Delhi launches 49 projects in Mundka, approves Rs 454 crore corridor

Delhi has announced a set of infrastructure initiatives covering local civic upgrades in Mundka and a large-scale corridor project along the Najafgarh drain.

On February 24, 2026, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta laid the foundation stone for 49 development projects worth Rs 264 crore in Mundka.

The projects focus on improving road connectivity, water supply and sewerage systems, addressing multiple local infrastructure requirements in the area, reported The Times of India.

Officials said the works are aimed at extending urban-level infrastructure and services to rural and peripheral parts of the capital, as part of efforts to strengthen civic systems and support planned development in outer Delhi.

In a separate development, a Rs 454 crore project has been approved to build a 61 km road corridor along both sides of the Najafgarh drain.

The proposed corridor will include walking, jogging and cycling tracks, along with improvements to drainage systems and installation of street lighting along the route.

Officials said the project is designed to improve connectivity while also creating additional public space for pedestrians and cyclists.

Construction is expected to begin in May 2026, with completion targeted for November 2027.

The corridor is aimed at easing congestion and improving movement across several parts of the city.
