Centre Approves Rs 65-Crore Mapping Project to Advance Delhi's PM-UDAY Scheme
The Central government has approved a Rs 65-crore 'DRISHTI' project to support the PM-UDAY Scheme, which aims to grant property rights to residents of Delhi's unauthorised colonies. This initiative will establish a modern geospatial GIS-based survey and mapping system across all 13 districts of Delhi, with PM-UDAY Cells set up locally and at headquarters. The project, funded mostly by the Urban Development Fund, seeks to make property surveys more transparent, systematic, and timely, involving the Delhi Development Authority, Revenue Department, and Municipal Corporation of Delhi.
