Don't you want to discuss MPD2021 & MPD2041 ?

MPD2041 Public Hearing - Open letter to Hon'ble LG & CM for a meeting !

30th October 2021

Respected LG Saab,

Respected CM Saab,

May we request you to please call a meeting with the RWA Federations, Market Associations & the Activists of the city, to listen to the Suggestions / Objections over the MPD2041.

By the Grace of God, Covid Antibodies have been found in 97% of Delhi residents & such a meeting can now be called to discuss the outcome & achievements of MPD2021 as well the Expectations from MPD2041, though still under COVID protocol.

We are sorry to say that even on the completion of the MPD2021 time period, the Yamuna river still gets 70% of pollutants from Delhi. 45% of the untreated sewage still enters Yamuna & 47% of the potable drinking water is still lost by theft or leakages.

We are the most Polluted Capital, ranking high on Noise Pollution, & with no check on the number of vehicles to check vehicular pollution. We have no suitable Parking facilities & no check on Encroachments & Unauthorised constructions.

The 2nd wave of COVID19 clearly exhibited the status of health facilities in the city, while the kids & the grown-up kids are unable to get a seat in Nursery & DU, easily.

There are so many issues to be discussed such as Pollution, Housing, Drainage, Sewage, Waterlogging, Drinking water, Mobile Tower Radiation, Mixed Land Use, Transport, Mobility, Solid Waste, Garbage Mountains, Power infrastructure, Pedestrian safety, Right to way, Seismic vulnerability, Night Economy, E-waste, Right to speak as well as the Right to be heard.

Willing to stand together with Delhi Government & Administration for making a better Delhi by the end of 2041. Please give us time for a meeting to discuss all the issues. Please revert at the earliest.

With best regards,

B S Vohra, Convener, RWA Bhagidari, President, East Delhi RWAs Joint Front

Rajiv Kakria, Convener, Save Our City,

Participants ‘unhappy’ with online hearing on MPD-2041

 

‘Not invited’

Some members of residents welfare associations (RWAs) said they were not invited to the hearing “despite multiple requests”. B.S. Vohra, president of East Delhi RWA, said while he had “managed to attend” the previous hearing on October 25, he received no communication for Wednesday’s meeting. “I had also reached out to the DDA on Twitter in order to attend the meeting, and I was assured that it will be resolved soon, but nothing happened. They (DDA) know that we have good points to raise and maybe they don’t want to discuss the issues with us. Even in the previous meeting, I was given only two minutes to speak,” he said, adding that he had also sent a “detailed email” to the DDA authorities in which he had mentioned his points.

Rajiv Kakria, the convener of the Save Our City campaign, said he was not invited to the hearings despite several requests and objected to the process being conducted online. “It should be a physical hearing. Save Our City is a collective of RWAs, NGOs, and activists with 175 signatories. We have clearly mentioned that each signatory must be invited. There has been no communication from the DDA despite acknowledging that they have read my petitions.”

DDA extends deadline to submit comments on Delhi’s 2041 Master Plan by a month

"BS Vohra, president of East Delhi RWA front, said, “We have submitted our suggestions and objections, but we welcome the decision to extend the deadline. We want DDA to put in public domain details of what all provisions of MPD-2021 were actually implemented. People have a right to know if these plans really work or not. These details will only help us in framing our comments.”

Delhi Master Plan: RWAs seek timeline for cleaning Yamuna, check on unauthorised construction

The resident welfare associations demanded a definite timeline for cleaning the Yamuna, effective measures to check unauthorized constructions and preservation of South Delhi Aravalli ridge during a webinar conducted by the Delhi Development Authority to seek people’s suggestions on the Master Plan-2041.

195 participants attended the webinar on Thursday during which suggestions and objections were invited on the environment, economy, culture, heritage, and public spaces.

East Delhi Residents’ Welfare Association Joint Federation president BS Vohra said there are several announcements that have been made over time regarding the cleaning of the Yamuna. “DDA is saying in its master plan that it is a blue asset which will be revived. I can see the Yamuna as a black asset at present due to drain water and hazardous wastes being released into it. DDA should give us a definite timeline regarding when it plans to clean the river,” he said.
