    TOWN PLANNING-DELHI

    SUBMITTED BY-

    HISTORY
    1807

    • It highlights the hierarchy of settlements,


    from small to larger villages. The map marks
    out Shahajahanabad, Tughlaqabad, Mooralee
    and the Qutab Minar complex and is
    attributed to British surveyor FS White.
    1857

    • In 1857 Delhi was under British rule, though,


    the last in the line of Mughal emperors'
    Bahadur Shah Zafar still lived at the Red Fort.
    In 1857 a sepoy mutiny against the East India
    Company in Meerut developed into a full
    blown pan Indian resistance to the British
    rule. Delhi and its emperor, whose authority
    the British did not accept, became a symbol
    of the first Indian revolt.
    PRE 1930

    • The British built a railway line and


    demolished parts of the Red Fort to
    prevent future mutinies. The maps
    and sketches of the city post-1857
    reflect the New Delhi that the British
    planned to set up.
    1945

    • A 1945 map in the Indian archives also


    shows the impact of World War II and
    where temporary buildings were erected
    for military purposes in Delhi. Apart from
    its importance as a military document,
    the map is insightful from an urban
    planning perspective. It is interesting to
    note that the map confirms that Lodi
    Colony had already been planned by this
    time as part of the Imperial Capital.
    1947-1955

    • Right after independence, there was


    an explosion of settlements in Delhi
    owing to the influx of refugees from
    all social strata into Delhi which gave
    birth to various inconsistently built
    colonies. One of the maps created
    after independence, includes many of
    these refugee colonies – Patel Nagar,
    Lajpat Nagar and Nizamuddin.
    NCR REGION

    After 1985, NCR region started to develop.


    According to Master Plan for Delhi -2021, notified on 07.02.07 National Capital Territory of Delhi has been divided into 15 planning
    zones. Out of these, 8 Zones (A to H) cover existing Urban Area as shown in the Land Use Plan. Zone ‘O’ covers River Yamuna and the
    remaining 6 zones (Zone J to P) are part of Urbanisable Area.

    The Zone ‘L’ covers an area of 21933 Ha. which is bounded by the following:

    Delhi Rohtak Railway line in North


    Existing H T line and Zone ‘K ’ mainly comprising of Dwarka Sub- City , in East
    The National Capital Territory of Delhi boundary on its Southern and Western sides.
    The basic objectives of Zonal Plan for Planning of Zone ‘L’ are:
    • To provide adequate shelter along with physical & social infrastructure for assigned population.
    • To provide work centers.
    • Conservation of environment
    • Public, Private and Community participation to remove bottleneck and delay in the assembly of land through
    mix of land acquisition and new assembly techniques involving public and private sector (land owner).
    • Redevelopment of existing built up area, regularization of existing unauthorised colonies as per the policy of the
    Government with the objectives to provide basic infrastructure and to improve the environment by development
    of proper road width, parking facilities, community facilities.
    • Integration of transport network with the other parts of the city.

    CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ZONE


    The zone is the largest of 15 zones of Delhi and is predominantly rural in character. Najafgarh is the only census town in
    the Zone. Most of the area of Zone ‘L’ forms part of the Najafgarh drainage basin. The topography of the zone depicts
    gentle slope from the North to South. The Najafgarh drain originates from Najafgarh Jheel in the South west Delhi -
    Haryana border and traverse a length of about 51 Km before meeting in River Yamuna. Inflow of water into this drain is
    mainly from the following sources:
    • Northern flood water through out fall drain No. 8
    • Shahibi water through out fall drain No. 8
    • Southern water spill over through Manesar and Gurgaon nallahs that joins the Jheel,
    • Run off from Najafgarh block through major channels such as Palam Mungeshpur drains and arteries of smaller
    drains, out falling up-stream of Kakrola
    URDPFI STANDARDS

    35-40

    4-5

    12-14

    14-16

    20-25

    15-18
    CONCLUSION

    • THE RECREATIONAL AND TRANSPORT SECTOR IS WAY TOO LESS


    ACCORDING TO THE URDPFI STANDARDS.
    • HOWEVER RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL ARE UPTO THE LIMIT AND
    CANNOT EXCEED FURTHER.
    • I FEEL RECREATIONAL AREA CAN BE DEVELOPED MORE DUE TO THE
    HIKE IN POPULATION.
