Delhi slum rehab: How Bill in Assembly may bring more settlements into redevelopment net

The Delhi government is set to enhance rehabilitation efforts for jhuggi-jhopri settlements by shifting the eligibility cut-off date from 2006 to 2025, enabling additional clusters to qualify. This regulation encourages private firms and cooperatives to engage in redevelopment initiatives, while the Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board oversees the relocation and upgrading processes. Residents may also have a chance to financially support their new housing costs.
