Master Plan of Delhi (MPD) -2021 | 2001 | 1962

Experiences & Lessons

• Rapid population growth overshot plan projections by 15 lakh.
• Despite landuse controls, mixed land use in residential areas continued.
• Land was put to extensive use resulting in overshooting of envisaged densities.
• The plan did not propose integration of the informal sector leading to their exponential growth which outstripped infrastructural facilities.
• Proposal for shifting of non-conforming industrial units did not yield desired results.
