Seeking to put an end to the harrowing experiences of residents of Delhi in obtaining building plan approvals, the Delhi Building Bye Laws of 1983 have been simplified, rationalized and updated under the directions of the Ministry of Urban Development. The Delhi Urban Arts Commission (DUAC) in association with Delhi Development Authority (DDA) and municipal bodies have completed the simplification exercise and submitted Draft Simplified Bye Laws to the Ministry of Urban Development. The Urban Development Minister Shri M.Venkaiah Naidu today directed DDA to notify them at the earliest.
