MCD key panel to take up pending plans today
New Delhi: Municipal Corporation of Delhi's standing committee will take up on Friday various business proposals pending for two and a half years. There will be around 98 agendas, such as the comprehensive contract for the replacement of LED lights in six zones and the construction of a new multilevel parking to serve the requirements of visitors at Bharat Darshan Park.
The agenda also includes proposals for the collection, transportation, processing and management of construction and demolition waste in Shahdara north and south, the extension of security services at Hindu Rao Hospital, multitask workers at Rajan Babu Hospital and Maharishi Valmiki Hospital, private security services at Kasturba Hospital and the comprehensive operation and maintenance of 24 mechanical road sweepers for two years.
The meeting will also discuss 51 layout plans.
In Oct 2024, MCD developed a comprehensive proposal to replace approximately four lakh LED lights on streets, parks, etc., in a phased manner across four zones: central, south, west and Najafgarh. The proposal, costing Rs 1,144.3 crore, also includes the operation and maintenance of these lights for 10 years. It will need a final nod from the standing committee for finalising the rate and the agency.
