Sunday, 26 June 2022 | Staff Reporter | New Delhi

In another review meeting, Lt Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena on Saturday instructed the DDA and NBCC to complete Delhi's first transit-oriented development (TOD) project at Karkardooma before scheduled deadline.

According to a statement issued by the Raj Niwas, he had gone to take stock of the status and progress of work at the site of the project in east Delhi.

 The Lt Governor issued specific directions to the DDA and NBCC to complete the project "before the scheduled deadline, stick to uncompromising structural safety and take all prospective steps to fully integrate the upcoming complex with the neighbourhood and surroundings," it said.

Work on this project spread over 25.47 ha with minimum 30 per cent green area, had started in September 2021 and is expected to be fully completed in September 2026, it said.

This ambitious project that will change the skyline of the city and bring about unprecedented regeneration in east Delhi area had started to fructify after much delay, caused due to the COVID-19 pandemic-induced lockdowns, pollution-related construction bans and regulatory clearances, the statement said.
