GMDA Approves Rs 30B Budget for 2025-26 with Key Infrastructure Upgrades

The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) has approved a budget of Rs 30.34 billion for the fiscal year 2025-26, alongside infrastructure projects worth nearly Rs 9 billion to meet the city’s growing urban requirements. The approvals were made during the 14th GMDA board meeting chaired by Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on April 23.

A major highlight of the meeting was the green light for the construction of flyovers and underpasses at five congestion-prone junctions along the new metro corridor, including Railway Road Chowk, Sector 5 junction, Krishna Chowk, Rezang La Chowk, and the Old Delhi Road-Palam Vihar junction.

The GMDA has also approved the construction of five grade separators and an underpass at Bakhtawar Chowk to be carried out by GMRL as part of a 'deposit work' arrangement, which aims to expedite the execution process without delays.

To tackle stormwater drainage issues, Rs 700 million has been allocated for the reconstruction of key sections of the master drain network in Sectors 21, 22, and 23, covering over 4.2 km. The work will address structural failures caused by prolonged sewage exposure.

Additional approvals include Rs 1.1 billion for replacing a key pipeline from Basai Water Treatment Plant to Sector 16 and Rs 1.34 billion to upgrade a 15 km stretch of the city’s sewer line network. A Rs 418 million project has also been approved for a new road connecting NH-8 to Naurangpur between Sectors 78 and 80.
