PART I: EVOLUTION OF DELHI

DELHI TILL SHAHJAHANABAD
The first city to have been established was Indraprastha, built by the Pandavas during the age of the
Mahabharata. Even though the site has been identified as the one where Purana Qila is located, no such
archeological evidence is available.The earliest remains, dating back to the 8th century are that of LAL
KOT built by Anangpal II of the Tomar Dynasty of Rajasthan. This is situated in present day Mehrauli.
Earlier Anangpal I built a fortification around a village and the Surajkund reservoir.The ruins of QILA RAI
PITHORA built by Prithviraj Chauhan in 1108 can be seen beyond the area of Lal Kot.
MEHRAULI remained an important city for the Asian Turks who later invaded India and established the
Delhi Sultanate in the subcontinent under the leadership of Qutub-ud-din Aibak, a slave and a general in
the army of Mohammad Ghori. He started building the famous Qutub Minar, which was completed after
his death by his successor Illtutmish.
To increase defence against continuous Mongol invasions Allaudin Khilji, the second ruler of the
succeeding Khilji dynasty, built the fortification of SIRI thereby founding a new capital city in 1303.
Ghiyas-ud-din Tughlaq, founder of the Tughlaq dynasty, also took precautions against Mongol invasion
and founded the fortified city of TUGHLAQABAD, further south of Siri.
In 1325, Mohammad Tughlaq moved back to the city of Siri, but to accommodate the growing population,
he fortified the area between Qila Rai Pithora and Siri to form JAHAPANAH, parts of which can be seen
in Begumpur and Jahanpanah Forest near Greater Kailash II
With the Mongol threat receding, Firoz Shah Tughlaq built the city of FIROZABAD in 1354, closer to the
river. The remains of Firoz Shah Kotla survive as evidence of this city.
Before the downfall of the Delhi Sultanate, the Sayyids and Lodis, whose territories were much reduced,
concentrated more on building elaborate mausoleums and gardens rather than grand fortified cities. In
the 16th century, with the invasion of Babur, Mughal rule was established in India.

In 1533, Humayun the second Mughal emperor, founded the city of DINPANNAH to the north of
Nizamuddin which is believed to be the site of Indraprastha. Interrupting his rule, Sher Shah Suri built
SHERGARH around 1538 by adding to the existing city.
After a brief shift of the capital to Agra in 1639, Shah Jahan, the fifth Mughal Emperor returned to Delhi to
establish his capital, thereby laying the foundations for the grand city of SHAHJAHANABAD (present
day Old Delhi). It was built north of all the existing cities of Delhi, but much closer to the river.
After the British Siege of Delhi in 1857, the city fell into the hands of new rulers, who ruled from Calcutta
before shifting their capital to Delhi in 1911. However, during this period Delhi was still used for holding
imperial ceremonies and experienced many physical, spatial and cultural changes. In the durbar of 1911,
it was announced that Delhi would be the new imperial capital. Construction of New Delhi began in 1912,
and it was inaugurated in 1931.

Availability of high lands near river and natural protection by mountain ranges made this site suitable for
new development. Existing features at the site were the Kalan Masjid (1387, Feroz Shah) and Salimgarh
Fort (1546, Salim Shah Suri).
An 8 km long mud wall was built. The construction of the Red Fort began in 1639 and was completed in
1648. By 1650 the wall was fortified.

In 1650 Nawab Fatehpuri Begum, one of Shah Jahan’s wives, commissioned the construction of
Fatehpuri Masjid, as a mosque for the poor. Hauz Qasi was built as a reservoir for the city.
From 1644 to 1658 Jama Masjid, the grand mosque for royalty, was built. It was connected to the fort by
a short but important street that was mainly used for imperial processions.

Chandni Chowk was a tree-lined avenue with shops, residences and public amenities such as a
kotwali, mosques and caravan sarais, located along it. A central water canal flowed through the
centre.
Present day Phawara Chowk (1870s) became a prominent square. Faiz Bazaar was another important
commercial street and Daryaganj was a harbour for ships carrying goods.

Connections to the fort, masjid and the gates became commercial streets, such as Dariba Kalan (gold,
silver), Kinari Bazaar (gilt, sequins), Khari Baoli (spice), Katra Neel (fabrics) etc.
The areas within, developed organically into katras (alleys of shops and houses) and kunchas (houses
arranged around courts), divided according to the occupation of the residents.

Gurudwara Sisganj was built in 1783 by Baghel Singh to commemorate the site of the martyrdom of the
ninth Sikh guru, Guru Tegh Bahadur. Sunehri Masjid was built for noblemen and merchants.
Near Ajmeri Gate is the tomb of Ghazi-ud-Din Khan, one of Aurangzeb’s noblemen. Attached was a
madrasa and between 1825 to 1842 it housed the famous Delhi College. Today, it is the Anglo Arabic
School.

Chandni Chowk and Faiz Bazaar bifurcated the city into 3 distinct parts. Organic growth of residential
areas to the south Planned colony of Daryaganj Royal residences to the north.
By 1857 the city had grown into a self-sufficient urban hub of culture and commerce with issues of
overcrowding and neglect.

Evolution of Delhi from 1857-1911
During this period, Delhi’s population grew exponentially and its physical environment laid down long
lasting changes and stimuli for future development. Shahjahanabad was conquered by the British in 1757
after repeated battles with the Mughals, Nawab of Bengal, Afgans and The Marathas. With the demise of
Aurangzeb, the Mughal empire saw a conclusive end.
The British consolidated their position by gradually forming economic systems and engaging in trade. The
capital was Calcutta. Shahjahanabad was fully developed with its own markets neatly connected with
trade routes to Agra, Karnal etc. The routes were dotted with scattered settlements, mosques and sarai’s.
Dariyaganj was developed as a dock like market place, ferrying goods to Shahdara across the Yamuna.
In 1857, the munity shook the British establishment at Shahjahanabad. Shahjahanabad was attacked,
and hundreds of Britishers including women and children were killed. The British chose to move out of the
walled city and established Civil lines for the civilians to the North. Cantonment was across the ridge,
occupied with the armed forces. Many buildings in Dariyaganj were raised to make garrison buildings. A
memorial in the memory of the mutiny was built at the ridge.
The more significant repercussion of the mutiny came in the form of increased and focused establishment
of the British governance. Many political, religious and social institutions such as churches, theological
societies, hospitals, Christian schools and colleges were formed from then on till 1947.
The trade was stimulated with building of railway line to Kolkata. Railway was already present in Bombay
and Kolkata at the time. A part of the wall of old city was broken to route the railway. The steel bridge
called ‘lohe ka pul’ across the Yamuna was built. Old Delhi railway station became functional in 1863.
For the fist time, markets were stablished outside the walled city, due to growth in population, paucity of
space and change in political atmosphere. Sadar Bazar and Paharganj grew to become fully formed
markets. Sabji Mandi grew in scale.
With plague and unsanitary conditions in Kolkata and the growing importance of Delhi as emerging
central trade centre, the discussions of moving the capital to Delhi began. The coronation of King George
was planned to the north of the city. The city’s population grew such that new colonies had to be formed.

Some population from inside the walled city was resettled in parts of Karl Bagh due to epidemics. Thus,
began the westward growth of the city.
When the capital moved to Delhi, government employees from Kolkata settled in colonies like Timarpur.
Railway colonies were built along the railway line. New colonies were established to house population
occupying the new capital.

Lutyens Delhi
Lutyens capital city is one of its kind in the world and India is fortunate to have this masterly architectural
urban design composition in Delhi, its national capital. The many layered history of Delhi witnessed many
cities, popularly referred to as the ‘seven cities of Delhi’. The contemporary eighth city is Lutyens New
Delhi. The grand tree lined avenues and buildings of New Delhi, bearing a unique character, have created
an ambience of great charm and a unique aesthetic in urban art, with no parallel and admired even today
by one and all.
Over the years, with the advent of time, many socio-political and economic changes have come about
and New Delhi has transformed. Today, it stands to represent the country as a symbol of an independent
democracy. The physical spatial envelope has undergone many changes from time to time, to suit
evolving situations. After 100 years, however, much of the grandeur of Lutyens creation still remains. It
reminds us of the bygone days of colonial rule and our struggle to shake off the yoke of foreign power.
Lutyens New Delhi today stands as a reminder of India’s freedom struggle. Therefore, Lutyens Delhi
needs to be conserved as much as it needs to be adapted to the changing modern times, for change is
the law of life.
EVOLUTION OF LUTYENS, DELHI
In order to understand significance of Lutyens, Delhi . We analyzed three morphological layers; a layer
before 1908, factors that led to selection of particular site for new capital and in the conclusion we
observed how the contemporary planning concepts of Lutyens Delhi became the model for planning of
new colonies in Delhi.
The exercise started first by analyzing what factors led to emergence of new capital, and at a particular
place.The study went deep by identifying the physical aspects of Delhi, which were present before and
after new capital through maps of Delhi.It was observed that areas like paharjang ,karolbagh, civil lines
were growing at full pace .The growing population inside walled city of Shahjahanaabad led to formation
of area outside the wall. The advent of East India Company to Delhi started to change demographics. In

the great mutiny of 1865 the walled city was damaged and death of scores of people occurred. After 1865
the British army first residence the walled city then started setting in civil lines area around the Metcalfe
house. Due to political outburst in Calcutta during Bengal partition it was proposed to shift the capital to
Delhi and show Imperialistic grandeur to the world. In 1911 during the coronation it was decided finally to
shift the imperialistic capital to Delhi.
Initially the coronation site was selected for laying the new city ,but after the realizing the low lying nature
of site it was suggested by Lord Harding to select the raised area towards the south of Delhi. The area
south to the Shajahanabad and behind the ridge was finally selected to lay foundation of new capital. The
plan of new capital was inspired from city plan of Washington DC. It was incorporated the ideas of
Garden cities to the fact it was planned with adequate open green space. In 1920 most of the building
were completed. The housing typology see in Lutyens bunglow zone is entirely differently then what
existed in the past. After studying the Lutyens Delhi we observed how the planning acted as model for
development of new colonies like Lajpat nagar , Laxmi bai nagar,Patel nagar.

DELHI:1962 TO 1981
The MPD-62 set out the broad vision for the development of Delhi and, with a view to realizing the
development plan underlying this vision, a scheme of Large Scale Acquisition and Development of Land
was also formulated. The aim of the latter was to ensure that the spatial pattern of development, and
use of land, could conform to the development plan, and infrastructure and services could be laid out to
match the same.
The need for addressing the problems of Delhi by adopting regional approach had drawn the attention
of the planners in 1959 itself, when in the context of influx of huge refugee population and increasing
commercial and industrial activities, it was felt that Delhi should be developed on the basis of a Master
Plan
The Master Plan of 1962 had recommended a statutory body for the NCR and finally the National Capital
Region Planning Board (NCRPB) was set up as a. statutory body in 1985 and the first statutory Regional
Plan-2001 was given a formal shape.
Population explosion in and around Delhi has not mainly been due to natural growth, in fact natural
growth has shown downward tendency. In addition to the influx of huge refugee population
immediately after partition, during 1961 to 71, 5.3 lacs people had migrated to Delhi; but in the next
decade 1971-81 this figure went up to 12.3 lacs; while decadal migration figure between 1981-91 is
estimated at 20 lakh.

NCR regional plan (1985)
The National Capital Region Planning Board (NCRPB),
constituted in 1985 under the provisions of NCRPB Act,
1985, is a statutory body functioning under the Ministry of
Urban Development, Government of India
The Region (as in the RP-2021 for NCR notified in 2005)
consists of eight districts of Haryana, five districts of UP and
one district of Rajasthan apart from NCT-Delhi.
Regional Plan (RP)-2021 aims "to promote growth and Maps 6| Source:Maps of Delhi
balanced development of the National Capital Region" as per
Section 10, Sub-section (2) of the Act, 1985.This aim is sought to be achieved through:
i) Providing suitable economic base for future growth by identification and development of regional
settlements capable of absorbing the economic development impulse of NCR Delhi.
ii) To provide efficient and economic rail and road based transportation networks (including mass
transport systems) well integrated with the land use patterns, to support balanced regional development
in such identified settlements.
iii) To minimise the adverse environmental impact that may occur in the process of development of the
National Capital Region.
iv) To develop selected urban settlements with urban infrastructural facilities such as transport, power,
communication, drinking water, sewerage, drainage etc. comparable with NCTDelhi.
v) To provide a rational land use pattern in order to protect and preserve good agricultural land and utilise
unproductive land for urban uses.
vi) To promote sustainable development in the region to improve quality of life.

vii) To improve the efficiency of existing methods of resource mobilisation and adopt innovative methods
of resource mobilisation and facilitate, attract and guide private investment in desired direction.
Four major land use zones and three sub-zones have been identified and policies and proposals for each
of the zones and sub-zones have been given as under:
1. Controlled development zone: Developments in this zone are to be in accordance with the
Master/Development Plans.
2. Highway corridor zone: With an objective to control urban development along the important
highways in the region minimum 500 meters on either side of the Right of Way (RoW) of the
Highways outside the Controlled/Development/Regulated Areas.
3. Natural area conservation zone: The major natural features, identified as environmentally
sensitive areas.
4. Agriculture (Rural) Zone outside Controlled/Development/Regulated Areas:This zone has to be
regulated and guided by Village and Block Plans to be drawn under the District Planning Process.
In addition to the NCR, the NCRPB has also selected, in consultation with the respective state
governments, following Counter Magnet Areas (CMA), considering their location, population and potential
growth for implementing development programs, in order to achieve the objectives of the regional plan: (i)
Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh State); (ii) Patiala (Punjab); (iii) Hissar (Haryana); (iv) Kota (Rajasthan); and (v)
Bareilly (Uttar Pradesh).

Common wealth games (CWG)2010
History
1982 saw the return of the Asian Games to its original home, New Delhi. The first edition of the Asian
Games had been held in 1951 with eleven participating nations and six competitive sports. By 1982, the
games had grown manifold with 33 nations and nearly 4600 athletes and officials participating in 21
sports and 147 events, the largest ever Asian Games.2 The games had grown to be the second largest
sporting event in the world, second only to the Summer Olympics. The 1982 Games was the first time
after independence that the country was playing host to an international event of this magnitude. The
world’s attention was about to be focused on the city and it was not going to disappoint. The games were
an announcement to the world that India had arrived. The games seem to have a very deep felt impact on
the country as a whole, interestingly in many arenas far removed from sport.
There had been a change of government in-between and a lot of political turmoil had plagued the country
in those years. The city was to be prepared to host the largest event it had ever experienced, along with
build numerous stadiums, flyovers, hotels and the Games Village in a span of 20 months. Buildings like
the player’s building and the roof of the Talkatora swimming pool weren’t completed on time,
development was haphazard and short sighted, and there was little importance given to planning norms
and regulations. though estimates seem to place it at between Rs 7-10,000 million, (Lin, S. G. and
Patnaik, N. 1982), a sum a nation as poor as India could hardly afford. Economics and planning were
often put aside as all trumpeted the notion of ‘international prestige and patriotic fervour’. The Games had
become an emotive issue, and anyone raising questions about it was unpatriotic and a traitor. Any old
timer in the city will tell you that it was in 1982 that Delhi finally began to ‘develop’. The build up to the
games saw an unprecedented construction spree in the city with stadiums, the games village, hotels,
flyovers and roads, even Pragati Maidan being built, all with 1982 as the deadline. The skyline of the city
literally changed overnight.
The development of this site probably had the largest urban impact on the city due to its correlation with
the development of south Delhi. South Delhi was a region that had already begun development, but it was
only after the 1982 games that this region gained importance. Three of the four flyovers developed at the

time, the Moolchand, Sewa Nagar and Oberoi flyovers were in south Delhi. The city, which had been
growing rapidly, was running out of space and this region seemed perfect for development. The area
where the village was developed, Siri Fort, was originally a Master Plan green but at this time was
reallocated for the use of the village. The necessary development provided by the games in South Delhi
just accentuated the impact of the games on urban infrastructure. It provided the region with broad roads
and flyovers for swift movement of traffic and other infrastructure as well such as water, electricity and
other civic amenities. In the construction frenzy that preceded the Asian Games, lakhs of workers entered
the city, increasing the population of the city from 55 lakh to 65 lakh.

In 2010, India is going to become the second developing nation ever, to host the Commonwealth Games
(CWG), the third largest multi sport event in the world. The games have the ability to transform the city’s
urban landscape and at the same time may simply be an extremely expensive ‘Public Relation’ exercise.
India is preparing to break out on the world scene as an economic superpower, and the games are a step
in propelling India on to the world stage. The over arching theme seems to transform Delhi into a ‘world
class’ city by 2010. Urban renewal or regeneration has been a theme in many such events in the past and
appears an important one in the 2010 games as well.
The work ahead of the games can be broadly grouped into the following: 1. New Stadiums and renovation
of existing stadiums 2. Games Village. 3. Transport sector. 4. Urban public services like water and
electricity. 5. Efforts to make Delhi ‘world-class’.An outline of the projected work is given below.
National Stadium: • To be made spectator-friendly, playing turf to be moved closer • Rear seating gallery
to make way for changing rooms, medical rooms, offices • Three new turfs, with floodlight facilities at two,
including main arena
Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium, Yamuna Velodrome • Stadium roof to be changed • AC, lighting, audio-
visual systems to be replaced • New warm-up gym on the Lakeside • On eastern side, a hostel and multi-
media center will be set up. • Cycling velodrome will be upgraded.
Nehru Stadium • Major upgrade for Games showpiece: from open-close roof (partial) with filament
material to constructing a tunnel leading to players’ warm-up area • New floodlights (with the pillars
inside), audio/visual system to electronic scoreboard and partial AC • All upper tiers will have bucket
seats instead of existing concrete arrangement. • Stadium will be linked with rail-road-metro system
(Railway Ministry has been notified about this and it will have to undertake the job at its cost with a station
close by). Talkatora Pool • Existing pool will be renovated completely (with AC possible) and covered •
New pool for synchronised swimming to be constructed. • But the pools will be used for training purposes
only.
Karni Singh shooting range • A new 300-metre range and a Final Scoring System range.

The banks of the Yamuna are the largest open space left in the city, as well as the largest groundwater
recharge zone. 23 The 25 km stretch along the river has 97 sq km of prime land, 7 per cent of Delhi's total
area. The hospitality sector is another area that is estimated to grow rapidly in the coming years, with the
help of the Commonwealth Games. Delhi government has made it one of their aims to develop an
effective mass transport system in the city, and solve the massive congestion problem that the city faces.
The roads of the city are to get a major facelift before the games with plans for many bypasses and
broadening projects. Roads like the Mehrauli-Mahipalpur Road, MehrauliBadarpur Road and
interconnecting roads which link up to the airport are to be broadened. This ‘peripheral expressway’ is
projected to be 270 km long, with a 136-km Western Peripheral Expressway and a 134-km Eastern
Peripheral Expressway, and will go through large parts of Haryana, UP and Delhi. This will dramatically
reduce pressure on Delhi’s existing ring roads, as at the moment inter-state traffic has no way of
bypassing the city. The metro, whose presentation before the Commonwealth Games evaluation team
made a sizable impression, is at the core of developing an efficient mass transport system in the city with
Phase 1 of the metro being fully operational. However more importantly, phase 2, aimed at extending the
network much further in the city, is already under construction, and is set to be ready before 2010.
The other major boost to infrastructure is the airport privatisation. In 1982, a new International Departure
and Arrival hall had been built. This time, after a stringent bidding process, the government formally
privatized the entire airport, with the GMR group winning the bid.
The city is all set to transform itself by the time it plays host to the Commonwealth Games. However it is
also necessary to keep one thing in mind that Delhi is a rapidly growing city, a dynamic economy and an
integral part of India’s growth engine. This means that it would be wrong to place the causation of all
infrastructure and urban development onto the Commonwealth Games. A large amount of it would
probably have taken place anyway, the games just gives it a geographical bias and a deadline.

SITE STUDY

GROUP 1: MORPHOLOGY
LOCATION- IN LAJPAT NAGAR,DELHI
WARD -57 S,
CENSUS WARD-155
TOTAL AREA OF THE SITE – 108.15 HA
TOTAL POPULATION OF THE SITE - 27920
GEOGRAPHICAL POSITION OF THE SITE:
The Site chosen for the exercise is a nondescript portion of the Delhi city bound by Mathura Road on the
east, Inner Ring Road on the south, Ring railway on the North and Lajpat Nagar in the West. Ashram
Flyover is an important landmark junction. A large part of the site is occupied by Hindustan Prefab Ltd.
which was established soon after independence to meet the rising housing demands. In due course of
time the development of roads, flyovers and railway lines have made the site practically inaccessible to
common people, practically creating an urban island. Initially for the study of the site ,it divided into four
areas-1)Ashram Area ,2) Nehru Nagar, 3) HPL and 4) Jal Vihar.
The site is a fragmented collage of different styles and the scales. The identity of the site lies on the core,
which is Hindustan Pre Fab ltd., which was established in the year of 1950, in order to cater the housing
demand govt. came up with this technology of Prefabrication and set up Hindustan Prefab Ltd.

From the span of Twenty years, there not much development within the site and also outside of it. This
might be largely because of the existence of the Drain, which is coming from the pumping station to the
Okhla. One very obvious change in the chronology is existence of Gandhi Camp, which used to be
existed on the presently Lala Lajpat Rai Memorial Park. Along with all these slum which are there on the
site, Gandhi Camp was also one of them. Due to the rehabilitation program by the Govt. theu had been
shifted to Narela in the year of 2004.

1.1 BUILT- UNBUILT MAP
Maps 10: Source-author

With help of Volumetric analysis we can clearly see the built unbuilt ratios, the total built percentage is
33% while that of the unbuilt is 67%. A huge open chunk is clearly visible more towards the left and also

towards the center. But these open spaces are not even connected with each other. It can be evident that
ashram has higher built density while spaces like Jal Vihar are underutilized in terms of Built Densities.
Also Nehru Nagar is a planned setup, although it is lacking with the optimum densities prescribed by
MPD.
1.2 LANDUSE

1.3 BUILDING USE

Upon reviewing the building use and the Landuse map, it is evident that Ashram has 47.3% as
residential, 1.62% as commercial, 6.38% as mixed use and 3.97% as public - semi public.
Nehru Nagar has 16.6% residential, 2.89% commercial, 2.90% mixeduse and 9.48% Public –semi public.
Jal vihar colony has 8.17% residential, 0.5% commercial, 2.59% mixed use and 0.37% as for public –
semi Public. Hindustan prefab ltd has 3.44% residential , 0.79% as mixeduse and 5.41% as Industrial.

2.3 ETHNIC AND RELIGION
On site, people of every religion lives. Mostly Hindus lives on the site. Every community has its religious
place within their neighborhood. Ashram is historically a temple site. The complete settlement of ashram
exist as a hereditary of people working in that ashram. After the independence, the working peoples of
the ashram silted the land is divided in uneven parcels. The Nehru nagar on the other hand has temples
mosque and a gurudwara
Mixed Culture - 46%

Nepali and mixed Culture – 15%
Nepali and Rajasthani – 8%
Madrasi and mixed Culture -
Punjabi – 8%
Public – 8%
The site is an amalgamation of different cultures. There are seven camps on the site namely
shiv camp, madrasi camp, madrasi camp with squatters, adhivasi camp, pratap camp, indra
camp and vijay camp. These camps have majority of Hindu population which includes Nepali,
madrasi,rajasthani, Moradabadi and people of mixed culture .In jal board, HPFL, CSIR and
Ashram areas 89-95% population is of Hindu’s. The Nehru nagar area has a highest population

of Hindus which is approximately 90% being Sindhis and Sikhsand Punjabis.The following map
depicts the overall percentage of the diverse cultures existing on the site. There exists 46%
mixed culture, 15% nepali , 8% rajasthani and 8% Punjabi.
2.4 SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Among the health facility hospitals such as Vihmans and chest clinic for tb are present on the
site. Provision of other health facilities such as mohalla clinic and dispensary are there. Security
infrastructure like Police station, police post and booths exists. There are no major police
stations within the site two police stations surround the site namely Sri Niwas puri policed
station and sunlight colony police station. There are many social infrastructure facilities on the
site, which has been given by some private and government bodies. There are ten primary
schools like Oxford public school, SDMC primary school, nagar palika prathmik school catering
the people of Nehru nagar, Jal board, Ashram and slums and play school in this area but there
is only one Senior Secondary school which is not enough to cover such large population. For
safety issues there are three Police stations. Along with these facilities there are two Hospitals,

community center and fire station are provided. With aspect to whole site, green area is
sufficient, but few areas like Ashram and slums they don’t have green areas or park for
recreation and sports activity.

2.5 WORKCENTERS
The work centers composed
of industrial, govt offices,
commercial areas as place of
work. There are majorly
nonhierarchical type of
commercial areas exists near
site such as Lajpat nagar
central market, Bhogal as
service sector market and
commercial center of Nehru
nagar. Some planned
societies including DJB and
Siddhartha extension has
convenience shopping’s center.
As per MPD, Commercial center of Nehru nagar has been proposed as a fruits and vegetable market.
However over the period of time that has been converted into automobile service market. Nehru nagar
and ashram has mixed land use pattern. Daily shopping requirements in these areas are being fulfilled by
the shops on the ground floor.
As per URDPFI guidelines, for the shopping needs 1 shop caters to 110 person. So according to the
estimated population it has been identified that there is a deficiency of convenience shopping Centre in
Nehru nagar, HPL and Vihmans. There are weekly market exist near the site which will cater to the needs
of low income population including slums. Through the proximity radius it is observed that the slum of
adivasi camp, pratap camp, Indra camp are located on far off places. These slums are deficient of any
informal sector market near there vicinity.

During the site visit it has been observed that
there is lack of informal sector near these work
centers mentioned above. Informal sector
basically consists of mobile units and temporary in
nature. There is a deficiency in the number of
informal shops near the hospital, school, service
sector market, convenience shopping centers,
residential and industrial areas. Development of
these informal sector has the potential to increase
the employability of the slum.

2.6 SWOT ANALYSIS

2.7 STRUCTURE PLAN:
The Total population of the slums is 14,375 And the Projected population: 17000
From which the Working population (33%) is 5150
The people engaged in the informal sector are 80% and in the formal sector are 18% in four slums that
are Madrasi , Shiv, Pratap, Indira camp
The people engaged in the informal sector are 70% and in the formal sector are 30% in the adhiwasi slum
The people engaged in the informal sector are 65% and in the formal sector are 35% in the vijay slum
It has been concluded through the survey that an average of 75% work force in invo-lved in informal
sector and 25% work force in formal sector
The vision of our proposals is the economic upliftment of these slums.
Our proposals are as follows:
1. DEVELOPING INFORMAL SECTOR NEAR WORK STATIONS, HOSPITALS AND SCHOOLS
2. PROPOSAL FOR HANDICRAFT WAREHOUSE
3. MOHALLA CLINIC
4. REDEVELOPMENT OF COMMERCIAL CENTER IN NEHRU

NAGAR
5. WEEKLY MARKET
6. SKILL DEVELOPMENT CENTRE

GROUP 3: PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE
3.1 PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

The study covers the quality and quantity of available of infrastructure in HPL site.
The report covers both the aspects: Physical infrastructure.
The physical infrastructure consist of the following infrastructure
Transport system, Water supply, Sewerage system, Electricity and solid waste management system.
3.2 TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT

Transport planning is a branch of traffic engineering that uses planning technique to achieve the safe and
efficient movement of people and goods on roadways. It focuses mainly on research for safe and efficient
traffic flow, such as road geometry, sidewalks, and traffic signs, road surface markings and traffic lights.
The aspect deals with the functional part of transportation system. Traffic and transportation covers the
circulation pattern, hierarchy of roads, area served and unnerved through different roads such as national
highway, state highway, district roads and link roads. Traffic and transportation is very important aspect
because it gives us an overall view of the town. The overall view of the town means the location of
various activities with respect to circulation.
3.3 CONNECTIVITY
Our site is well connected by Delhi Transport Corporation bus services and the Delhi Mass Rapid Transit
System. Route no. 543 connects East Delhi Anand Vihar to Lajpat Nagar, and Teevr Mudrika connects
Lajpat Nagar to the North (Rohini) and West Delhi Punjabi Bagh. The site is located between
the Jangpura, Lajpat nagar, Vinoba puri and Ashram stations. The station was opened to public along
with the first section of the Violet Line. Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGI) is 23 km from Lajpat
Nagar.[4]

 15 minutes from Central Secretariat (Delhi Metro) station via the Delhi Metro
 5 Minutes from Kalkaji via Nehru Place station Delhi Metro
 15 minutes from Sarita Vihar (Delhi Metro) station via the Delhi Metro
 15 minutes from Nizamuddin Railway Station
 35 minutes from New Delhi Railway Station
 10 minutes from the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium
 25 minutes from Connaught Place via Rajiv Chowk station Delhi Metro.
 10 minutes from Kalka Mandir metro station via Delhi Metro.

3.4 Sources of water supply in the town
Delhi Jal Board, an autonomous body under Govt. is responsible for procurement and treatment of bulk
water in Delhi. It is responsible for supply of drinking water in areas of three Delhi Municipal corporations
and also makes bulk supply of treated water to Delhi Cantonment Board and NDMC area for distribution.
Source of Raw water in Delhi is from Ganga River (330 MGD), Yamuna River (207 MGD), Bhakra
Storage (218 MGD) and from ground water (80 MGD). The water treatment and supply capacity, which
was 650 MGD in 2002 has been increased to 906 MGD in 2014.

2. To meet the growing requirement of water due to the increase in population at a rapid rate, Delhi Jal
Board (DJB) is sincerely putting concerted efforts to increase the water supply and treatment capacity in
every Five Year Plan. Efforts are being made by the Government for an equitable and adequate Water
Supply in all parts of the NCT of Delhi by laying new water lines, construction of Under Ground
Reservoirs, construction of new Water Treatment Plants, etc.
3. As per 2011 Census, 33.41 lakh households were in Delhi, out of which 27.16 lakh households were
provided piped water supply system. About 4.61 lakh households were getting water supply through tube
wells/ deep bore hand pumps/ public hydrants and remaining 1.64 lakh households depended on other
sources like river, canal, ponds, tank, spring, etc. The information regarding distributions of households
by availability of Drinking water facility and source in Delhi as per 2011 Census is presented in Statement
13.1.
4. About 81.3% households of Delhi now have access to piped water supply. Water production during
summer season is being maintained at 835 MGD per day consistently. Water is supplied to about 18
million population of Delhi through a water supply network comprising of 14000 km long pipelines and
more than 107 underground reservoirs (UGRs). 407 new water tankers with stainless steel containers
and fitted with GPS have been engaged on long duration contact for improving the water tanker supply
delivery system in the city. 5. Water supply distribution network has been developed in a planned manner
to cover both planned and unplanned areas. Water supply is made available to 903 unauthorized

colonies. Filter water supply is also provided to another 50 unauthorized colonies, covering a population
of about 2 lakh people.
3.5 Water Requirement
6.1. Based on the norm of water supply of 60 Gallon Per Capita per Day (GPCD) as per Central Public
Health and Environmental Engineering Organization (CPHEEO), Ministry of Urban Development,
Government of India assessed the total requirement of water of Delhi at 1020 MGD based on population
of Delhi as per 2011 Census. The details of water requirement as per norms is as under;
6.2. Master Plan of Delhi-2021 prepared by Delhi Development Authority proposed water requirement
with the norm of 80 Gallon Per Capita Per Day (GPCD), out of which 50 GPCD is for domestic
requirement and 30 GPCD for non-domestic purposes. The domestic water requirement of 50 GPCD
comprises of 30 GPCD for potable needs and 20 GPCD for nonpotable water usage.

3.6 Sources of water supply
Water supply in DJB, Ashram, Nehru Nagar, HPFL, CSIR source are major from Ganga River , Yamuna
River, Bhakra Storage and from ground water. DJB supplies daily to these areas in form of treated water
during morning from 5.30 am to 7.30 am( this water is potable for drinking) and in evening from 4.30 pm
to 6.30pm (non potable water).
The treated water is supplied from Sonia Vihar is collected from the reservoir, there is Kilokari
underground reservoir located at the DJB land having capacity of 8MJD and Ring Road UGR having
capacity of 2.5 MGD.
Key Issues-
- Due insufficient drinking water or treated water supply in the area, 27 no. of tube wells are
provided to fulfil this gap between supply and demand.
- Inspite of this provision Ashram is water deficient area, but certain measures are taken by DJB to
fulfill the need.
Need for Future Projection-
TOTAL WATER USED = 2.8 MGD
FUTURE POPULATION = 135 X 32000 = 0.96 MJD
+ water abstratcted from 27 tube wells by DJB.

3.7 SEWARAGE
Provision of sewarage facility in the area consists of – sewage system, sewage disposal, network catering
population of 14,000 on site.
There two Sewarage Pumping Station(SPS) house- Kilokari pumping station, Ring Road pumping station.
Kilokari SPS- The rising pumping main station pump 70 MGD of waste towards Okhla WTP daily.
Ring Road SPS- The designed capacity for this SPS is of 80 MGD and total waste water generated is 60
MJD.
Waste water generated in the site area – Total waste water generated is 7 MGD.
According to Population = 135 X 14000 ( which equals to 4.2 MGD)

3.9.1 ORIGIN AND DESTINATION ANALYSIS
The origin and destination analysis of the site is done around the major Metro Station taken as the major
destination and other residential colonies are taken as secondary destinations. The origin taken for the
survey’s are slums, high density residential areas and planned colonies like – Nehru Nagar, Csir, sunlight
colony, etc.
The analysis was done to see the comfortable walking distance of a pedestrian from metro station. This
survey shows that all the metro stations are within the walkable distance of – 500 to 1000 m. Also, the
nearness to mixed use and commercial areas have been witnessed and analysed through this analysis.

3.10 PED – SHED ANALYSIS

3.11 STRUCTURE PLAN

4.0HOUSING TYPOLOGY
4.1 Introduction
The area is study is located in south Delhi ward no.155. The site majorly consist of different land
use like industrial, commercial, institutional and majorly residential. The site has majorly
residential area like jal vihar, Nehru nagar, ashram, HPL staff colony, CSRI housing and railway
colony. The site is also in filled with many slums at various locations creating the contrasting
housing condition in the area.
The given site is situated along the ring road and on prominent traffic intersection of ashram
chowk. Some part of the site is in land lock condition due to three railway track interconnecting
okhla, lajpat nagar and nizamuddin railway station. The site is fragmented in three parts formed
due to railway track, the inner ring road and Mathura road.
The main issues identified are as below:
1. Fragmentation- Due to interconnecting route of railway line, inner ring road and Mathura road
2. Huge disparity in population density- There is huge disparity in population density between
planned and unplanned housing clusters.
4.2 Density
Population density in planned public housing is very low as mentioned.
Density in planned housing -2430 P/Ha
Density in unplanned areas (JJ Clusters) - 18710 P/ Ha
4.3 Typology
Planned residential
 Jal vihar residential area
 CSIR housing
 HPL staff quarters: Most apartments are HPL housing are vacant. Some building in HPL
and railway colonies are old and dilapidated.
 Nehru nagar residential area

4.4 Slums
Almost half the population (14,375) at site resides in JJ clusters. The density in these clusters is
much higher than the norms. All slums are identified as JJ clusters and public toilets are
available and functional. However, piped water supply and underground drainage is absent.
There is diversity of character, culture and resultant morphology amongst the slums.
1 PGDAV Staff and Adivasi Camp
2 Pratap Camp
3 Indira Camp
4 Vijay Camp
5 Madrasi Camp
6 Shiv Camp
4.5 Urban village

Unequal Distribution of green and open spaces- Appropriate green and open spaces are
present in the planned housing schemes as per norms. However, the same is shared by the
population is JJ clusters. Adequate linkages are absent and distant, adding a layer of socio-
cultural fragmentation.
Presence of decaying and dormant industrial institution- Hindustan Prefab Limited is a decaying
industrial institution of repute and historic value. The industry is landlocked and particularly
fragmented.

5. Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme (CLSS) under the Pradhan Mantri AwasYojna (Urban)
Interest subsidy upto 2 lakh on home loans for MIG.
6. SEWA Grih Rin ltd
7. Upgradation and repair of dilapidated railway quarters. Proposed allotment to any
bidders in EWS. This is done to bring in outsiders and generate social permeability.
CLSS to be made available as these are bigger flats- 1BHK with balconies. For
example- Kalkaji high rise DDA flats

4.8 Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna
The Mission will be implemented
through four verticals giving
option to beneficiaries, ULBs
and State Governments. These
four verticals are as below:
State Governments and cities
would, if required, provide
additional Floor Area Ratio
(FAR)/Floor Space Index
(FSI)/Transferable Development
Rights (TDR) for making slum
redevelopment projects
financially viable. Slum
rehabilitation grant of Rs. 1 lakh
per house, on an average, would
be admissible for all houses built
for eligible slum dwellers in all
such projects.
Slum on central government
land (page 15 PMAY)
 Central government land

owning agencies should also
undertake “in-situ” slum
redevelopment on their lands
occupied by slums by using it
as a resource for providing
houses to slum dwellers.
Central Government agencies
should not charge land costs
for the land used for the
purpose of housing the
eligible slum dwellers.
