Haryana Minister for Department of Public Works (Buildings and Roads) Rao Narbir Singh today stressed on the need to constitute a separate Gurgaon Development Authority, keeping in view the rapid urbanisation in the NCR.
There is a need to constitute a separate Gurgaon Development Authority on the pattern of Delhi Development Authority (DDA) and Greater Noida Development Authority, he said.
He said Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA), which was responsible for maintaining all the cities in the state, was unable to properly maintain the sectors in Gurgaon.
He said more than 250 units of renowned multi-national companies are operating in Gurgaon and over 120 sectors have been formed by HUDA. Still, there is need for a separate development authority to manage the rapid urbanisation taking place here, he said.
Apart from this, the number of sectors in Faridabad and other cities included in the NCR have also increased significantly, he said in an official release.
