South Delhi MP Ramvir Singh Bidhuri has said that ₹62,000 crore has been provided for development works across the parliamentary constituency, including roads, flyovers, sewerage, water pipelines, PNG infrastructure, metro connectivity, tunnels and an ecological park.
Bidhuri presented the account of works during a service campaign linked to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 25 years in public life. According to the report, he attributed the funding to Prime Minister Modi and Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and said several projects had either been completed or were moving towards completion.
The announcement covers a large range of urban services. Bidhuri said around ₹6,500 crore had been made available for underground reservoirs and sewer lines in South Delhi. The projects are intended to address water shortages in areas including Sangam Vihar, Chhatarpur and Badarpur, where new underground reservoirs are expected to be built soon.
The report also highlights an 885-acre ecological park in Badarpur. Bidhuri described it as Asia’s largest eco-park and said the site had previously been used as an ash dump. The supplied report does not provide details of the park’s operating agency, completion schedule, public access arrangements or maintenance plan.
Road infrastructure forms another major part of the stated development programme. Bidhuri said a six-lane highway had been built from Sarai Kale Khan towards Kalindi Kunj, Mithapur, Jaitpur and Sohna, connecting to the Mumbai–Vadodara Expressway. He placed the cost of this road work at ₹8,000 crore.
The report does not provide a project-wise breakdown of the ₹62,000 crore figure, including how much has already been spent, which agencies are executing individual works or how the announced amount is distributed between completed, ongoing and proposed projects. It also does not specify the status of the metro and tunnel works mentioned by the MP.
The funding and implementation details will be important for residents because the announcement spans infrastructure managed by different authorities and departments. Water supply, sewerage, roads, ecological restoration and mass transit generally involve separate planning, construction and maintenance responsibilities, but the supplied report does not identify the agencies responsible for each project.
The event was attended by local MLA Chandan Kumar Chaudhary, Bharatiya Janata Party South Delhi district president Maya Singh Bisht and media head S Rahul. Further details on project timelines, expenditure, tendering and monitoring were not included in the report.
