Express News Service | New Delhi | August 21, 2014 2:03 am

The Union Ministry of Urban Development (UD) has proposed the construction of five critical roads to decongest Delhi and improve connectivity within the National Capital Region.

One of the five roads proposed is the extension of Barapullah phase-III. It will run from East Delhi to the airport, connecting the Dwarka Expressway.

Another of the “five critical roads” proposed is Urban Extension Road-II, which will connect North Delhi with the airport and Gurgaon.

New (South) Gurgaon: new growth centre

Gurgaon-now-looks-to-its-periphery

Gurgaon realty has always been centred on the Golf Course road and the M-G road. The attraction offered by the former is the mixed development of high specifications both in the residential and commercial segment while the latter has been popular on account of the malls and also for its connectivity to the NH-8.

With saturation setting in along these locations, developers have now focussed their attention on the Golf Course Extension Road and the Northern Peripheral Road. In early 2008, prices were in the range of Rs 3,000 a square foot. That has risen since then and today, projects command a price of Rs 6,000 and above per sq ft.

New Faridabad taking big strides

फरीदाबादः कनेक्टिविटी ने बढ़ाई रफ्तार

संतोष कुमार | सौजन्‍य: इंडिया टुडे | फरीदाबाद, 20 जनवरी 2012 | अपडेटेड: 13:35 IST

फरीदाबाद ऐसा शहर है जो राष्ट्रीय राजधानी क्षेत्र (एनसीआर) के सबसे नजदीक होकर भी नजरअंदाज रहा. लेकिन दिल्ली सीमा पर बदरपुर फ्लाईओवर, फरीदाबाद-गुड़गांव रोड से मिली कनेक्टिविटी और नोएडा के भूमि अधिग्रहण विवादों ने इस शहर की तरफ लोगों का ध्यान तेजी से खींचा है.

इस आकर्षण ने शहर के भीतर ही एक नया शहर बसा दिया है, जिसे गैर-आधिकारिक तौर पर ग्रेटर फरीदाबाद के नाम से पुकारा जाने लगा है.

टाउनशिप बना रही बीपीटीपी के वरिष्ठ उपाध्यक्ष (परियोजना) दिनेश चंद्र हारण और वार्ड 22 से पार्षद अजय बैंसला एक सुर में कहते हैं, ''नोएडा-गुड़गांव के बाद हमारी (फरीदाबाद की) बारी है.''

पिछले साल भर में ग्रेटर फरीदाबाद की तस्वीर के साथ आसपास के किसानों की तकदीर भी बदल गई है. उनकी खेती की जमीन पर गगनचुंबी इमारतों से लेकर डुप्लेक्स, स्कूल, कॉलेज और कई व्यावसायिक ठिकाने बनकर तैयार हैं और उनके निजी घर भी आलीशान महल की शक्ल ले चुके हैं.

DMRC not game for route change

HT Correspondent, Hindustan Times
Gurgaon, August 13, 2012

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has ruled out any change in the route plan of the proposed high-speed Metro line connecting Iffco Chowk in Gurgaon and IGI Airport. The DMRC has also no plans to add new stations on the line.

The DMRC will soon submit the revised detailed

project report (DPR) to the Haryana government, said a senior DMRC official.

"We are in the last stages of finalising the DPR and hopefully submitting it to the state government in a week or two," he added.

It's a serious blow to Old Gurgaon residents who have been demanding a change in the proposed alignment.

"We will launch an agitation if the government fail to address our demand," said Ashok Taneja, a resident of old Gurgaon.

On February 3 this year, the DMRC had submitted the project report of the 12-km long high-speed Metro route with three metro stations in between IGI Airport and Iffco Chowk to the state government.

Under pressure from Old Gurgaon residents, the district officials raised some reservations to the project, saying the proposed link would serve no purpose to a large number of people living in the old city, or in the west side of the expressway.

The district officials suggested some changes: Divert the proposed route from Palam Vihar towards Rajiv Chowk along Atul Kataria and Sheetla Mata roads. Old Gurgaon residents had given representations to Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda twice.

The DMRC said the Haryana government should plan other routes to cater to the needs of Old Gurgaon residents.

Why India may see several ‘little Singapore’ smart cities in 5 years

18 Aug 2014

The government has already initiated concrete steps to implement Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s promise of building 100 ‘smart cities’ – eco-friendly cities which use innovative Information and Communication Technology (ICT) for efficient delivery of public services and infrastructure.

PM Modi’s pet idea of building 100 ‘smart cities’ would need massive financial resources and technological prowess. For both these prerequisites, India will have to look up to foreign countries. Many countries have expressed their interest towards this endeavour of the new Indian government.

The Modi government has allocated Rs 7,060 crore (a little over $1.1 billion) in its maiden union budget to kickstart the smart cities project.

Singapore has emerged as a major foreign player in the Indian scheme of things in this context.

The government plans to deliver three smart cities by 2019, all of which will be part of the larger project called Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC). These smart cities, scheduled to be completed by 2019, are Dholera, Shendra-Bidkin and Global City.
