New Delhi: Public Works Department minister Parvesh Verma said on Saturday that the long-awaited Delhi Master Plan 2041 was almost ready and would be implemented very soon. He added that with the rollout of the new master plan, 48 rural villages in the capital would also become urbanised.Verma made the announcement during his visit to southwest Delhi’s Daulatpur village, where a number of villagers were protesting and demanding redressal of their grievances.The minister also announced that the first registry of properties falling under the Lal Dora category would be done for free. The move, Verma said, was expected to resolve long-pending property disputes and enable people to obtain legal ownership documents without financial burden.“The long-awaited Master Plan 2041 is in its final stages and will be implemented very soon. Our goal is not just to create policies, but to transparently implement them on the ground with accountability,” Verma told reporters. “Master Plan 2041 will change the face of Delhi’s villages and provide the rural population with facilities at par with urban areas,” he added.The minister said the urbanisation of villages would mark a historic shift in the national capital’s development strategy. It will not only bring infrastructural growth to these areas but also provide access to essential urban amenities such as paved roads, proper drainage systems, reliable water supply, street lighting, schools and healthcare facilities, he said.In a separate statement, Verma said a world-class cow shelter would be built in Ghumanhera village at a cost of Rs 47 crore. The proposed shelter, designed to accommodate up to 5,000 cows, will be one of the largest and most modern facilities of its kind in the city, he added.Addressing a gathering of villagers, gau-sevaks, community representatives and local functionaries after performing the ground-breaking ceremony for a new school, Verma said the cow shelter would be developed over an approximately 20-acre plot. “It will feature modern infrastructure including automated fodder distribution systems, solar power integration, rainwater harvesting setups and on-site veterinary care, ensuring that the cows are kept in a clean, safe and healthy environment.Special emphasis will be placed on the use of by-products for rural livelihood generation,” he said.The facility will include units for the production of organic manure and panchgavya-based products, supporting eco-friendly farming and encouraging traditional Indian agricultural methods.
