The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) on Sunday (August 30, 2026) published a comprehensive set of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on its website to make the Master Plan for Delhi-2047 (MPD-2047) easier for citizens and stakeholders to understand and enable their active participation in the city’s development.

The directions to make the MPD-2047 more accessible to people came from Lieutenant-Governor Taranjit Singh Sandhu, who is also Chairperson of the DDA.

“The initiative reflects DDA’s commitment to making the implementation of the Master Plan a participatory and inclusive process, with greater awareness, dialogue and collective stakeholder engagement contributing towards building a more sustainable, connected, inclusive and future-ready Delhi,” the DDA said in a statement.

The DDA said that the FAQs provide citizens and stakeholders with simple, easily accessible information on the various provisions of the Plan and cover a wide spectrum of subjects, including general provisions, Development Control Norms, redevelopment, heritage and public spaces, Land Pooling Policy, Transit Oriented Development (TOD), High Density Corridors (HDC), Low Density Areas (LDA), and In-situ Slum Rehabilitation (ISR).

The FAQs also address several practical aspects of MPD-2047, including land use and permissible activities, Floor Area Ratio (FAR) and plot requirements, parking, Transferable Development Rights (TDR), eligibility and development models under Land Pooling, and eligibility, development norms and approval processes under TOD and other policies. The resource is intended to help citizens, landowners, professionals, developers, residents’ groups, and other stakeholders better understand the provisions and opportunities envisaged under the Master Plan. 

DDA has also introduced the “MPD-2047 (Feedback)” facility through its Citizen Services platform, enabling citizens and stakeholders to directly share their suggestions and feedback related to the Master Plan. The feedback facility gives citizens and stakeholders a direct way to share their views with DDA, supporting ongoing dialogue and a more participatory approach to the MPD-2047.

These digital initiatives run parallel to the DDA’s ongoing three-month stakeholder engagement programme, under which 20 meetings are scheduled on various aspects of MPD-2047. The engagement will bring together elected representatives, government agencies and service providers, industry bodies, architects and planners, residents’ and group housing representatives, farmers and landowners, and other concerned stakeholders.

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) plans to hold more than 20 meetings with stakeholders over the next three months to discuss the implementation of the Master Plan for Delhi-2047, it stated in an official statement on Sunday (August 23, 2026). 

The meetings will involve MPs and MLAs, government agencies, industry bodies, architects and planners. Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs), landowners, educational institutions and healthcare organisations will also participate. 

The DDA, acting on the directions of the Lieutenant-Governor, will discuss major provisions of the master plan, including transit-oriented development, high-density corridors, the land pooling policy and low-density areas. Meetings with RWAs, group housing societies and cooperative housing societies will also cover housing and redevelopment. 

Industry bodies and chambers will also be consulted on industrial development and the availability of land for industry. These include the Confederation of Indian Industry, Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry, PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India and Delhi State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation. 

Other meetings will focus on mobility and congestion, as well as the rejuvenation of the Yamuna and development of the blue-green network. 

Heritage conservation and redevelopment of commercial areas will also be discussed. Meetings are planned on education and medical hubs in sub-cities such as Narela and Dwarka. 

The DDA stated that the meetings would help translate the provisions of the Master Plan into projects and policies.
