On plans of building smart cities, the DDA was questioned how it would do that considering water shortage in the Capital. The authority on Friday said every effort will be made for optimum utilisation of water. DDA Vice-Chairman Balvinder Kumar said: “We will ensure that no drop of water is wasted and there is optimum utilisation and efficient recycling,” he said.
The DDA is planning to develop three smart cities – on extension of Dwarka, Rohini and Narela with uninterrupted power and water supply and wi-fi connectivity.
The DDA will also be developing a lake city complex at Mayur Vihar with rejuvenation of Sanjay Lake. The integrated commercial and housing project will be brought on 25 acres of DDA land with a metro station at the centre of all development.
The complex will be complete with shopping centre, hotels, sports club, hostel and food courts.
