Illegal subdivision of shops

Just to give example, shops in Madhuvan and Preet Vihar (new delhi 110092) markets have been subdivided.
Are these with approval of MCD or these are illegal constructions?
Why police and MCD as well as politicians are sleeping.
Citizens need answers.
Because...such subdivisions are common in every pocket of Delhi.

We park where ever we want

Recently Metro has built upfoot path from Madhuvan chowk to Karkri Mod along south side of Vikas Marg. The cars climb the foot path as at couple of spots near Nirman Vihar, Malba has been dumped to make a ramp.
Go from Nirman Vihar towards Madhuvan Chowk and on the side of Nirman Vihar, You will see foot path blocked by cars. Even on road below railway station, half the carriage way is blocked by parked cars, causing immense jams.
Traffic staff just at less than 50 yards do nothing to challan or tow away.
Please tell what is the solution.
Is there any solution or we have to live with it.

15 days to pay tax : MCD

New Delhi : Illegal constructions are once again under the hammer of MCD. The civic body has issued public notices asking asking people running commercial & professional establishments from residential colonies to pay annual mixed use charges, one - time parking charges and additional Floor Area Ratio FAR charges ( in case of basements) and conversion charges within 15 days. The officials said if someone fails to deposit the required charges in the stipulated time, heavy penalty amounting to 10 times the normal fee will be charged.

Monorail - the next option for Delhi ?

The Prestigious Delhi Metro is so over crowded now, that people have started comparing it with Blue line buses. The exception is that you can reach in time if you use Delhi Metro & ofcourse the air conditioned atmosphere. Just try it once during peak hours and imagine what will happen, when NCR is thoroughly connected by Metro.

The Delhi Govt. must give a serious thought to the Monorail also, as it is comparatively cheaper than Metro, as well, it can take the sharp turns & reach even those areas, which are not possible through Metro.

Improvement in Bus Service for the Commuters of Hari Nagar

URGENT PLEASE
Reminder 1st : January 25, 2010

The Chairman/Managing Director
Delhi Transport Corporation
Delhi Parivahnalaya, IP Estate
NEW DELHI-110002

Sub. : Improvement in Bus Service for the Commuters of Hari Nagar

Dear Sir,

A very large number of residents of G Block, Shiv Nagar, Virender Nagar, Asha Park, Usha Park, Fateh Nagar, Pratap Nagar, Delhi Govt. flats at Tihar Jail Complex, BF block and many blocks of DDA flats, are being denied direct bus service to famous destinations like Gurudwara Bangla Sahib, Hanuman Mandir, RML, CP, ITO, Laxmibai Nagar, Mayur Vihar, Anand Vihar Bus Terminus and New/Old Delhi Railway Stations.

There used to be a few routes originating from Hari Nagar Depots, which have been discontinued, and other routes have not replaced these routes. There are three DTC depots at Hari Nagar but not a single route originates from this very important place. Every day the residents of above mentioned colonies learn about low floor buses being deployed on many routes in West Delhi but there is no effort as yet to introduce these low floor buses on routes covering these colonies.

In the past, the ACP, Traffic(West) had pointed to your office as also to Delhi Govt’s Transport Department about the prevailing congestion at Hari Nagar Clock Tower from where route numbers 73 and 108 are originating. To overcome this problem, it was also suggested that both these routes could be extended to Hari Nagar Depots because of sufficient parking place in front of the three bus depots. But this proposal is yet to see light of the day. In the recent past, some low floor buses have been deployed on route 73 but residents of our areas have to first reach this place from their respective colonies to avail themselves of this service because the distance is not walkable.

You are requested to kindly depute your experts to verify the above stated facts and report back to you the dire need for extension of routes 73 and 108 and also to introduce new routes from Hari Nagar Depots for important destinations.

Thanking you and hoping to have immediate action on residents’ grievances,

Yours truly,
TPS OBEROI,
Vice-President
