NDMC Launches First In-Society Park Project in Bharti Nagar, Eyes Model Colony

NDMC Vice Chairman Kuljeet Singh Chahal laid the foundation stone for the redevelopment of a park in Bharti Nagar, announcing it as the council's first comprehensive park project within a residential society. He stated the aim is to replicate this model in other areas and transform Bharti Nagar into a model colony. The project aligns with NDMC's broader infrastructure upgrade push, which included extensive beautification work ahead of the India AI Impact Summit 2026.

NDMC Vice Chairman lays foundation stone for park redevelopment in Bharti Nagar

NDMC Vice Chairman Kuljeet Singh Chahal lays foundation for first comprehensive park inside a residential society in Bharti Nagar, part of broader civic upgrades.

"Today we are going to construct NDMC's first comprehensive park in Bharti Nagar. - Kuljeet Singh Chahal"

New Delhi, March 24

New Delhi Municipal Council Vice Chairman Kuljeet Singh Chahal on Tuesday laid the foundation stone for the redevelopment of a park in Bharti Nagar, marking the launch of what he described as the civic body's first comprehensive park project within a residential society.

"Today we are going to construct NDMC's first comprehensive park in Bharti Nagar. This is our first inside society project, which we would like to take to other areas as well," Chahal told reporters here.

He further emphasised that efforts are underway to transform Bharti Nagar into a model colony in the near future. "We are making efforts so that Bharti Nagar becomes a model colony in the coming days," Chahal added.

The project comes amid NDMC's broader push to upgrade civic infrastructure and public spaces in the national capital. Notably, the civi body had earlier undertaken large-scale beautification and infrastructure upgrades across key areas of the city in preparation for the India AI Impact Summit 2026.

The global summit, held in February at Bharat Mandapam, brought together international delegates, policymakers and technology leaders, positioning India as a key player in shaping the global AI agenda.

In the run-up to the summit, NDMC carried out extensive work, including road repairs, improved lighting, sanitation drives, and enhancement of public spaces across major routes, tourist hubs, and diplomatic areas to present a world-class image of the capital.

A comprehensive and meticulously planned deep-cleaning drive, "Operation-Clean," was successfully introduced to achieve the proper sanitation and reduce the AQI. The mission was planned in all 14 circles of NDMC and started in the heart area of NDMC, i.e. Connaught Place.

The mission was aimed at enhancing civic hygiene, beautifying public spaces, and ensuring a cleaner and healthier environment for residents and visitors. The week-long intensive cleaning operation covered entire circles and involved a multi-departmental effort with close coordination among engineering, sanitation, horticulture, and health wings.

Great to see focus on local infrastructure. But I have a question - will this park have proper security and lighting? Many parks in Delhi become unsafe after dark. Also, hope they include some basic exercise equipment for adults.

While I appreciate the project, it's interesting how much effort was put in for the AI summit visitors. We need this level of cleanliness and beautification as a standard, not just for international events. Operation Clean should be a permanent mission.

As someone living in Delhi, green spaces are crucial for mental health and community bonding. Hope they use native plants that require less water and are sustainable. Looking forward to seeing the design!

Model colony sounds good on paper. But what about parking issues, waste management, and water supply? A park is nice, but comprehensive development needs to address these basic civic amenities first. Hope NDMC has a holistic plan.

This is wonderful! More parks mean less concrete, better air, and places for kids to play. My parents live in Bharti Nagar and they'll be so happy. Thank you for focusing on residential areas and not just tourist spots. 🙏
