rnNoida authority has developed a number of green belts, gardens and parks to give further impetus to a pollution free environment and has set upon itself the task of making Noida a green haven, says A K Tiwary Noida, one of the largest planned industrial townships, is developing at a rapid clip. Noida is bound by NH-24 bypass to the North beyond which is Ghaziabad Development Area; to the East is the Hindon river, beyond which is Greater Noida Industrial Development Area; to the West is the Yamuna, beyond which are lie Delhi and Haryana, and to the South is the confluence of the Yamuna and the Hindon. Unlike many other industrial areas, infrastructural facilities in this area preceded its development. Noida authority has developed a number of green belts, gardens and parks to give further impetus to its pollution-free environment and has set upon itself the task of making Noida a green haven - it has even coined a slogan for the purpose, "Green Noida, Clean Noida". Now, work is on to free the city from the interminable traffic jams. Constituted under the UP Industrial Area Development Act, 1976, Noida has emerged as a planned, integrated, modern industrial city, well connected to Delhi through a network of roads, national highways and the ultra-modern DND flyover - it also offers inter-road linkages to all parts of the country. Spread over 20,316 hectares, with many sectors fully developed, Noida offers a pollution-free and high standard of living. The place is highly supportive of industrial enterprise with a unique infrastructure providing matchless facilities. Mohinder Singh, chairman and CEO of Noida Authority, says that Noida is the industrial fairyland of the nation, far from the dirt, grime and pollution of National Capital Region. Noida has been planned on the gridiron concept and employs state-of-the art technology in engineering, urban planning and architecture. Significantly, it conceptualizes needs of a fast developing city of the future. The action plan and approach compares well with international standards and is aimed at providing rapid momentum to growth of industrial sector, both in Uttar Pradesh and the rest of the country. "We are vowed to uninterrupted power supply in Noida. A number of power stations will be installed very soon," says Mohinder Singh. He also says drinking water supply is in abundance in Noida with 90 tube wells, 5 rainy wells, and 25 overhead tanks and 850km-long water pipeline network carry about 2 lakh kilolitres per day (KLD) drinking water per day, ensuring per capita availability of drinking water at 225 liters. In addition to this, the 49,400 KLD Ganga water project has already started. Plans are also afoot to make use of rainwater by means of modern indigenous technology to supplement availability of water to meet future requirements. rnAs far as basic infrastructure is concerned, Noida roads are smooth and wide and help in movement of traffic with ease and comfort. NH-2, Link Road, Kondli Road, Noida-Greater Noida Expressway, Noida-Agra-Mathura Expressway (under construction) and eight-lane DND flyover with a toll bridge (already operational), further provide ease and comfort in traffic movement into and out of the city. The DND flyover with toll bridge is a unique project. Noida authority is maintaining 400km in different sectors of the city. Long internal roads and 125km-long boundary roads make intra-city road traffic much smoother and comfortable. With a view to keeping the city green and clean and to maintain ecological balance in Noida, a project to develop parks in 165 acres of the land comprising 95 acres green belt and 150km roadside tree rnplantations is on the anvil. Two sewage treatment plants are also in final stages of construction and ought to be operational soon. These two plants, when operational, are planned to produce 7 crore liters of water per day and are intended to irrigate the green belt areas and parks in the various sectors of Noida. Help will also be extended to create an underground water supply facility, and there is also a project to supply water at cheaper rates for irrigation purpose. Mohinder Singh says that about 35.66 % area or 4,49,456 sq meter of land has been earmarked in Noida for residential purposes while the rest is meant for group-housing projects. For the working class, engineers and employees of different establishments, a project is being introduced, which will involve construction of 31,035 residential units in duplex, HIG, MIG, LIG and EWS categories. For sheltering those below poverty line, under the "Shramik Kunj" project, 4,952 one-room set houses have been constructed. Plans are also afoot to develop a senior citizens' residential complex. Noida has earmarked 7, 10,000 sq meter land for different industries last year. There are 6,014 manufacturing units here. With an investment of about Rs 12,710 crore rupees, these industries provide employment to over 94,736 people. To help establish industries, many industry-friendly and simplified measures have been introduced. As a result, now building plans conforming to bylaws need not wait for approval construction. Non-interested entrepreneurs can exercise the option of post-allotment "surrender without tears". The requirement of seeking permission for mortgaging "fully paid" industrial plots, have been done away with. At the time of transfer of industrial property, the requirement of getting clearance certificate from other departments of UP government has been removed. The Noida Software Technology Park (STP) ranks second in the country in terms of export turnover and the Infotech Park (ITP) on 100 acres with state-of-the-art infrastructure housing about 152-200 units, have turned Noida into an IT hub. Noida Export Processing Zone (NEPZ), a 100% export oriented unit, has acquired and developed over 5,888 hectares of land until now. During the current rnyear, three residential sectors and two industrial sectors have been developed. In the decade ahead, 3,400 hectares of land will be acquired and developed, out of which 430 hectares have been earmarked for residential, 620 hectares for commercial, 650 hectares for industrial and 200 hectares for institutional purposes. Another 300 hectares of land have been earmarked for development for recreational purpose, which will include an entertainment park and a centre for musical and cultural activities. Another 125 hectares of land will be utilized for creation of road transport facilities, including a bus terminal. rnCourtesy: - Times Property DT: - 06-02-2009 More Information of: -- Real Estate,Real Estate India, Real Estate Gurgaon, Real Estate ApartmentsrnLog on: --- http://www.zameen-zaidad.comrn & http://www.propertycafeteria.com/main.aspx
