Capital may think about these options

Metro tracks cannot be built in every nook and corner of the city owing to variety of reasons
Let us accept it. Metro tracks cannot be built in every nook and corner of the city owing to a variety of reasons – congested localities and Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains (Amendment and Validation) Act, 2010, just to names two.
As per the Act, new construction is prohibited within 100 metres of a protected monument and there are restrictions on construction within 100 to 300 metres. Such restrictions are bound to create a problem in the city strewn with hundreds of protected monuments as was evident in November 2011 when the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) issued a stop-work notice to Delhi Metro Rail Corporation on the proposed Central Secretariat-Kashmere Gate section at Janpath.
Monorail is one solution
So what are the options? Experts believe that rail-based transport systems like monorail and Light Rail Transit System in Delhi should be the available options. In fact, the Delhi Cabinet last month gave in-principle approval for the monorail connectivity between Shastri Park Metro Station and Trilokpuri, via Laxmi Nagar in east Delhi.
“Fast and pollution-free elevated intercity new mode of transport Mono Rail has also been recommended as a mass transit in Master Plan Delhi (MPD) 2021. Besides having less noise as compared to other systems, it will also be aesthetically attractive,” Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit had announced. Monorail will be a realty in Delhi by 2017, she added.
Proposed route
According to a government official, it has been decided that the route will start from Shastri Park Metro Station passing through Yamuna Pushta Road, Rajaram Kohli Marg, Geeta Colony, Patparganj Road, Nirman Vihar Metro Station at Vikas Marg, Ganesh Nagar, New Patparganj Road, Sanjay Lake to terminate parallel with proposed Trilokpuri Metro Station.

हिमालय ही बुझाएगा एनसीआर की प्यास
Thursday, January 19, 2012
भविष्य में भागीरथ्ाी के सहारे चलेगी करोड़ाें की जिंदगी
दिल्ली-एनसीआर के पीने को पहाड़ से लाना पड़ेगा पूरा पानी
2021 में यहां होगी 25 हजार एमएलडी पानी की जरूरत
एनसीआर प्लानिंग बोर्ड ने दिखाई राह
गंगा किनारे गढ़ और बुलंदशहर में लगाने होंगे वाटर प्लांट
गाजियाबाद। अभी से बूंद-बूंद पानी को तरसते दिल्ली-एनसीआर में जब बीस बरस बाद भीषण जल संकट गहराएगा, तब बुरे वक्त में अपना हिमालय ही काम आएगा। विशेषज्ञों ने भागीरथी-गंगा का तीन गुना ज्यादा पानी लाकर राष्ट्रीय राजधानी क्षेत्र की प्यास बुझाने की राह सुझाई है। एनसीआर प्लानिंग बोर्ड (एनपीबी) ने मिशन 2021-31 में टिहरी बांध को दिल्ली-एनसीआर की ‘लाइफ लाइन’ बताया है।
एनपीबी की रिपोर्ट के मुताबिक, जनसंख्या विस्फोट के चलते अगले दस साल में दिल्ली-एनसीआर की जल जरूरत तीन गुना बढ़ जाएगी। 2021 में यहां पीने के लिए करीब 12 हजार एमएलडी पानी की दरकार होगी तो उद्योगों के लिए भी इतना ही पानी जरूरी होगा। हालात खराब इसलिए होंगे, क्योंकि यहां मांग के मुकाबले भूजल उपलब्धता एक चौथाई से भी कम रह जाएगी। हालात भांपकर प्लानिंग बोर्ड ने अभी से केन्द्र और राज्य सरकारों से तुरंत वैकल्पिक जल इंतजामों में जुटने की सिफारिश की है। इसका ब्लूप्रिंट भी सरकार को भेजा जा चुका है।

बॉटेनिकल गार्डन-कालिंदी कुंज मेट्रो कॉरिडोर के टेंडर जल्द
मेट्रो परियोजना में बाधा नहीं बनेगा एमओयू
नोएडा। बॉटेनिकल गार्डन से कालिंदी कुंज तक प्रस्तावित मेट्रो कॉरिडोर को लेकर दिल्ली मेट्रो रेल निगम (डीएमआरसी) की तैयारी चल रही है। एमओयू पर हस्ताक्षर होने का इंतजार न करते हुए इसकी निविदा प्रक्रिया पर काम शुरू कर दिया गया है। डीएमआरसी प्रवक्ता के मुताबिक अगले एक सप्ताह के अंदर टेंडर आमंत्रित कर दिए जाएंगे। पहले चरण में कॉरीडोर के निर्माण के लिए कंपनी का चयन किया जाएगा। इसके बाद स्टेशनों के लिए टेंडर आमंत्रित किए जाएंगे।
मेट्रो रेल परियोजना के तीसरे चरण के तहत प्रस्तावित सभी कॉरिडोर वर्ष 2016 तक पूरे किए जाने हैं। बॉटेनिकल गार्डन-जनकपुरी वेस्ट कॉरीडोर भी इसी चरण का हिस्सा है। परियोजना को समय से पूरा करने के लिए कालिंदी कुंज से जनकपुरी तक 33.494 किलोमीटर लंबे कॉरीडोर के निर्माण के लिए टेंडर आमंत्रण की प्रक्रिया शुरू कर दी गई है। इसी कड़ी में बॉटेनिकल गार्डन से कालिंदी कुंज तक करीब 874 करोड़ रुपये की लागत से बनने वालेे 3.494 किलोमीटर लंबे सेक्शन के निर्माण कार्य की तैयारियां चल रही हैं। परियोजना की नोटिस इनवाइटिंग टेंडर (एनआईटी) लगभग तैयार की जा चुकी है। हालांकि परियोजना को लेकर डीएमआरसी और नोएडा प्राधिकरण के बीच मेमोरेंडम ऑफ अंडरस्टेंडिंग (एमओयू) साइन बाकी है, लेकिन डीएमआरसी के मुताबिक यह औपचारिकता होती है। पहले ही सभी समझौते हो जाते हैं।
बनाई जाएगी तालमेल कमेटी
मेट्रो परियोजना का काम शुरू होने पर परेशानी आडे़ न आए, इसे लेकर भी तैयारियां शुरू कर दी गई हैं। डीएमआरसी और नोएडा प्राधिकरण मेट्रो के लिए एक तालमेल कमेटी का गठन करेंगे। जिसमें अन्य विभागों के अधिकारियों को भी शामिल किया जाएगा।

Is this a good time to buy property in India? What kind of property is a good bet? Let's try to find answers.

Why Mumbai is Delhi's poor cousin
Madhavi Rajadhyaksha, TNN | Feb 16, 2012, 04.47AM IST
MUMBAI: The country's financial capital gets step-motherly treatment compared to Delhi, said chief minister Prithviraj Chavan during his visit to TOI's headquarters in Mumbai on Tuesday, promising to seek Rs 1 lakh crore from the Centre to develop the city's infrastructure.
Though Mumbai is evidently in greater need, Delhi since 2005 has received 34% more funds under the Centre's flagship urban development programme. For projects from roads and flyovers to sewage and heritage conservation, Delhi received Rs 1,821 crore more that Mumbai under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM).

In an exclusive interview with Myiris.com, Ravi Saund , chief operating officer, CHD Developers, says “Real estate segment has become a lucrative investment option for NRIs.“
While the real estate prices in the world are sinking, the real estate investment in India is ringing. What factors NRIs should consider before investing in Indian real estate?
With the depreciating rupee, the Indian Real estate segment has become a lucrative investment option for NRI`s. There are several key aspects that a buyer should consider while making his investment decision. These aspects fundamentally remain the same for both residential and commercial projects. If the project has to be evaluated for investment I would lay down dimensions on which a buyer should think.

Metro extension to link Dilshad Garden with Ghaziabad bus terminal
NEW DELHI: A year after Delhi Metro ventured into Ghaziabad with the Anand Vihar-Vaishali corridor, it's preparing to start work on another alignment. Senior officials in Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) confirmed that the detailed project report on a new alignment from Dilshad Garden to New Bus Terminal along GT Road in Ghaziabad had been submitted to Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA). Work on the corridor is expected to start soon, said Kumar Keshav, director (projects), Delhi Metro.
The 9.41km corridor will start from Dilshad Garden and terminate at the bus stand located near the Mahamaya Sports Stadium. "The alignment, which was earlier to terminate at Mohan Nagar has been extended to cater to a larger section," said Keshav. According to Delhi Metro, the connection to Ghaziabad via Dilshad Garden will prove beneficial not only for Delhi, but also for Ghaziabad residents as it will provide an alternative to the current Anand Vihar-Vaishali line. "There are strong possibilities for extending the line beyond New Bus Terminal in the next stage, up to Raj Nagar on Hapur Road," said Keshav.
The alignment will have seven stations – at Shahid Nagar, Raj Bagh, Rajendra Nagar, Shyam Park, Mohan Nagar, Arthala and New Bus Stand. The average distance between the stations is 1.35km, said Keshav. "Discussions with the GDA have been very positive. The alignment will benefit more than 12 lakh people living in Ghaziabad," he said. Incidentally, in 2010 DMRC had proposed the extension of the Anand Vihar to Vaishali line up to Mohan Nagar. This would connect the proposed Mohan Nagar Metro station on the Dilshad Garden-New Bus Terminal corridor. Approximate length of this extension will be 8km. In the next stage of the corridor, Delhi Metro has proposed to extend the line further to Raj Nagar.
The detailed project report states that on completion of the proposed extension up to Raj Nagar in Ghaziabad in the next phase, the Delhi Metro corridor via Shahdara will become approximately 38km long – stretching between Rithala in the west and Raj Nagar in the east. Maintenance and stabling requirement of the corridor will be met from Shastri Park Depot located in the Yamuna Khadir, nearly 4km west of Shahdara station. Metro commuters from Ghaziabad will be able reach New Delhi Station, Connaught Place, AIIMS, IIT and Qutub Minar with one interchange at Kashmiri Gate station with this alignment as well.

F1 powers Noida as Gurgaon hit with perils of rapid, unplanned growth
Arati R Jerath and Prabhakar Sinha, TNN Nov 16, 2011, 12.06pm IST
The poor cousin from Mayaland never looked this close to eclipsing the Millennium City, which is now an urban sprawl with a creaking infrastructure. Rapid unplanned growth has been Gurgaon's bane, while Noida rides the twin advantages of better planning and competent trunk infrastructure.
The unveiling of the state of-the-art Formula One racing track in Greater Noida and the world-class Yamuna Expressway leading up to it have sent a frisson of concern coursing through Gurgaon on Delhi's southern border.
Suddenly, there's a buzz about the poor cousin from the east side. Almost overnight, the badlands of Mayawati Pradesh have transformed into a Shanghai miracle with a scale and quality of construction not seen before in India. And it's threatening to put swanky Gurgaon in the shade.

Lucknow is set to lose its political power as 3 new districts are set to gain all important power: Meerut (Harit Pradesh), Varanasi (Poorvanchal) and Jhansi (Bundelkhand) as plans unfold for trifurcation of Uttar Pradesh in 3 more states. The maximum power would flow to Meerut (Harit Pradesh) as it contributes about 72% of total income of undivided UP but gets allocation of only 18%. Presently, UP has the second largest economy ($400 billion based on PPP and $109 billion nominal) in India after Maharashtra, 72% of this would would take the new state economy sixth only behind Mah, AP, TN, Guj and, WB (StatesGDP-Link). While more details emerge, the upcoming Harit Pradesh would rise from ashes and would be ready to take on the best of the Indian states on each parameter of development and tourism (Agra Taj, Mathura, F1 and Yamuna Expressway are only a trailor- story abhi baki hai).
While Meerut had been in contention for the new capital for long, it is Noida/Greater Noida/ Yamuna Expressway Authority that would be the financial capital of this new state. Noida already hosts most of the Indian TV channel offices in Film City so marketting would not be a problem for the state. The state already has metro to Noida and Ghaziabad and soon Meerut would have a high speed train corridor. A large part of Harit Pradesh is already part of NCR (National Capital Region). Agra (Taj) and Mathura (temples) would also get their dues that they could not get from undivided UP.

New Gurgaon private metro to be IL&FS baby
DLF not investing completion by mid-2013
Dilasha Seth / New Delhi Apr 12, 2012, 00:29 IST
The rapid metro rail service for Gurgaon, conceived as a joint venture project of DLF and IL&FS, is set to become functional from mid-2013. It is to be fully funded by IL&FS, with DLF not investing, both companies have confirmed.
IL&FS is interested in establishing a privately-run metro model in cities through the country, besides extending the 6.1-km stretch being built in Gurgaon by 14-15 km. The project was launched in mid-2009 and was expected to be completed in 30 months, but got delayed due to state government interventions. The cost has risen from the initial projection of Rs 900 crore to Rs 1,088 crore. The current stretch would have six stations. It would connect Sikandarpur, DLF-2, Mall of India and DLF-3 in Gurgaon.
In the Special Purpose Vehicle formed for the Rapid Metro Rail Gurgaon (RMRG) project, the investment structure was 26 and 74 per cent for DLF and IL&FS, respectively. Till commercial operation begins, DLF will continue to hold 26 per cent equity in the project, said Sanjiv Rai, managing director of RMGL. After that, IL&FS would get all the shareholding. “DLF was initially to invest in the project. However, it did not. So, it is an IL&FS project, constructed and financed by this company,” said Rai.
Of the Rs 1,088 crore investment, 30 per cent is in the form of equity by IL&FS and the remaining 70 per cent is debt from eight public sector banks. IL&FS said it would get all the revenue from ticket sales; a share is to go to Haryana Urban Development Authority from the non-fare revenue. “For the first five years, the company would contribute five per cent of the advertisement revenue to Huda, while in every subsequent year for the next five years, it will be increased by one per cent till it reaches the 10 per cent figure,” said Rai.

Important Info: This website does not wish to promote this or any other projects. Recently a lot of complaints have been raised againt Wave Infra group related to their project Wave City NH-24. The key issues against the promotor company has been namely, 1) Non-allotment of plots to majority of orig applicants (year 2005) even after 7 years wait, 2) Unethical practices by changing the orig priority list by asking more money, 3) Slow pace of work since 2005, no road connectivity from NH-24 to site or completion of internal sector roads, no timebound site deveopment since 2005, 4) Non-transparency in the allotment of plots as premium location plots sold at high prices bypassing the orig applicants. Moreover orig applicants allotted remote location plots (Sec 15) after 7 years of wait, 5) Finally, there are many court cases against the land acquisition for the project and the company has not been forthcoming on the nature of land acquisitions and how much land they have in actual possession.

In this background, we request everyone to do due diligence while dealing with the company.

It was last year that at ncrhomes.com we noted that “Chadha group which is till date known for building wave cinema and centre stage mall in Noida is all geared up to be counted amongst the biggies of NCR like DLF, Unitech and JP. Watch this space.” Here is the link of that post.
Though it took another year for Wave Infra to start creating big waves into Indian real estate, but we have had this inkling for some time. While some of the biggies in Indian real estate are finding it difficult to carry their own weight, Wave Infra is emerging as a vibrant and dynamic group which seem to have all the firepower to be counted as the best in NCR. The cherry on the cake for the group seem to be their ever dependable customer service.Time would tell if Wave Infra could really DELIVER this dream successfully. Watch out for this space.

India Inc balks at Land Acquisition Bill
Agencies
Posted: Friday, Sep 23, 2011 at 0928 hrs IST
Mumbai: Unfinished car shells rusting in a deserted factory in India's West Bengal state lie testimony to flaws in a century-old land-acquisition law the government now wants to replace.
* Jobs, housing, cash to landowners made mandatory
* Costs, project delays to increase – Indian corporates react
* Bill to push up costs by 350 pct for big plots – analysts, cos
* Bill likely to be passed in December
Tata Motors was forced to abandon its Nano plant in 2008 after violent protests by villagers, who claimed they were forced off the land by the local government and paid inadequate compensation.
But companies say an overhaul of the old law envisaged to bring clarity to an often murky part of doing business in India goes too far in favour of rural landowners and will slow development, capacity expansion and economic growth.
The proposed new land bill means cost increases and project delays for developers, thanks to rules that will raise land values and compel them to provide new homes, jobs, monthly stipends and a cut of future profits to former landowners.
This just isn't going to work for buyers, said Rupen P. Patel, managing director of Patel Engineering , an infrastructure firm specialising in power and road projects.

डूंडाहेड़ा प्रस्तावित डंपिंग ग्राउंड :सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने नगर निगम, जीडीए और प्रदेश शासन के मुख्य सचिव से जवाबतलब
गाजियाबाद। डूंडाहेड़ा में प्रस्तावित डंपिंग ग्राउंड मामले में सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने नगर निगम, जीडीए और प्रदेश शासन के मुख्य सचिव से जवाबतलब किया है। अंसल एक्वापोलिस और क्रासिंग इंफ्रा लिमिटेड की ओर से दायर याचिका पर सुनवाई करते हुए सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने याचिकाकर्ताओं को भी हाईकोर्ट द्वारा निर्धारित जुर्माना राशि भरने के आदेश दिए। कोर्ट ने जुर्माना राशि भरने के बाद ही मामले की अगली सुनवाई करने की बात कही। कोर्ट ने याचिकाकर्ता को चार सप्ताह का समय दिया है।
क्रासिंग इंफा के वकील केविन गुलाटी ने बताया कि हाईकोर्ट द्वारा डंपिंग ग्राउंड निर्माण में देरी के लिए बिल्डर्स को एक-एक करोड़ रुपये भरने का आदेश दिया था। इसके खिलाफ अंसल और क्रासिंग ने सुप्रीम कोर्ट में याचिका दायर की थी। याचिकाकर्ताओं ने दलील दी कि डंपिंग ग्राउंड निर्माण के लिए जरूरी 45 एकड़ जमीन ही नहीं थी, तो इसका निर्माण कैसे होता। मामले की सुनवाई करते हुए जस्टिस बीएस चौहान और टीएस ठाकुर की पीठ ने याचिकाकर्ताओं की दलील से सहमति जताई। पीठ ने उपलब्ध 14 एकड़ जमीन को डंपिंग ग्राउंड निर्माण के लिए नाकाफी माना। पीठ ने कहा कि पर्याप्त जमीन की व्यवस्था के बिना नगर निगम डंपिंग ग्राउंड बनाने की प्रक्रिया नहीं शुरू कर सकता। इसके अलावा कोर्ट ने यह भी कहा कि एक बार जब जीडीए ने आवासीय कालोनी विकसित करने का लाइसेंस बिल्डरों को दे दिया तो सरकार के भू-उपयोग परिवर्तन के फैसले को हाईकोर्ट रद्द नहीं करता सकता। पीठ ने जीडीए, नगर निगम और मुख्य सचिव को नोटिस करते हुए याचिकाकर्ताओं को चार सप्ताह में जुर्माना राशि भरने के बाद कोर्ट आने के निर्देश दिए। क्रासिंग इंफ्रा ने अपनी धनराशि पहले ही जमा कर दी है। अंसल द्वारा निर्धारित एक करोड़ रुपये की राशि को जमा करने के बाद मामले की आगे सुनवाई होगी।

“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.” Mahatma Gandhi
It is truly very difficult to remain unmoved by happenings on street on corruption. The current events are of the magnitude and enormity that it happens only once in the timetime of a person, if one is lucky. Yes, as true Indians, we all have been immensely moved by Anna Hazare ji for his steely determination and commitment to the noble cause to make our society corruption-free. Here is a man who is trying to change the future for us and our children while he may not live long enough to enjoy a corruption-free India and nor does he have any child to pass on the benefits (though I truly wish him a long-long life). Here is a man who says that he is willing to give ultimate sacrifice for the cause. This movement will certainly reach its destination because going by the track record of Anna ji, whatever cause this Gandhian has chosen has reached to ultimate destination. When the common people are oppressed beyond a torture point, they take on street and win, as narrated by Gandhiji: “First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”
