The Centre on Tuesday launched a new 'as is where is' regularisation policy aimed at easing registration and construction processes in Delhi's unauthorized colonies.

This revamped policy eliminates the layout plan requirement for existing buildings and transfers conveyance deed authority to the Delhi government's Revenue Department, a move expected to impact nearly 50 lakh residents positively.

The PM-UDAY portal will facilitate online applications from April 24. Accompanying this shift is a Transit Oriented Development policy to address traffic congestion and housing needs, enhancing Delhi's Masterplan 2021.
