A demonstration was held on last Friday (30th of September) at Parliament Street, near Jantar Mantar by Federation of Housing Societies and Developers under the banner of Delhi Dehat Vikas Munch. Protesters urged LG and Delhi Govt to expedite the execution of Land Pooling Policy. BJP’s MP, Dr Udit Raj, lend his support to the protesters.
The policy was notified in Sep, 2013 and the guidelines for operationalisation of it were approved by the Urban Development Ministry on May 26, 2015 with five amendments, following which the then DDA Vice-Chairman, Balvinder Kumar, had said, “The ball is in the Delhi government’s court”.
The actual implementation of the policy hinges on the state government’s decision on declaring 95 villages as development areas and 89 of them as urban villages. The housing authority had earlier requested to it to issue a notification in this regard.
Delhi govt had demanded 12-15% from the pooled land for carrying out development projects. DDA, on the other hand, after considering the Delhi govt’s demand, had found it infeasible to be met.
Pooling Policy is based on public-private partnership model and seeks to make landowners partners in the development of the zones. It is divided into two categories — (I) for land measuring 50 acres and above, and (II) for 5 acres to less than 50 acres In the first category, the developer entity will have around 60 per cent share, while DDA will retain 40 per cent. In the second category, DDA will retain 52 per cent while rest will go to developer entity.
