Dy CM Maurya reviews ongoing development projects in Prayagraj
1 2 Prayagraj: Deputy chief minister Keshav Prasad Maurya on Sunday reviewed the ongoing development projects, including the progress of the under-construction ring road. He said that the ring road has been divided into 7-8 sectors, and the land located within one-kilometre limit inside and outside the ring road should have a proper action plan. The plan aims to develop the area by dividing it in terms of education, health, residential, commercial activities, entertainment, and sports by the Prayagraj Development Authority or Housing Development Council. He also directed the Vice Chairman of the Prayagraj Development Authority to conduct a checking campaign to monitor the activities of plotting in this area. Maurya, while reviewing the projects, asked officials of the power department to prevent line loss but emphasised that there should be no harassment of consumers under any circumstances and to ensure adequate power supply. He also instructed officials of the power department to increase the capacity of transformers in areas where the number of connections have increased and to prevent illegal billing. The Deputy CM inquired about the complaints related to wrong billing from the power department officials, following which the superintending engineer stated that such complaints are resolved quickly. He mentioned that under the new system, an online consumer app was developed, which can be downloaded from Google Play Store. By logging in with the account/connection number, load can be increased, electricity bills can be downloaded, all information related to electricity bills can be obtained, and bills can be generated and paid. Other facilities can be applied for online. Maurya also asked officials to take stern action against land mafias involved in grabbing state land. He instructed the Prayagraj Municipal Corporation to identify the state land of the city and the land of the Gram Sabha located in the extended area, fence it with barbed wire, and develop land by preparing an action plan related to developmental schemes there. Maurya asked PMC officials to get all the drains cleaned before the monsoon rains, so there are no complaints of overflowing drains or waterlogging during the rains. He also said that all the projects related to Maha Kumbh, whose work is still pending, should be completed quickly. If some deficiencies come to light in any project, they should be rectified with quality. He asked the Municipal Corporation and NHAI to coordinate with each other and ensure that the highways, city roads, and street lights are lit every day. He mentioned that complaints were received about the plants planted during Maha Kumbh drying up due to a lack of proper care. He directed the concerned officials to take it seriously and take effective action to save them from drying up. Maurya, while reviewing Har Ghar Nal Se Jal, said that action should be ensured to provide water quickly to those houses where tap water was not supplied yet, and strict action should be taken against any agency found negligent in the implementation of this scheme.

Green belt to come up on both sides of Ganga, Yamuna
The 2031 Master Plan prepared by Prayagraj Development Authority proposes establishing a green belt on both sides of the Ganga and Yamuna river. This plan also includes construction of a ropeway at Sangam. The plan involves creating a green belt along the banks of the Ganga and Yamuna rivers, as well as along the Ring Road and Bypass Roads. As per the plan, extensive plantations of shade-bearing as-well-as medicinal plants will be carried out along the banks of Ganga and Yamuna which would add to the tourism potential of the city. Besides, no construction would be allowed in the green belt area, except for ponds, temples and temporary shelters, for which prior permission from the competent authority will be required. According to the secretary, Prayagraj Development Authority (PDA), Ajeet Singh, the green belt would be developed on both sides of the twin rivers in both rural as well as urban areas of the district. In accordance with Master Plan 2031, he further said that guidelines have been issued for restraining any construction activity in the green belt area on the banks of the twin rivers. As per the guidelines, permission for construction of ponds, shelters and temples etc in an area measuring up to 200 meters from the bank of Ganga and Yamuna river can be permitted only if the area of the plot was not less than one acre. Besides, the applicant must submit a plan along with the building plan which ensures that it would not pollute the river. No objection certificate (NOC) of different departments were to be mandatorily obtained by the applicant. Further, the drainage of the construction will not be released directly into the river but arrangements will have to be made to drain it through other drains or sewage. In case of absence of a sewage system in the area, a septic tank will have to be made by the applicant from his own sources so that the water does not go into the river, the guidelines mentioned in Master Plan 2031 said. The entire construction proposal will have to be approved by Jal Nigam, Jal Sansthan or Prayagraj Development Authority besides approval of the government was also mandatory.
