Indraj directs PWD to make 5 yr infra, road development plan for Bawana

Delhi Government’s Social Welfare Minister Ravinder Indraj Singh directed the Public Works Department (PWD) to prepare a comprehensive five year action plan for road and infrastructure development in the Bawana region. Chairing a review meeting with PWD officials, he stressed that future projects must be planned strictly according to public needs and executed within timelines.

Indraj instructed officials to ensure that the next phase of works and required funds were approved without delay. He said timely approvals were crucial so that development work was not hindered and citizens did not face inconvenience due to incomplete projects.

During the meeting, the minister reviewed the status of major roads, including Badli–Bawana Road, Bawana–Auchandi Road, Auchandi–Tatesar Road and Bawana–Kanjhawala Road. PWD officials also presented new proposals worth Rs 23 crore, covering footpath construction near the JNV School, drains and footpaths in Auchandi village, a foot overbridge in Shahbad Dairy, and installation of jersey barriers on the Bawana–Kanjhawala stretch.

The minister assessed progress on road repairs, footpath restoration, drain desilting, installation of signage boards, anti-smog guns and water sprinklers. He emphasised the government’s commitment to providing safe and clean infrastructure to citizens, adding that improved roads and drains in Bawana would help reduce waterlogging, ease traffic flow and enhance residents’ quality of life.

Issuing further directions, he instructed the PWD to expedite safety marking with synthetic paint, deploy maintenance vans and ensure prompt debris removal. He also called for new directional signages and early completion of RCC drains near Maharshi Valmiki Hospital and in Punjab Khor village, along with installation of mist spray systems on poles.

Highlighting ongoing improvements, Indraj said, “Our goal is to make people’s daily lives easier and provide them with a modern, safe and clean environment.”
