Delhi development body to launch new online housing scheme

The Delhi Development Authority will soon launch a housing scheme offering 10,300 newly-built flats across different categories in various localities, officials said Monday. The scheme, however, will be an online one so application and other processes will be done online, they said. The decision was taken during authority meeting of the DDA, held under the chairmanship of the Lt Governor at Raj Niwas. A draft policy on "enhancing walkability" in Delhi on the line of that in Chennai was also approved in the meeting. "The drafty policy will now be placed in public domain for three weeks for inviting comments," a senior official said.
