The Master Plan for Delhi 2047, unveiled on Thursday, sets out a wide-ranging blueprint for the capital, spanning housing, transport, redevelopment, the Yamuna and environmental protection as Delhi prepares for a projected population of 3.2 crore.
Union Housing and Urban Affairs Minister Manohar Lal said the plan targets 30-40 lakh new flats and expansion of the metro network to 695 km by 2047. It also provides for six new Regional Rapid Transit System corridors, expanded bus connectivity and affordable housing through the Transit Oriented Development Policy.
