Draft Regional Plan 2041 may shrink NCR to 100km radius
The approval of the NCR Planning Committee’s 2041 draft regional plan aimed at focusing on the development of the NCR urban area, the National Capital Region may be reduced to a radius of 100 kilometers from Rajghat. NCR currently spreads to approximately 150-175 kilometers, covering entire regions and rural areas. However, with the approval of the regional plan 2041, the area beyond 100 kilometers is unlikely to become a major part of the NCR.
The detailed plan draft will soon be publicly solicited for suggestions and objections, and will be notified by the NCR Planning Committee thereafter. The linear corridor will grow to a radius of more than 100 kilometers up to the existing NCR boundary, paving the way for the development of areas within 1 kilometer of expressways, national highways and regional rapid transit systems. In addition, the decision to include or omit part of the tehsils located within 100 kilometers will be left to the respective state governments.
The 2021 regional plan provided on the NCRPB website identifies seven metro centers-Faridabad-Barabuga, Gurgaon-Manesar, Ghaziabad-Loni, Noida, Sonepat Kundry, Greater Noida and Mirut. In addition, it has identified 11 regional centers-Bahadurgah, Panipat, Rohtak, Palwal, Rewari-Dharuhera-Bawal, Hapur-Pilkhua, Bulandshahr-Khurja, Baghpat-Baraut, Alwar, Greater Bhiwadi, Shahjahanpur-Neemrana-Behror. Some areas and other areas of Gurgaon, Faridabad, Noida, Greater Noida and Mirut will remain part of the NCR because they are within a 100 km radius.
The draft regional plan for 2041 also paves the way for a future-ready, slum-free NCR equipped with air ambulance facilities and high-speed connections through helicopters, roads, railways, and inland waterways. The draft plan specifically promotes the 30-minute ultra-high-speed train connection between major cities in the NCR, and proposes to explore the feasibility of a 30-minute subway system (MTRS) from the nearest NCR border to Delhi.
