New Delhi, June 21 (IANS) The Delhi government has announced plans to create a staggering 600,000 job opportunities by embarking on an ambitious project to redevelop non-conforming industrial areas.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal expressed his determination to transform all 26 non-conforming industrial areas into recognized conforming industrial areas through a comprehensive redevelopment plan.
During a high-level meeting held on Wednesday, Kejriwal stated that the redevelopment of these non-conforming industrial areas was crucial for the growth and progress of Delhi's industrial sector.
"Once the redevelopment is complete, these areas will be accorded the coveted Conforming Area status, providing a conducive environment for businesses to thrive. Recognizing the financial burden associated with formulating the layout for these areas, the Delhi Government has taken a proactive step by shouldering 90 per cent of the costs, with only 10 per cent of the expenses being borne by the industries," Kejriwal said.
The Delhi Government has said that it is firmly committed to the revitalization of Delhi's industrial landscape, fostering economic growth, and generating employment opportunities.
During the review meeting, officials from the Department of Industries explained that, as per Delhi's Master Plan, the demarcation of land for residential, commercial, and industrial use is the responsibility of the Delhi Development Authority (DDA).
However, when the expansion of residential, commercial, and industrial activities took place in Delhi, the DDA could not keep up with the pace of development.
As a result, unauthorized colonies began to emerge due to the unavailability of residential colonies in Delhi. The land use in Delhi started to deviate from the Master Plan for other purposes. Industrial clusters were not created in a timely manner by the DDA, leading to the emergence of illegal or non-conforming industrial areas.
Currently, more than 70 per cent of the land is being used for industrial activities, known as non-conforming industrial areas.
He said that both he and President Sisi closely observed the adverse effects on healthcare infrastructure and global supply chains during the Covid pandemic. Modi further elaborated that "there is also immense potential for enhancing security and defence cooperation between us".
The court listed the matter for the next hearing on January 27. On January 21, the Patiala House Court extended Mishra's judicial custody by 14 days. In a recent development, Air India said that the crew made a judgement call to record the matter as a non-reportable in-flight incident for many reasons.
Chief Minister Mann vowed to take Punjab to new heights, and added that the government is committed to carve out an egalitarian society which the great martyrs and national leaders had envisioned. Meanwhile, the Chief Minister announced that in order to solve the traffic problem of Bathinda city, an ultramodern bus stand will be constructed on the outskirts of the city.
As per preliminary investigations, the motive behind the murders, a senior citizen couple, their daughter, son-in-law and three grandchildren, is believed to be a family feud arising out of certain superstitions.
The highway is the lifeline of the Kashmir Valley and the main road link connecting Kashmir with the rest of the country. Kashmir-bound trucks laden with essential supplies and other vehicles pass through the highway. Also, fruit-carrying trucks from Kashmir head for rest of the country through this road.
Punjab has also been regularly featuring in the tableau parade showcasing the critical importance of this border state with its rich history, colourful and vibrant culture and pivotal point for defining events which shaped the history of the great nation.
