained by General Wing, MCD, CSE (MCD), DDA, PWD, Irrigation and Flood Department, Govt. of NCT of Delhi etc.

236

Decentralised STPs with capacity of 3-5 MLD at the sub-city level, (10-15 Lacs population) and at community level if environmentally sustainable (mandatory for new developments). Decentralised STPs for smaller capacities can be set up keeping in view the techno economically feasibility and viability and availability of land by the DDA. INSTITUTIONAL IMPROVEMENT: The DJB has already set up 21 divisions by restructuring for the maintenance of water distribution system and sewage network. Suggestion for implementation of principle of "polluter pays" is very good and can be examined by Delhi Jal Board. As far as to create one single agency for the management of surface drainage and sewerage is a cumbersome subject because lot of agencies are involved in the management of surface drainage whereas sewerage system is managed by DJB except in NDMC and Cantt areas. ENCOURAGING PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS: Public Private Partnership for the collection of sewerage, its treatment and disposal of treated effluents can be adopted in phases. DJB has already adopted the public private partnership for the maintenance of Sonia Vihar Water Treatment Plant (under construction) and at some places, newly constructed Sewage Treatment Plants are being operated and maintained by some private agencies at present. PRESENT STATUS OF SEWERAGE SYSTEM: Sewage treatment plant & ancillary works: Out of 17 STPs under construction all the 17 STPs have been completed. In east Delhi, Delhi Jal Board has planned to augment the capacity of Sewage Treatment Plant by 45 MGD at Kondli and 25 MGD at Yamuna Vihar. The tenders of Kondli Plant are before the Evaluation Committee. An effluent Pumping Station at Yamuna Vihar is proposed for which short listing of firms had been done and offers are being invited. The existing Sewerage Conveyance System is a large network of branch peripheral and Trunk Sewers. There are 28 main Trunk Sewers with sizes ranging from 700mm dia. to 2400 mm dia. with a total length of about 130 kms. The balance length of sewage conveyance system comprises of peripheral sewers and internal sewers of small sizes and a total length of approximate 6000 kms. The Trunk Sewers have been laid over the years at different stages. Some of these are as old as 40-60 years old. The condition of Trunk Sewers specially the older one has deteriorated as a result of silting and settlements. Trunk sewers: It is estimated that about 91 kms. of Trunk Sewers need desilting and rehabilitation including repair of settlement. Work for desilting/rehabilitation in 22 kms. length has already been completed. The following major works of rehabilitation of Trunk Sewers is in progress: i) ii) Desilting of Trunk Sewer No. 4 from Gurudwara Rashid Market to Preet Vihar SPS Shahdara. Desilting of Trunk Sewer No. 5 Shahdara.

iv)

Laying of sewer lines: There are 567 unauthorised / regularized colonies in Delhi. The status of sewerage system in Unauthorised / Regularised Colonies, Resettlement Colonies and Urban Villages are as under :S.No. 1. 2. 3. Status Unauthorised / Regularised Colonies Resettlement Colonies Urban Villages Total nos. 567 44 135 Sewer lines laid 482 44 98

Replacement of sewer lines: Old / damaged sewer lines are being replaced in a phased manner. It is targeted to replace 585 kms. of existing sewer lines. Replacement of old/damaged sewer line is 116.15 kms. Non-conventional source of energy: Vaish Committee has recommended for utilization of Bio-Gas at various sewage Treatment Plants for generation of electricity which can be utilized for operating the STPs. 1440 Lac cft of Bio-Gas generated from Okhla Sewage Treatment Plant was

238

supplied to residents having sewage gas connection in adjacent Colonies and revenue of Rs. 32 Lacs was collected. Bio-Gas Engines at new Plants of Rithala were commissioned in September-2002 to generate the electricity. Which in turn is utilized for operating the plants itself, there saving of Rs. 35 Lacs P.M. in electricity bill was possible. PROPOSED STEPS TO BE TAKEN, HEAD WISE TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS FOR 2021: 1. TRUNK SEWERS: There are 28 main Trunk Sewers with sizes ranging from 700 mm dia. to 2400 mm dia. with a total length of 130 kms. The condition of these Trunk Sewers has deteriorated considerably and also silted up to large extent, so DJB has been rehabilitating these sewers in a phased manner. All Trunk Sewers will be desilted in a phased manner. 2. LAYING OF SEWER LINE IN UNAUTHORISED / REGULARIZED COLONIES: At present there are 567 unauthorised / regularized colonies. Sewage facilities will be provided in all the colonies subject to technical feasibility. 3. LAYING OF SEWER LINE IN URBAN VILLAGES : At present there are 135 Urban Villages. Efforts will be made to provide sewage facilities in all the villages, subject to technical feasibility. 4. LAYING OF SEWER LINES IN RESETTLEMENT COLONIES : Sewage facilities have been provided in all the Resettlement Colonies. 5. PERIPHERAL AND BRANCH SEWERS : Old Sewer Lines are either inadequate or silted. This results in less discharge to SPS / STPs. It is proposed to replace old 4" dia. and 6" dia. sewer lines. 6. NON CONVENTIONAL SOURCE OF ENERGY : It is proposed that all major STPs will be provided with Gas Engines so that they are self sufficient with the power supply. 7. SEWAGE TREATMENT - AUGMENTATION WORKS : M/s.TCE was given study for various augmentation works. Draft Final Report has been submitted by M/s. TCE. The augmentation work will be completed in a time bound manner. 8. SEWAGE FACILITIES IN RURAL VILLAGES : At present DJB is not laying sewerage system in Rural Villages. Matter will be taken up with Govt. of NCT of Delhi to provide sufficient funds for laying of sewers and treatment of generated sewage on the basis of schemes under-Grant-in-Aid.

239

9.

SEWAGE FACILITIES IN UNAUTHORISED COLONIES : At present as per the instructions of Hon'ble High Court, Sewer facilities cannot be provided in these colonies. These Colonies are Regularised by Delhi Govt. from time to time. Sewerage system will be laid in these colonies on there being regularized or if Govt. approves laying of sewer in these colonies. Sewerage system will be provided wherever schemes are technically feasible. In addition, following are the new initiatives taken by Delhi Jal Board. It is proposed to construct 6 STPs on the mouth of following drains: 1. For the drains out falling into river Yamuna: a) Civil Mill Drain b) Additional STP on Delhi Gate Drain c) Barapulla Nallah 2. For a) b) c) the drains out falling into Najafgarh Drain: Palam Drain Ring Road Drain Daryai Nallah

We are setting up a Pilot Project in collaboration with CSIR to treat sewage flowing into the drains by using microbes wherever land is not available for constructing STPs. We have also used of enzymes in Balbir Nagar Drain to treat sewage. The results are encouraging. It is proposed to use enzymes at Kondli STP on regular basis. Its use will decrease consumption of air and consequently drastic saving in power consumption. On all water Treatment Plants wastewater is produced from backwashing of filters and desludging of clarifiers. These effluents carry various chemicals and at present are discharged into various drains, which ultimately pollutes river Yamuna. It is proposed to set up waste recovery / recycling plants on all the water Treatment Plants by the end of 2011 so that effluent is stopped from reaching drains / Yamuna and recovery of potable water is benefited. It is proposed to set up power plants based on sludge gas being produced at Okhla sewage disposal works, so that sufficient power is produced at the plant itself. This plant will be constructed on BOOT basis. This will be source of power generation based on non-conventional source of energy. The list of major works to be completed by 2021 is given at Annexure - A.

POWER: Central Electricity Authority has estimated Power requirement of 10,708 MW in the 17th Draft Annual Survey for the year 2021. However, the actual demand may be higher in view of the realistic growth related to Commonwealth Games 2010, Asian Games 2014 which Delhi is competing to host. To meet this demand; there is a need to augment the Power Generation, Transmission, Sub-Transmission & Distribution Capacity within the State. As per Govt. of India Policy 60-70% of the load demand is required to be met through core generation within the State. However, local generation is limited to only about 17% of the requirement. Since Coal based generation in Delhi is not permitted due to environmental and ash disposal constraints only Gas based Power Plants are envisaged to be installed in Delhi. Recently 10 mcmd of Gas has been allotted for Delhi, which will facilitate to establish the Power Plants of about 2000 MW capacity. Table below indicates the existing and the proposed Power Plants / Generation Capacity within Delhi: Existing Power Stations S. No. Name of the Station 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. I.P. Station RPH GT Pragati-I BTPS Total Proposed Power Stations 1. 2. 3. Pragati-II Pragati-III I.P. Total Grand Total 330.0 1000.0 700.0 2030.0 3545.0 Installed Capacity (MW) 147.5 135.0 182.0 330.0 720.0 1514.5

Since the projected load demand is expected to reach 11,000 MW by 2021, the existing generation capacity in Delhi including the proposed additional 2000 MW capacity at Pragati Ph.II, Pragati Ph. III and Replacement units at I.P. will not be sufficient and the gap between the core generation and the load demand will further increase. To reduce this gap, at least 3 Nos. generating stations each of 1000 MW capacity shall be required. About 40 hectares of land would be required for each of such facilities. This could

243

be compacted by going for higher generation for each of such facilities. This could be compacted by going for higher generation in one place provided gas is available as required. Balance generation could be brought from outside Delhi for which following arrangements have been made: Location Jhajjar (Haryana) DVC (West Bengal) THDC (Uttranchal) TOTAL TRANSMISSION NETWORK: Though 400KV D/C Transmission Ring around Delhi has been established to draw Power from the Northern Grid but this Transmission Network is inadequate to draw required Power from Northern Grid to meet the load of about 11,000 MW keeping in view the N -1 Criteria at outage of one largest Transformer in each Sub-Stn. and other redundancies as per CEA's planning norms. Existing number of Grid Stations of 400/220KV, 220/66-33KV are as follows: a) 400KV Sub-Stns. - 2 Nos. 400/220KV Sub-Stn. at Bamnauli (4x315 MVA) 400/220KV Sub-Stn. at Bawana ( 4x315 MVA) 220 KV Sub-Stns. - 20 Nos.

3950 MW

b)

Two more Grid Stations one at Maharani Bagh and other at Mundka are under execution. 400/220KV Grid Sub-Stn. at Maharani Bagh is under construction while work at 400/220KV Grid Sub-Stn. at Mundka is expected to start in 2007-08. Thus in order to draw Power from the Northern Grid to meet the expected Load requirement and to keep contingencies and margins, 4 No. new 400KV Grid Stations would require to be established. The locations of two Grid Stations have already been identified in East Delhi and in South East Delhi. Location of other two Stations would be identified based upon the load development plans as per the proposed Master Plan. In addition, in feeds from 765 KV proposed ring in NCR Region would also be required to be established. On an average 400/220KV out door Grid would be established in 60 acres.

244

Further, keeping in view the long-term requirements of Power in Delhi provision of at least 2 no. 765/800 KV Grid Stations would also required to be kept. The land requirement would be 100 acres / 40 Ha. for each of the station. Correspondingly, 220 KV Grid Stations and down stream 66KV 1KV Grid Station would also require to be established to meet the load requirement of newly developed areas and increasing demand in the existing developed areas. About 40 no. 220/66KV and 220/33KV Grid Station would be required while at present only 22 Stations are existing. As such land requirement for at least 20 more 220KV Grid Stations would be required. Further, in the developed areas where the load growth is taking place, indoor 220KV Grid Stations would be established while in the out skirts and the newly developed areas proposed in the Master Plan of 220 KV outdoor Grid Stations are proposed. CEA has prepared the norms for the land requirement of the various sub-stations. As per details below: 220 KV Sub-Stn. 66 KV Sub-Stn. 33KV Sub-Stn. 11 KV Sub-Stn. 180 X 165 Sq. mtrs. (2.96 hectares) 90 X 95 Sq. mtrs. (0.86 hectares) 60 X 45 Sq.mtrs. (0.3 hectares) 10 X 8 Sq. mtrs.

66/ 11KV, 33/11 KV and 11/11.4 KV Grid Stations would require to be established at the load centers and adequate provisions for the land would be kept in the Master Plan. DEMAND SIDE MANAGEMENT AND ENERGY CONSERVATION MEASURES: In order to arrest the run away load demand, Demand Side Management is also considered very necessary which could result from adopting the following: Green Building Bylaws to reduce the Energy requirement of the new Buildings: Energy efficient building Bylaws / Building Code has been drafted by Bureau of Energy Efficiency, which may be considered mandatory in the Master Plan. Use of Energy Efficient Devices: Use of CFLs, Electronic Chokes and Solar Water Heaters have been made mandatory by Notification of GNCTD for all Govt. Buildings. These measures could be considered for adoption for all new buildings including Institutional, Commercial and Private.

ANNEXURE-IV (i) MUNICIPAL CORPORATION OF DELHI OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR-IN-CHIEF (CSE) TOWN HALL: DELHI. No. F-406/ DNC/2003/44 To, The Member Secretary, N.C.R. Planning Board, India Habitat Centre, New Delhi. Sub:- Strategies / Master Plan-2021 for Solid Waste for Delhi City. Sir, A telephonic message has been received from N.C.R. Planning Board that they are preparing the Master Plan-2021 for NCR Region pertaining to Solid Waste for Delhi City. The Municipal Corporation of Delhi has already forwarded the same to the Delhi Development Authority for incorporating the same in Master Plan-2021. A copy of the same is attached herewith, for ready reference. Dated: 28/04/2004

Encl: As above.

Sd/Director-in-Chief (CSE)

Copy to: i) ii) iii) P.S. (U.D.) for f/o information. Commissioner, MCD Addl. Commer. (CSE) Director-in-Chief (CSE) MUNICIPAL CORPORATION OF DELHI CONSERVANCY & SANITATION ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT The CSE Department of Municipal Corporation of Delhi is one of the important departments and responsible for management and handling of solid waste as well as disposal of storm water drainage form its jurisdiction which is about 94% of the total area of Delhi. This department is carrying out sweeping from the streets, lanes & roads and collecting

246

garbage received from the residents in its Dhalaos, besides storage, transportation and disposal of waste at Sanitary Land Fill sites. Considering the present population of 14 millions and 500 grams of domestic waste per capita (NEERI study), the garbage generated is 6000 to 7000 M.T. per day. With the present pace of growth of population, the population by 2021 shall be around 22 million and garbage generation shall be around 20,000 M.T. per day with an increase @ 5% approximately (NEERI study). STRATEGIES FOR MPD-2021 FOR SOLID WASTE Collection / Storage: a) Community Bins / Receptacles: Presently, the MCD have provided Dhalaos and receptacles / community bins at different locations in the colonies/areas for collection and storage of municipal waste. It is generally found that the DDA does not adequately provide such kind of spaces in the existing as well as in new colonies. It is proposed that a space measuring 100 sq.mt. may be provided on every 8 to 10 thousand population in the colonies / areas to cater to the needs of storage of garbage. In addition to this, spaces measuring around 200 sq.mt. are to be provided for segregation of different kind of non-biodegradable waste. b) Attendance Office: The collection of solid waste is one of the crucial components of the solid waste management. To have effective control in the field as well as on the work, the office of Assistant Sanitary Inspector, a small office, consisting of 100 sq. meter is to be provided in each colony to have effective attendance system and interface with the Residents Welfare Associations. This projection is based on the recommendations of DUEIIP. c) Facilities for Kabariwalas: It has been observed that the recyclable waste is being sold to Kabariwalas, which is subsequently recycled depending upon its uses. It would be necessary to have at least two markets in each zone for all 12 zones of MCD, i.e. recycling centers / kabari markets are to be developed by the DDA or MCD to reduce and re-use the recyclable part of the municipal garbage. For developing this kind of facility close to business district centers or near markets, a space of about 1000 sq.mt. shall be required. d) Space for Storage: The Municipal Corporation of Delhi has recently handed over the land for development of Millennium Park on Ring Road to the DDA under the orders of the Hon'ble L.G. Delhi, measuring 4 Acres. In lieu of this land, it was promised by the Engineer Member, DDA that land measuring 2 Acres will be provided to MCD by the DDA, but, unfortunately, this could not be materialized. Space measuring around 2 Acres is to be provided in central location for storage of tools and equipments of the CSE Department, in lieu of the land already handed over to DDA for Millennium Park.

247

Transportation: a) Workshop & Parking facilities: A space for providing adequate shelter for repair and maintenance of vehicles and other heavy equipments is required to have effective transportation system. Presently, the CSE Department is having about 700 refuse removal trucks and100 Front-end-Loaders for transportation of waste being generated by the city, which is likely to increase further based on the quantum of garbage generation by 2021. To rationalize the pace of garbage generation, it is required to have 2200 vehicles (NEERI report), for which parking and workshop facility in the existing as well as new colonies likely to come up by 2021 is required to be provided. On an average, a space of area measuring 3000 sq.mt. for at least 5 of the existing areas of different zones, namely Shahdara (South) Zone, Narela Zone, Najafgarh Zone, South Zone and S.P. Zone, is required. For further development of colonies, additional space @ 3000 sq.mt. is required to be given for developing parking and workshop facilities for transportation of garbage. b) Transfer Stations: To have effective and economical transportation system, intermediate transfer stations are required to be made. It is proposed that at least land for six transfer stations measuring 5000 Sq. Mtr. each may be provided in each of the 12 zones spreading in north, south, east and west directions of the city. Disposal: a) Landfill Sites: Presently, the solid waste is being dumped at three SLF sites, namely Bhalswa, Ghazipur and Okhla. These landfill sites have saturated and outlived their normal life. As per Solid Waste (Management & Handling) Rules, 2000 notified by the Ministry of Environment and Forest, Govt. of India, the Engineered Sanitary Land Fill sites are required to be developed in each direction of the city to have economical and effective solid waste management. Recently, the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in its order has pointed out that at least 10 garbage processing facilities are to be provided. The requirement of land for development of engineered S.L.F. site should preferably be in low lying areas and the agency / MCD would be developing it with proper liner for gases and leaches management as per guidelines issued by the Ministry of Environment & Forest, Govt. of India. The approximate area of each landfill site should at least take care of next 20-25 years and garbage intake capacity of 2000 M.T. daily and the area of proposed land for SLF should preferably be around 1500 acres in totality. b) Processing facilities: For developing processing facilities for different kind of waste and specialized waste, like Slaughter House Waste and Cow dung, Composting/Pellets etc. by opting various technologies, space measuring about 10 acres for each facility is

248

required. These processing facilities should be closed to the waste generating centers namely Dairy colonies or near Slaughter House. Thus, making the total requirement of land as 100 acres for 10 Processing Units. All these processing facilities are likely to come up on public private partnership basis, as they are highly capital-intensive units. Disposal of Storm Water Drainage: The disposal of storm water is one of the crucial components for the urban structure services. In most part of the city wherever low lying colonies have been developed by the Agencies, the responsibility of disposal of storm water lies on the shoulders of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi, for which pumping facilities within the Complex are required. In some colonies, on account of non-availability of space, the problem of water stagnation persists and the residents have to suffer a lot. Considering human factors, it is proposed that wherever low habitation exists in the approved area, the space of 1000 sq.mt. should be provided to MCD for setting up pumping facilities for proposal disposal of storm water.

ANNEXURE-IV(ii) RAKESH MEHTA, IAS COMMISSIONER Dear, You had made observations that you would like to have Master Plan for Treatment and Disposal 2005-2024, which has been prepared by COWI Consultants, so that the same can be incorporated in the Master Plan 2021. As per the Master Plan 2005-2024, a number of activities have been listed in various sites and a number of new technologies have been suggested by the COWI, which includes the following:(i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) (vi) Setting up Construction and Demolition Waste Treatment Facility Methanisation Plants Compost Plants Bio-Cell Technology Refuse Derived Fuels Home Composting MUNICIPAL CORPORATION OF DELHI Town Hall, Chandni Chowk, Delhi-110006

I am enclosing herewith the relevant copies of the Master Plan, which can be included in the Master Plan, 2021. Action Plan for proposed facilities for Waste Treatment and Disposal during the Master Plan Period 2005-2024 is attached at Annexure - 'I'. The details of time frame required for implementing various waste treatment project is attached at Annexure 'II'. The requirement of land area for various waste treatment facilities for Municipal Solid Waste Management may be seen at Annexure - 'III'. The total area of land requirement as per the Master Plan is 65.6 hectares, whereas the total area currently available is 41.2 hectares. In the Annexure - III, it has been estimated that the total investment for the above facilities upto 2024 would be Rs.3719.88 crores. The revenue

249

scheme on account of these facilities as has been listed in the Master Plan would amount to Rs.2855.70 crores. With regards, Yours sincerely, Sd/ (RAKESH MEHTA) Shri A.K. Jain, Commissioner (Planning), Delhi Development Authority, Vikas Minar, I.P. Estate, New Delhi - 110002. ACTION PLAN NEED FOR THE ACTION PLAN: A Plan of Action has been developed to provide a time schedule and overall breakdown of the main activities for implementation of the Master Plan. The format of the Plan of Action is in such a way that provides an overview of the implementation rather than engages in too many details and inter-linkages between tasks. The aim is to develop a format that can be taken over by MCD, revised and used for monitoring purposes. The purpose of Action Plan is to evaluate in detail the actions required to convert strategy into practice. The Action plan sets out in detail the steps taken in implementing each component of the overall strategy over a period of time. Structure of the Action Plan: The Action Plan provides a list of activities for management of municipal solid waste in Delhi and assigns a time frame for implementation of the specified activity. The Action Plan is divided into three time segments: The short-term period 2005-2009 (5 years); The medium-term period 2010-2014 (5 years); The long-term period 2015-2024 (10 years). The Action Plan is more detailed in its provisions for the short term i.e. for a period of five years. The medium and long-term provisions are less detailed and focus on the major objectives and targets as the detail of the plan will have to take into account the success of the implementation of the objectives for the short term as well as the actual developments. Development of the Action Plan: Action Plan is a result of continuous interaction with the consultants and the MCD officials. The listed out activities and their time frame of implementation was discussed with MCD officials to arrive at realistic targets.

250

The Action Plan has been developed by the consultants on the basis of "Financial Model", the details of which are provided in Volume 7, Master Plan Appendices. The Financial model provides forecast for municipal solid waste quantities, waste flow and land requirements for treatment facilities. It also provides forecast for revenue and the overall costing and financial analysis.

Current Approval Procedure for Waste Facilities An issue that is a serious hindrance for timely implementation of projects is the current approval procedure for waste management facilities (and others). The procedures required in taking projects from concept to completion require several procedural issues to be completed, not only within MCD but also with other Authorities. Typical procedures followed in various projects along with timeframes required are stated in table. Time frames mentioned here are only an approximation on the basis of past experience, in the case of landfills and compost plants.

Under the current regime, it is thus likely that development of new treatment and disposal sites will take up to 56 months or almost 5 years from site identification to start of construction of the planned facility. However, this time may be reduced if some of the above activities are run in parallel, c.f. section 3.4.4.
