this is the complete project
The DDA has started three such projects in Kalkaji Extension, Jailorwala Bagh and Kathputli Colony. Under Kalkaji Extension Project, in-situ rehabilitation of three slum clusters, namely, landless camps, Navjeevan camps and Jawahar camps located at Kalkaji are being done in a phased manner. In this, under the first phase, 3024 EWS flats have been constructed on the vacant commercial center site nearby.
According to the information, the slum area in the landless camp will be vacated by rehabilitating the beneficiaries of the landless camp in the newly constructed EWS flats. Thereafter, the vacant space in the second phase will be used for rehabilitation of Navjeevan Camp and Jawahar Camp.
Flats are equipped with all facilities
Significantly, the first phase of this project has been completed and 3024 flats are ready to be built. According to the information, the construction of these flats has been done at a cost of about Rs 345 crore and they are equipped with all the best facilities, including vitrified floor tiles, finishing with ceramic tiles. In this, Udaipur’s green marble counter has been used in the kitchen.
Public facilities like community park, electric sub-station, sewage treatment plant, water pipeline, lift, etc. are available in this project. The allotment of flats through this project will provide a sense of ownership as well as security to the people.
