DELHI URBAN ART COMMISSION with gratitude duly acknowledges the valuable contributions of the following in making this report:

Raj Rewal Former Chairman, DUAC The city of Delhi, capital of this vast land of diversities, is a city laden with layers of history, Satish Khanna Former Member, DUAC Eric P. Mall Former Member, DUAC a place where civilizations have lived, prospered and perished over centuries. The modern D. Diptivilasa Former Member DUAC & Addl. Secretary, Ministry of Urban Development city today, built over and around a rich tapestry of heritage, presents an opportunity at every turn, to allow for co-existence of the past, present and the future. In order to understand this multidimensional urban spectrum and attempt to plan the future, various Organisations/Others city level studies have been initiated by the DUAC. I hope that these studies will help Ministry of Urban Development, Government of India the planners of modern day Delhi to carefully articulate urban space, structure, form and Delhi Development Authority environment and sensitively address future requirements. Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi I convey my thanks to all the Consultants and Members of the Commission who have North Delhi Municipal Corporation tirelessly worked on this research project to bring out this document. I also take this East Delhi Municipal Corporation opportunity to place on record my sincere appreciation of the efforts of Secretary and South Delhi Municipal Corporation other staff of DUAC for providing the necessary administrative support to make this Municipal Council happen. Geospatial Delhi Limited I fondly hope that the authorities of the local, state and national government take these Rail Corporation studies seriously and implement, in right earnest, the suggestions given herein.

Adarsh Nagar ward is a mélange of urban typologies which vary from Azadpur Mandi viz. a heavy commercial development to Adarsh Nagar, an unauthorized regularized colony and Azadpur Village, an urban village. This interesting yet complex mix of typologies is currently very chaotic due to the varied activities going on in the parcels of land with an explosion of unchecked development. Also, the fact that the ward is located at a prime location in the city, means that it holds a lot of potential which needs to be unleashed in order to improve the quality of the urban fabric and lives of the users.

Various proposals have been prepared under the concept of Local Area Planning which could form a model for such future developments.

Adarsh Nagar Colony The colony is primarily a mixed-use development with heavy trafic movement owing to multiple activities on major roads. It is proposed to redensify the existing plots and develop compact neighbourhoods with a higher FAR. Simultaneously it is suggested to enhance the ROW to accommodate different users, i.e. pedestrians, NMVs and motorists. Also, large green areas which act as reliefs and social spaces are sculpted in the proposals.

Azadpur Village The village being an unplanned organic development, with new unsafe structures coming up, has become a challenge to deal with. It is proposed to redensify and redevelop the existing plots, yet keeping the inherent character of the village intact by rejuvenating certain spaces like chaupals or nodes which are much required social congregational spaces in any typical village. Open greens, which are interlinked by pedestrian trails, acting as lungs to any urban fabric have been carved out to induce life into the dead spaces. Also, self-sustainability at site level is suggested for better utilization of resources.

Azadpur Mandi MPD 2021 suggests relocating the existing Sabzi Mandi to decongest the existing area and reduce the pressure that it puts on prime land and infrastructure. The same is suggested with a view to relocate the Sabzi Mandi to the fringes of the city and retain and redevelop the fruit mandi as a sub-city level market. Another proposal suggests a change in land use on the existing Sabzi Mandi site with facilities like large open public spaces, schools and healthcare facilities which are lacking in the ward. Urban edges are opened up to uplift the existing dead character. Also, it is envisaged to interlink the three different entities, i.e. Mandi, Adarsh Nagar Colony and Azadpur Village via pedestrian trails which cross through various existing and proposed greens. This would result in a comprehensive and wholesome integration of the ward which is missing today. 8 ExIstINg CoNtExt CITY LEVEL PROJECT market) (wholesale trade Azadpur Mandi (urban village) Azadpur Village (unauthorized regularized colony) regularized (unauthorized NagarColony Adarsh Zonal Development PlanZoneC–Highlighted Area: Sub-zone C20 Zones ofDelhi Municipal wards ofDelhi zone C20.

Due to their proximity to residential areas, these markets need to be redeveloped to overcome the environmental and trafic problems. Also a 36-metre wide road (Arihant Marg) was added to decongest GT Road from heavy trafic caused due to the presence of a wholesale trade market (New Mandi).
