The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has initiated a phased demolition campaign at the Bhoomiheen Camp, which commenced last week and entails the removal of all structures from which jhuggi-jhopdi (JJ) inhabitants have relocated to their designated apartments. An official stated that a demolition had taken place in accordance with the Delhi Slum and Jhuggi Jhopri Rehabilitation and Relocation Policy, 2015 of the Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board, after proper notice had been given and public announcements had been made.
According to a statement from a DDA representative, out of the 2,891 households residing in the Bhoomiheen Camp JJ cluster, 1,862 met the necessary criteria outlined in DUSIB's policy for rehabilitation and relocation and were thus considered qualified to receive new apartments. Nevertheless, 1,029 households were deemed unqualified for relocation and granted the chance to submit an appeal to the appellate authority, which is composed of a retired district and sessions judge, according to the DDA. Individuals who have been deemed eligible by the higher judicial authority will be taken into consideration for the allocation of EWS apartments.
All of the 1,862 individuals living in the Bhoomiheen Camp who met the criteria have been assigned living spaces in the A-14 project located in Kalkaji Extension. According to officials, around 1,200 eligible residents of JJ colonies have successfully relocated to their assigned apartments so far. The plan entails rehabilitating qualified residents from JJ colonies situated next to the Bhoomiheen Camp by developing the land beneath the existing structures in order to keep them in their original location. According to officials, it is essential to quickly clear out the Bhoomiheen Camp to make room for the rehabilitation of two other JJ clusters that require adequate urban infrastructure and amenities.
DDA has developed affordable housing flats for economically weaker sections on a 10.75-hectare plot of land at a cost of Rs 345 crore at A-14 Kalkaji Extension. The aim is to relocate qualifying JJ residents from Bhoomiheen Camp to these new flats. The assigned flat was priced at around Rs 15 lakh, but the beneficiaries were required to pay Rs 1.1 lakh as their share of the cost. DDA informed that inhabitants not entitled to reside there have been advised to secure alternative lodging prior to the agency's commencement of efforts to regain possession of the illegally occupied land by Bhoomiheen Camp. The area is slated to be used for the purpose of aiding qualified residents from Navjeevan Camp and Jawaharlal Nehru Camp through rehabilitation efforts.
As per the guidelines set by the DDA, developers are required to build affordable housing units for the financially disadvantaged segment. Subsequently, they are permitted to recoup the expenses incurred by incorporating a profitable component, which accounts for 40 percent of the entire project.
