[h=1]Daily nightmare: Traffic goes bananas on Najafgarh Road[/h] [URL="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/toireporter/author-Somreet-Bhattacharya-479223358.cms"]Somreet Bhattacharya[/URL]| TNN | Feb 23, 2018, 03:11 IST [IMG]https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/thumb/msid-63036139,width-400,resizemode-4/63036139.jpg[/IMG]Last year, PWD had roped in consultants for a detailed plan to decongest the stretch.

It's a stretch of [URL="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Najafgarh-Road"]Najafgarh Road[/URL] between [URL="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Uttam-Nagar"]Uttam Nagar[/URL]and [URL="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Tilak-Nagar"]Tilak Nagar[/URL], a [URL="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/arihant-multi-commercial-ltd/stocks/companyid-3912.cms"]lifeline[/URL] of [URL="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/west-Delhi"]west Delhi[/URL]. Half the width of the road has been taken up by haphazardly placed carts of fruit vendors with vehicles parked behind them. This means a constant stream of customers who stop by on their vehicles. These people, other commuters and e-rickshaw and Grameen Sewa vehicles occupy another lane. This leaves barely one lane for the traffic to pass. No wonder, this stretch is a nightmare for drivers through the day. [IMG]https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/img/63035309/Master.jpg[/IMG] Residents say that mushrooming of coaching centres between Nawada and Janak Place in the past five years — there are almost 300 — has compounded the problem as thousands of students from all over west Delhi leave their two-wheelers on the road. Last year, PWD had roped in consultants to prepare a detailed plan to decongest this stretch. The police had closed some cuts that were used for U-turns between Uttam Nagar and Dwarka Mor. The barricades were soon removed by e-rickshaw and Grameen Sewa operators for quick turnarounds after dropping passengers. The 8-km stretch has five Delhi Metro vomitories, emptying onto the main road. This reduces the four-lane road into a one-and-a half lane one for almost 5-6 km. "We remove improperly parked vehicles under anti-encroachment drives in 28 corridors regularly. We have appealed to the civic bodies to identify some of the stretches to conduct concerted drives to remove temporary markets and other structures to free up space for vehicle movement," says Garima Bhatnagar, joint commissioner, traffic. This stretch has seven DTC routes and is the only road that connects Dwarka to the rest of west Delhi. According to the traffic police, almost 7-8 lakh vehicles — including DTC buses — ply on this route. Traffic remains heavy through the day with bottlenecks starting to form around Uttam Nagar, Tilak Nagar and Janakpuri due to haphazard parking of e-rickshaws and Grameen Sewa vehicles. "They stop or park anywhere to pick passengers and there are thousands of them plying on the route. The handful of traffic policemen deployed here can do little to stop them," says Sanjay Gupta, secretary of a traders' association near Uttam Nagar. "Then there are the RTVs plying between Janakpuri and Najafgarh. These drivers too do not follow any norms. We have appealed to successive MLAs, traffic police and municipal councillors to regulate their movement but to no avail." [h=2]Prashant Shukla, a member of a traders association at Janak Place market, says small eateries along the road are also responsible for the mess. "At any given time, there are atleast 200 scooters or motorcycles parked near the Uttam Nagar West and Janak Place metro station. Last year, after we appealed to the traffic police, some drives were conducted to remove these vehicles but little has been done to control the mafia that is behind all this here," says Shukla.[/h] The traffic police has now moved a proposal to start a joint drive involving the local police, civic bodies and traffic police to remove encroachments along the entire Najafgarh Road, from Moti Nagar to Najafgarh.

[B]RWAs meet Puri with plea to 'save' city[/B] TNN | Feb 24, 2018, 02:48 IST [IMG]https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/thumb/msid-63050821,width-400,resizemode-4/63050821.jpg[/IMG]The sealing activity has picked up pace again. NEW DELHI: On Friday, 108 properties were sealed by the three corporations during the drive being conducted on the directions of Supreme Court-empowered monitoring committee. Meanwhile, a group of resident welfare associations running the 'save our city' campaign met Union urban development minister [URL="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Hardeep-Puri"]Hardeep Puri[/URL] to brief him about the concerns of the residents about the proposed amendments to the Delhi Master Plan 2021. "The minister was aware of our concerns and were appreciative of our queries. He assured us that our concerns will be addressed, but a balance will be struck. Care will be taken so that decisions can stand legal scrutiny without causing unrest for any section," Regimon CK, who heads the Dwarka forum said. "Puri assured us that there will be no relaxation on parking norms as Delhi can't afford to be grid locked. Our suggestion on geo-satellite survey and tallying tax records and our concern for residential peace was well taken," said Rajiv Kakria, from GK-1 RWA, also a prominent member of 'save our city'. The copy of the joint resolution and key demands of the RWAs, which TOI had reported earlier, was handed over to Puri. Earlier, in the day the [URL="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/North-Delhi-Municipal-Corporation"]North Delhi Municipal Corporation[/URL] sealed 42 units — 14 of which were located in sector-8 Rohini, 10 in Mukherjee Nagar, 9 in [URL="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Karol-Bagh-zone"]Karol Bagh zone[/URL] and 8 on Roshanara Road. One unit was sealed in Lok vihar of Keshavpuram zone. The south corporation sealed 16 units. "As per directions of the monitoring committee sealing action was taken in [URL="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Panjabi-Bagh"]Panjabi Bagh[/URL] Extension and various blocks of Janak Puri for ongoing commercial activities in the stilt area of the properties.

Calling it a success in terms of improving air quality and gathering information, [URL="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Union-environment-minister-Dr-Harsh-Vardhan"]Union environment minister Dr Harsh Vardhan[/URL] said that the campaign will be replicated across 100 non-attainment cities in the future. The minister said that the air quality during this period in 2018 had been better as compared to the same period in 2016 and 2017 with it improving from 'very poor' when the campaign began and reaching 'moderate' even. "The air quality never went back to 'very poor' category after February 12 and we even had several days of moderate air quality," Vardhan said, adding that comparative data for the months of February and March in 2016, 2017 and 2018 will be collated and compared as well.

[h=1]DDA meet set to okay master plan tweaks[/h] TNN | Updated: Feb 24, 2018, 03:19 IST [IMG]https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/thumb/msid-63050869,width-400,resizemode-4/63050869.jpg[/IMG]Delhi lieutenant governor Anil Baijal.

Gupta said that the he was hopeful of a positive outcome. [h=2]Even as many RWAs objected to the proposals made at the last meeting of the land-owning agency, Gupta said that the board has kept in mind and given due importance to views of everyone, including RWAs, shop owners and other stakeholders.[/h] Without elaborating on the final recommendations made by the board, Gupta said that the amendments proposed in the earlier DDA meeting have been kept in the recommendations.

A Bench headed by judicial member Jawad Rahim had on Thursday directed the two States to take measures to check pollution levels in the water reaching Delhi from Haryana. [B]River ecosystem[/B] "Though the issue is with regard to high levels of ammonia in the water reaching the Delhi Jal Board reservoir but if you take the entire river ecosystem, the pollution level in the portion of the river passing Delhi also needs to be properly checked," said the Bench. The green panel further directed the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) to monitor the entire process. "The CPCB and Delhi Pollution Control Committee [DPCC] shall be involved to ensure that erring industries or local bodies and other parties who are causing pollution are dealt with appropriately, and to check the pollution level," the Bench said, observing that the report submitted by the CPCB was incorrect and directed the body to "recheck" the report. The NGT had on February 16 had directed Delhi and Haryana to convene a meeting and resolve the matter pertaining to polluted water which was allegedly provided by Haryana to the Capital.

[h=1]Clean air drive: 3,000 challans issued[/h] [URL="http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-newdelhi/clean-air-drive-3000-challans-issued/article22840819.ece#"][IMG]http://www.thehindu.com/static/theme/default/base/img/author-deafault.png[/IMG][/URL][URL="http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-newdelhi/clean-air-drive-3000-challans-issued/article22840819.ece#"]SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT[/URL] NEW DELHI, FEBRUARY 24, 2018 00:00 IST UPDATED: FEBRUARY 24, 2018 03:43 IST [h=2]Fortnight-long initiative was launched by Vardhan, Kejriwal on February 10[/h] The 'Clean Air for Delhi' campaign saw nearly 7,000 environmental violations and about 3,000 challans issued for a range of infractions, ranging from open burning of waste, construction and road dust violations, vehicular pollution, and 635 cases of traffic congestion. The campaign was launched jointly by Union Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on February 10 to find a permanent solution to the problem of pollution in Delhi and the National Capital Region. Roughly Rs. 9 crore was collected in fines as part of the drive, said Dr. Vardhan. "The aim was not really to impose heavy fines but rather to get officials from State and the Central governments to implement a system that can curb pollution through the year," he said at press conference to mark the end of the fortnight-long campaign. Nearly 3,000 of these violations were due to construction and road dust violations. Seventy teams comprising officials from the Union Environment Ministry and the Delhi government went around the city to observe various instances of pollution. He said the drive had translated into reduced pollution. "In the days during the campaign, there hasn't been a day when air quality slipped into the 'very poor category.' I am not saying it is entirely due to the campaign but it has played a role." The campaign will now be extended to 100 top-polluted cities across India, where air quality is below standards, Dr. Vardhan said, adding that there will be drives organised around winter, when the problem of pollution peaks, because a system was in place. [B]Target fixed[/B] The Ministry has a fixed target to cut air pollution in these cities by 50% over five years. The government has commissioned a study via the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) to evaluate the sources of pollution in Delhi and is expected to be available by the end of March, said CPCB Chairman S.P. Parihar. While Ministry claimed there was improvement in air quality during the campaign, it will now hold talks with States to focus on region-specific environmental issues.
