Ahead of the MCD polls, the BJP on Wednesday said that people would be allowed more construction on a plot of land under the Master Plan of 2041.
Addressing a press conference, Union Housing Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said that a near doubling of the floor area ratio (FAR) will help in tackling the rising population of Delhi.
In Master Plan 2041 that's to be approved now, a "regeneration FAR" — applicable to demolishing and rebuilding — has been planned, to range from 260 to 340. "Larger the plot size, higher the FAR," said the minister, according to a report by NDTV.
Puri also underlined the various development projects that were headed by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) which is under the Central government.
Puri's address comes at a time when the Congress on Wednesday released the manifesto for Municipal Corporation of Delhi polls (MCD elections) and promised RO water purifiers to the poor and day-boarding at MCD-run schools.
The civic polls, spanning 250 wards, are due on December 4. The votes will be counted on December 7.
