31 Jan 2024 CW Team

Jewar, a burgeoning hub on the outskirts of Delhi, is poised for a transformative metamorphosis with the acquisition of 5,000 hectares near its airport. This strategic move signals a monumental shift, opening vistas for extensive industrial and residential development. The government's ambitious plan aims to leverage the proximity to the airport, fostering economic growth and urban expansion.
