Draft Regional Plan-2041 Designates KMP Corridor as NCR's Growth Engine
The Draft Regional Plan-2041 designates the 135-km Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Expressway corridor and adjacent areas as the Central NCR (CNCR), termed the 'Golden Ring of Opportunity.' This zone, extending up to five kilometres beyond the Eastern and Western Peripheral Expressways, is planned as the primary economic growth engine of the National Capital Region, contributing to India's goal of a $5 trillion economy. The CNCR will see high-intensity development, including mixed-use projects, smart-city infrastructure modeled on AURIC City, and five new greenfield cities called Panchgrams, focusing on industrial and urban expansion.
