DDA to resume inspection of properties in illegal colonies

According to DDA, total 2.57 lakh registrations had been completed on the DDA portal created for PM-UDAY and GIS mapping of 70,000 properties had been done.

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) is gearing up to resume inspection of properties in 1,731 unauthorised colonies by surveyors after the lockdown for conferring ownership rights to residents of these colonies under the Pradhan Mantri Unauthorised Colonies in Delhi Awas Adhikar Yojana (PM-UDAY).

“The work of physically surveying the properties cannot be carried out during the lockdown as surveyors wouldn’t be able to get the geo-coordinates of the properties. However, survey work would be resumed immediately after the lockdown with due precautions and keeping safety of both residents and surveyors in mind,” a DDA official said.

“The authority, however, was working on war footing to complete all backend and online work during the lockdown,” he said. “We were providing complete online service under the scheme for granting ownership rights and all processing work was going on at full pace,” he said.

According to DDA, total 2.57 lakh registrations had been completed on the DDA portal created for PM-UDAY and GIS mapping of 70,000 properties had been done. DDA had received 4,900 completed applications. During the lockdown, DDA’s four processing centres at Dwarka, Pitampura, Hauz Khas and Laxmi Nagar had been operational.

Apart from resuming inspections of properties by surveyors, DDA would also carry out the execution of authorisation slip or conveyance deed of properties for which all due process had been completed. The Centre had in October 2019 approved the proposal to grant ownership rights to residents of the 1,731 unauthorised colonies in the city.
