Noida, India (prHWY.com) June 30, 2012 - In a big step towards resumption of work in the stalled housing projects of Noida 'Extension', a statutory committee of the NCR Planning Board (NCRPB) on Thursday approved the revised draft Master Plan-2021 for Greater Noida and recommended it to the board. In October 2011, the Allahabad high court had stopped construction in the area saying the Master Plan had not been approved by the board. Government sources said the NCRPB, headed by Union urban development minister Kamal Nath, is now expected to meet within a fortnight to look at the Master Plan. Once the board approves it, work can resume in the housing projects of Greater Noida, particularly in the area popularly known as Noida Extension . "Though the board can make some suggestions when the plan is put before the members, the draft plan is likely to be cleared.

The statutory committee is satisfied with the changes incorporated by the Greater Noida Authority," a source added. The draft development plan for Greater Noida-2021 has included provisions for water supply, sewerage, drainage, power and solid waste management, as per norms. "We have a complete and all-inclusive development plan before us. The authority has identified sites for solid waste management and has also earmarked them in the plan. It will not make any changes in future. All environmental issues have been addressed in the revised plan," said an official. The revised plan has also incorporated a provision of keeping 16% of the urbanizable area as a green belt.

"The planning committee wanted to ascertain whether the revised draft Master Plan is in conformity with our regional Plan 2021, as directed by the high court. After some changes were made, we are recommending the draft plan to the board for approval," a senior NCRPB official said. "We found that development in Greater Noida is better planned than other cities in NCR like Gurgaon and Faridabad . The existing green belt would be conserved by the authority and we have kept stringent conditions that there will be no conversion or shifting of the green belt by the authority," said an official who attended the meeting. Green belts have been massively encroached upon across the country by urban development authorities. Most authorities taking advantage of provisions allowing compensatory forestation in other areas, which has no positive impact on the affected region.

No such provision exists in the Greater Noida plan 2021. As per the plan, the authority will allow industries using only non-polluting clean technology in this region. Environmental management plan being prepared by the authority will be an integral part of the Master Plan. The authority has also increased the housing quota for economically weaker sections (EWS) and low income groups from earlier 5% to 20-25%. This will be adhered to while preparing sector layout plans. A go-head to the plan will not only bring huge relief to home buyers, it would also put construction work back on track in the region. This will also have a huge impact on economic activities, besides employment generation.
