Privatize DDA, MCD: Demand traders alleging both agencies of failing in ensuring structured development

New Delhi, Feb 19 (KNN) The Delhi traders have suggested the central government to privatize Delhi Development Authority (DDA) and Municipal Corporations of Delhi (MCD) alleging both the agencies have “failed” to deliver things on time.

The demand comes in the backdrop of sealing of commercial premises.

The apex body for traders in the country, CAIT, said failure of both DDA as a planner and MCD as an implementing agency has resulted in havoc for Delhi traders who are facing brunt of sealing.

The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) said it will soon submit a proposal in this regard in the larger interest of people of Delhi to Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, Union Urban Development Minister Hardeep Puri and Delhi LG Anil Baijal.

The deliberative wing of MCD should remain as it is and the executive wing should be handed over to private agencies whereas DDA should be privatised completely, it stated.

“In view of the dismal performance of DDA and MCD, which have failed to ensure structured development of Delhi in last 60 years and even after lapse of three Master Plans since 1962, it is suggested that both DDA and MCD must be privatised and handed over to professional agencies for carrying out responsibilities in a time bound manner,” said Praveen Khandelwal, CAIT secretary general.
