PM Modi Launches and Lays Foundation for ₹33,500 Crore Infrastructure Projects.

Narendra Modi recently inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for multiple development projects worth around ₹33,500 crore in New Delhi. He was also felicitated during the event.

Earlier in the day, the Prime Minister visited the GPRA Type-5 quarters in Sarojini Nagar and handed over keys to women allottees. The Government of India is redeveloping seven ageing government housing colonies in the capital through an innovative self-financing model that requires no public exchequer funding.

The redevelopment project covers Sarojini Nagar, Netaji Nagar, Nauroji Nagar, Kasturba Nagar, Thyagraj Nagar, Sriniwaspuri, and Mohammadpur, spread across about 537 acres. Officials noted that many existing quarters had become old and structurally unsafe, with nearly 40% declared uninhabitable, making redevelopment a priority for urban housing and safety.
