Indore (Madhya Pradesh): The Indore Development Authority’s board of governors, on Monday, gave administrative approval for Rs 1,207.39 crore infrastructure development works of five schemes proposed on about 1,700 acres.
These schemes include the new TPS-1 (Village Khajrana, 49.279 hectares, amount Rs 75.01 crore), TPS-3 (Village Talawali Chanda, Arandiya, Mayakhedi, 143.62 hectares, amount Rs 150.34 crore), TPS-4 (Village Nipania and Kanadiya, 87.497 hectares, amount Rs 129.05 crore), TPS-5 (Village Kanadiya, 146.731 hectares, amount Rs 201.94 crore) and TPS-8 (Village Bhaurasala, Kumedi and Bhagya, 273.353 hectares, amount Rs 851.05 crore).
“The approval doesn’t include external power development expenditure. With this approval, all-round development of Indore will get a new impetus,” a press release issued by the IDA said.
The meeting of the board of directors was chaired by the new chairman, Jaypal Singh Chawda. While collector Manish Singh, municipal commissioner Pratibha Pal, IDA CEO Vivek Shrotriya and others were also present.
About 8,500 plots allotted in favour of the housing cooperative societies are involved in various schemes of the IDA. Taking an important decision regarding renewal of the lease deeds, the landlords have been freed from the requirement of no-objection by the housing co-operative societies concerned. This will simplify the lease renewal and make the work of the landowners easier, the press release said.

5. The IDA board decided to get a 30-metre-wide and 1.7-kilometre-long cement concrete road connecting MR-4 to ISBT MR-10 with help from the IMC.
