The Haryana Urban Development Authority (now rechristened as Haryana Sahari Vikas Pradhikaran) has overcome all hurdles in the legal arena for physically handing over the Dwarka e-way project to National Highway Authority of India (NHAI), and is set for speedy completion of this carriageway which has been stuck for several years now.
The Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA) is a statutory body under Haryana Urban Development Authority Act, 1977.
Its functions are as follows: -
• To promote and secure development of urban areas in a systematic and planned way with the power to acquire, sell and dispose off the property – both movable and immovable.
• Use this to acquire land for residential, industrial, recreational and commercial purposes.
• To create availability of already developed land to Haryana Housing Board and other bodies for giving houses to the EWS (Economically Weaker Sections) of the society, and
• To undertake building works.
The Dwarka e-way project was formulated in 2006. However, this project has been getting delayed since 2010, when it was already expected to be completed, missing out several deadlines in the procedure. Despite 5 years since its emancipation, after the announcement of the rehabilitation policy, HUDA has been unable to clear the land required for the e-way.
The National Rehabilitation and Resettlement Policy, 2007 has the primary objective of minimizing displacement as far as possible and to promote, to ensure adequate rehabilitation package and expeditious implementation of the rehabilitation process with active participation of the affected families to ensure that special care is taken for protecting the rights of the weaker sections of the society, and to ensure a better standard of living for their treatment with concern and sensitivity.
Now, the 27-kilometer-long e-way has been stuck for the want of clearing habitation on some of the areas of the land falling in Gurugram and Delhi. In 2017, NHAI cleared the Delhi land hurdle and looked forward to the acquisition process for approximately 10 acres of remaining land for the Delhi portion of the e-way. In Gurugram, this process of ousters in Palam Vihar and Kherki Daula had stalled work on the 3.5 kilometer stretch out of the 18 kilometers long portion falling in Gurugram. But at present, the authorities have been into removing all the structures coming in the way of highway, falling under Gurugram and rehabilitating the ousters, as per the directions given by the Punjab & Haryana High Court, e-way is expected to be completed soon.
Pradeep Agarwal, The Chairman of Signature Global made an assertive statement in this regard, saying it as a great development, as the hurdles have now been cleared and hopes can be made for starting the construction process of the e-way by NHAI. He also added that it would create a positive impact on the real estate industry as thousands of apartments, that have come up along Dwarka Expressway, were hard-hit due to lack of proper connectivity and inadequate infrastructure.
Signature Global, led by a strong management and highly-qualified Board-of-Directors team, it is poised for rapid growth. The team’s extraordinary experience and detailed industry insight allows the company to discover new opportunities and realize their true potential. Its projects are widely spread across the country - be it the corporate offices or residential buildings. Their projects cover the areas of Gurugram, Karnal and Ghaziabad. Some of their successfully completed projects include: -
4. The Serenas (Sector 36, South of Gurugram), and many more.
