Amit Shah reviews Delhi Master Plan 2041 with CM, officials
'Departments like the MCD and DDA have been asked to submit their feedback and suggestions. There might be discussions based on what they suggest. It is not immediately clear whether the government will send recommendations to the Centre on it,' a Delhi government official said. The DDA had submitted the draft of the MPD-2041 to the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs in April 2023. The plan is still pending final approval. In a post on X, Delhi PWD Minister Parvesh Verma termed the plan a 'roadmap for the coming decades of Delhi' and said it aims to balance population growth with infrastructure, environment, and employment. Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena, who also serves as the DDA chairman, had earlier approved the draft in a meeting held on February 28, 2023. He said the plan emphasises inclusive growth, sustainability, and innovation, highlighting transit-oriented development hubs, land pooling, heritage conservation, Yamuna riverfront rejuvenation, and urban regeneration as key features. The first Master Plan for Delhi was introduced in 1962 under the Delhi Development Act, 1957. Each plan is framed for a 20-year perspective and serves as a guideline for the city's planned development.

Delhi CM calls high-level meet to review master plan 2041
NEW DELHI: Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has convened a high-level meeting on Monday to review provisions of the long-pending Master Plan for Delhi (MPD) 2041, officials said. The Delhi Development Authority ( DDA ) had submitted the draft plan to the Centre in April 2023. However, it is yet to be approved by the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs. Sources said the DDA vice-chairman will give a detailed presentation on the draft before the chief minister and senior officials, including heads of departments related to industries, environment, and revenue. The meeting is expected to focus on industrial development, with the Delhi government planning to develop around 1,200 acres across three proposed industrial clusters - Kanjhawla, Ranikhera, and Baprola - under a public-private partnership (PPP) model. These clusters are being designed to attract service sectors such as IT, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and research, and are projected to create lakhs of jobs in the capital. Officials added that a global consultancy firm may be engaged to finalise the development model. At a meeting held on February 28, 2023, Delhi Lt Governor V K Saxena, who is also the DDA chairman, approved the draft MPD-2041. He said the plan's thrust was on inclusive development, sustainability, and innovative interventions, including transit-oriented development hubs, land pooling, heritage and Yamuna rejuvenation, and regeneration of the city. The first MPD was promulgated in 1962 under the Delhi Development Act, 1957. These master plans are prepared for a 20-year perspective period and provide a holistic framework for the planned development of the city.
