The three government residential colonies which will be redeveloped by NBCC are Sarojini Nagar, Netaji Nagar and Nauroji Nagar.
Central Public Works Department will redevelop the other four residential colonies in New Delhi.
There will be a total expenditure of Rs 32,835 crore which we are investing in dwelling units. After reconstruction, renovation and fresh construction, they could be increased from the present 12,970 to 25,667 dwelling units.
