MCD Clears Rs 11.5 Billion Projects Including Puzzle Parking

After a gap of over two years, the newly reinstated Standing Committee of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has approved a range of civic and infrastructure projects worth approximately Rs 11.5 billion. Among the key decisions is the construction of a multi-level puzzle parking facility at Bharat Darshan Park in west Delhi, costing Rs 316 million, which will accommodate 188 vehicles. The project will be executed within 12 months and includes 10 years of operation and maintenance by the implementing agency.
Standing Committee Chairman Satya Sharma stated the parking, equipped with advanced automation, will ease congestion and enhance visitor convenience at the popular tourist site.
Another significant approval includes setting up an ingesta plant at the Ghazipur slaughterhouse to process paunch waste, addressing environmental concerns and restoring hygiene. The slaughterhouse had been closed in May 2022 following a National Green Tribunal order. Although an RO plant was earlier installed via a public-private partnership, the ingesta unit—costing Rs 60 million—awaited financial clearance.
The committee also sanctioned a Rs 11.44 billion phased LED lighting project, aimed at replacing around 400,000 public lights across Central, West, South, and Najafgarh zones. The project includes a 10-year maintenance plan.
Additional approvals include procurement of 17 backhoe loaders for sanitation services, continued maintenance of mechanical sweepers, renewal of NGO contracts for cremation ground management, and identification of land for a new DTC bus depot in Hari Nagar.
These initiatives mark a major push to revive and modernise essential public infrastructure across Delhi.
