<\/span> Mr. Banshidhar Tiwari, IAS<\/p>\n<\/h2>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″]

Mussoorie Dehradun Development Authority area includes entire Dehradun District which covers Dehradun City, Mussoorie Municipal Area, Rishikesh Tehsil Area, Pachwa Doon and Parwa Doon, except Cantonment Area. The limits of this Development area coincides with the Dehradun district boundary in the north upto Buranskhanda, lower shivalik range in south and west and river Ganga in the east.

The Rishikesh Tehsil area also has been added to this Development Authority in the year 2019. The objective of this development authority is to provide planed and plenary development of the area under its jurisdiction.<\/span>
\nUrban issues are increasingly prominent on national policy agendas. Cities and metropolitan areas are major growth engines to national economies and play a key role as nodes in global markets. Moreover, at a time of deepening globalization and increasing international competition for investment, metropolitan regions have become the targets of a wide range of public interventions. As a result, urban development policies need to address a range of issues \u2013 from managing urban expansion and congestion to fostering competitiveness, innovation, social inclusion and environmental sustainability.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\t

More than half of the world\u2019s population now lives in cities. This share is projected to keep growing. Being a development authority, MDDA has lot of responsibilities towards different development issues in its jurisdiction.<\/span><\/p>\n

Key issues and trends are \u2013 Rapid urban population growth, High urban poverty level, Inadequate basic services, Environmental degradation.<\/span><\/p>\n

challenges include sustaining urban areas as engines of growth, managing urban growth, bridging supply and demand gap on infrastructure services, strengthening urban management capacity, to control haphazard development.<\/span><\/p>\n

MDDA is gearing up to take up all challenges. An overall approach is being adopted from policy to capacity building to use of advanced technologies to track progress in different domains like Illegal Constructions, Development Projects, Finance, Map approval, RTI, Grievances etc. Other major technology intervention is in the form of GIS based 2D master plan, Mobile App for site verification, SMS integration to inform the applicant status of their applications, Online payments for all services, dedicated portal to deliver all services online to the citizens etc etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

I appeal to the public of Dehradun and Mussoorie area, please do not go for any construction activity prior to approval from MDDA, distance yourself from any encroachment activity.<\/span><\/p>\n

has become first ISO Certified authority for stream lining its processes, also awarded with \u2018 Pride of India Award\u2019 under state PSU category for excellent work in Infrastructure development and Transportation.<\/span><\/p>\n
