3 BHK House/Villa for Rent in Narendra Nagar Nagpur

According to data released by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, 10,000 km of highways have been constructed in the country in last fiscal year (2017-18) that ended March 2018. This has taken the daily average of road construction to 28 km per day against the average of 11 km in FY 2014. The number achieved is the highest so far.

Days after it came to light that only eight per cent of housing units have been completed nearly three years after the launch of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana-Urban (PMAY-U), the government has come up with a correction. According to a government release posted on March 23, while 3.5 lakh houses have been completed under the scheme, the foundation stone has been laid for another 18.47 lakh units. The government plans to build 40.65 lakh homes under the scheme.

In a move that would certainly speed up the construction process, the government is planning to mellow environmental regulations to push affordable housing projects. In a draft notification issued in mid-March, the environment ministry has proposed that projects spread in an area of 50,000 square metre (sqm) would not require green clearance. Under the existing rules, projects with a built-up area of up to 20,000 sqm do not have to apply for green clearance.

When the plan gets implemented, all stations would have elevated decks to give more space to passengers. These decks would have ticket-booking offices, foot-over-bridges and skywalks, leading to the platforms. At present, only the Andheri and the Goregaon stations have elevated decks.

The National Capital Region Transport Corporation is planning to link the Delhi Metro with high-speed railway network that will bring down the travel time between the national capital and the cities that fall under the NCR. The project, which is estimated to cost Rs 1 lakh crore, is expected to cater to over 20 lakh commuters daily. The completion deadline for the project is yet to be finalised.
