Delhi Master Plan 2041 delayed, key deadline looms

The Delhi Master Plan 2041 has been pending for over a year, with the central government likely to miss a crucial deadline for its approval. The plan, essential for shaping the city's development and infrastructure over the next two decades, has faced significant delays.

Officials have yet to finalize the plan, which aims to address various urban challenges, including housing, transportation, and environmental sustainability. The delay has raised concerns among city planners and residents about the future trajectory of Delhi's growth and development.

The central government's inability to meet the deadline reflects ongoing challenges in urban planning and coordination. Efforts are being made to expedite the review process and ensure that the plan is approved as soon as possible to support orderly and sustainable development in Delhi.

The postponement underscores the need for timely planning and decision-making in managing the rapid urbanization of major cities.
