June 1, 2023: Delhi lieutenant-governor VK Saxena has approved the transfer of 1.11 acre (4,509 sqm) of land to the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) for the construction of Delhi’s new six-lane highway. Part of the Bharatmala Pariyojna, this under-development highway will run from the DND Maharani Bagh to a junction along the Jaitpur-Pusta Road section of the NH-148NA. It is part of an extension to link the Delhi Noida Direct (DND) Flyway to the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway.

The nine-km access-controlled highway is aimed at easing the traffic conditions for those who travel between Delhi and Noida and Faridabad. The land was transferred from the irrigation and flood control department. The NHAI had requested the transfer of this land parcel in January this year. The approval by the L-G has been granted subject to the condition that the NHAI will use the inert and construction and demolition (C&D) waste generated in Delhi at the location of its construction and beyond, apart from making the required payment for the land, according to media reports.
