BASELINE REPORT
1. BACKGROUND AND CONTEXT
This chapter elaborates on the baseline preparation of the baseline preparation for the Physical
infrastructure sector. The physical infrastructure addresses seven sub-sectors:
 Water
 Sewerage and Drainage
 Solid Waste
 Power
 Gas
 Telecommunication/IT
 Disaster Management
1.1. Objective of the baseline preparation:
The baseline for the physical infrastructure sector sought to answer a number of crucial questions that will
inform the overall strategy for the physical infrastructure in Delhi for the planning horizon (2021-2041).
Following are the key questions under each sub-sector that were targeted during the baseline preparation:
1. Water
a. What is the per capita water supplied to the citizens? How does this vary spatially?
b. What is the spatial disaggregated status of piped water supply?
c. How is water supplied in areas that are not covered by piped water supply?
d. What are the sources of water? Can these sources be relied on for sustainable supply until 2041?
2. Sewerage and Drainage
a. Is the existing wastewater infrastructure adequate to manage the current and expected loading?
b. What is the status of wastewater reuse in the city? Where is it used? How much is used?
c. Is the current drainage network addressing the flooding risk satisfactorily? If not, what are the
shortcomings?
d. Which are the areas that are prone to flooding consistently?
e. Is climate change likely to aggravate the flooding risk in Delhi? If so, how robust is the drainage
network to handle risk?
3. Solid Waste
a. Are there adequate facilities to manage the current and expected solid waste in the city?
b. Do present policies/DCRs support efforts towards sustainable waste management?
4. Power
a. Do the citizens have access to reliable and uninterrupted power supply?
b. How robust is the current power infrastructure in meeting the current and future power
demand?
c. What is the share of renewable energy in power supply? Where is it generated? Where is it used?
5. Telecommunication
a. What is the existing status with respect to telecommunication infrastructure?
b. What are the major technological changes happening and how will it impact the provisioning of
physical infrastructure?
6. Gas
a. What is the extent of coverage with respect to gas infrastructure in Delhi?
b. What are the existing challenges with respect to gas infrastructure in Delhi?
7. Disaster and Risk Management
a. What are the type of disasters that Delhi is vulnerable to?
b. What is the level of vulnerability Delhi faces?
c. What are the existing institutions and mechanisms in place to mitigate risks and disasters in
Delhi?

BASELINE REPORT
1.2. Methodology adopted for the baseline preparation
Two avenues were employed in order to carry out the baselining exercise.
1. Data collection: An exhaustive data collection exercise was undertaken to quantify the baseline.
In addition to referring to website and published report, a Baselining Expert Group (BG)
comprising of senior officers from physical infrastructure government agencies in Delhi was also
formed. The BG members helped facilitate data access from their respective agencies and
provided strategic advice for the baselining activity. Dr. Shyamala Mani (former professor-NIUA),
Mr. Radheshyam Tyagi (former member-WS, DJB), and Mr. Pankaj Batra (former-Chairperson
(I/c) & member -Planning, Central Electricity Authority) were engaged as the Sector Advisors to
provide expert and technical guidance for the preparation of the baseline.
2. Interaction with Subject Experts: There are number of national and international experts who
have worked extensively on different aspects of the physical infrastructure. Efforts were made
to engage with some of these experts to enhance the quality of the baseline preparation.
‘Annexure 1’ has the details of the methodology adopted for the baseline preparation.

2. REVIEW OF THE PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE CHAPATER OF MPD-2021
2.1. Thematic Review
The review was conducted by the sector advisors and experts from NIUA. Table 1 presents the highlights of the review.

draft policy. Similarly, the Water Master Plan 2021 prepared by JICA is pending
approval. Both these documents have been prepared after exhaustive technical
studies coupled with a prolonged period of stakeholder discussions and
consultations.
3. Similarly, there are a number of recent national policies and missions (e.g. Swachh
Bharat Mission; Jal Shakti Abhiyaan; Swachh Surekshan, etc.) can help develop
robust strategies for the infrastructure sub-sectors.
4. Delhi Water Policy in line with National Water Policy may be considered in MPD
2041. Also The Water Master Plan 2041 by JICA (though it has not yet been
approved by DJB) but all future projects are being implemented as per this Master
Plan. So relevant recommendations it can be captured.

of-the-art technology in these domains (without specifying products) and recommend
testing the applications of identified technologies in Delhi’s context.

recently launched Rules that can be mentioned. For example, the SWM Rules 2016, in
schedule 4, describe the compost standards. Similarly, standards for plastics recycling
are in the Plastic Waste Management Rules 2016. Other Rules include C&D Waste
Management Rules 2016, E-Waste Rules 2016, Bio-medical Waste Management Rules
2016, and Hazardous and Other Wastes (Management and Transboundary Movement)
Rules, 2016. There are also CPCB guidelines, CPHEEO manuals and several advisories and
guidelines that describe how the various streams of waste are to be segregated at
source, stored, collected and transported as separated waste, treated appropriately,
reused and recycled to the maximum as such to ensure only a small amount (5-10%) goes
to landfills.
• For the Power sub-sector, norms of space for sub-stations, underground and surface
distribution transformers, islanding schemes, right-of-way norms/requirements for
overhead line and underground cables need to be covered. In addition, norms and
standards for safety also need to be mentioned.
• For renewable energy, in addition to the norms mentioned in MPD-2021, there are also
guidelines issued by CEA for rooftop Photo Voltaic plants and electric vehicle charging
stations and energy storage that could complement.
• In all future Housing development projects, DDA must adopt dual pipeline system for
using treated effluent in non-drinking needs.

buildings, the building code should prescribe hollow walls, use of LED lighting, light
sensors, smart meters with time-of-use and demand response regulations.
7. A possible recommendation in context of the Power sub-sector is mixed land use to even
the demand curve that will result in better utilization of transmission and distribution
infrastructure. However, the scenarios of mixed land use will have to be investigated in
context of other elements of the Master Plan as well.
8. A robust plan for implementation needs to be set up and mentioned in the MPD itself.

3. STATE OF KNOWLEDGE ON PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

3.1 Water
3.1.1 Overview
The water supply and distribution in Delhi is largely managed by the Delhi Jal Board (DJB), which
covers almost all areas of Delhi. The only exceptions are the areas under the New Delhi Municipal
Council (NDMC) and Delhi Cantonment. In these areas, DJB supplies the water in bulk while NDMC
and Delhi Cantonment manage the distribution themselves. In areas not covered by the
distribution system, DJB provides water through tanker service. However, as per Service Level
Benchmarks (SLBs) by MoHUA, water supplied through tankers, stand posts or tube wells is not
considered as coverage of water. SDG 6 also does not consider un-piped supply as Safe1 drinking
water. Water in Delhi comes from five different sources to eleven WTPs, from where it is supplied
to each WTP command area as shown in Figure 1.

BASELINE REPORT
3.1.2 Water availability and demand

Based on the available sources, Delhi’s water production capacity is 910 MGD2. The demand in 2018,
at 60 GPCD, was estimated as 1,140 MGD. There is, therefore, a deficit of 240 MGD. As per the DJB
projections, the water demand is likely to increase to 1,380 MGD by 2021 (with a projected population
of 23 Million). Unless adequate measures are taken to boost the production capacity (either through
supply-side or demand-side management), the deficit between demand and supply in only going to
increase. The major source of raw surface water for Delhi are Yamuna, BBMB, Ganga Rivers, and water
from Haryana as presented in Table 3. Apart from this DJB also takes water from 2,760 Ranney
wells/tube well in the Yamuna flood plain.

4 Recycled Water 49
Total 910
(Source: DJB Action plan 2018-19)
DJB is mandated to serve water to both planned and unplanned areas, and therefore, currently
provides piped water to 1337 unauthorized/regularized colonies. However, 129 additional
colonies will be notified for piped supply by the end of this year. Ground water, which was a major
source of water in the past, is no longer seen as a viable source. This is because of the
indiscriminate trend and nature of abstraction. Annexure 2 presents the status of the depth to
the groundwater across Delhi for both pre- and post-monsoons. It can be gleaned that for most
part of Delhi (especially the South) the depth of groundwater is in excess of 10 m, indicating the
severity of the problem. For other areas in the North, the depth varies from 2 to 10 meters.

Water is received from the Yamuna River & Bhakra Nangal Dam through Delhi branch of Western
Yamuna Canal and directed to seven WTPs (Wazirabad, Chandrawal, Haiderpur, Nangloi, Bawana,
Dwarka & Okhla). The water from River Ganga is supplied through Ganga Canal to the Bhagirathi
& Sonia Vihar water treatment plants. Ranney wells are installed in Yamuna Flood Plains and
tubewells in the colonies. Figure 2 presents details about the trend of capacity development4 of
the WTPs.

Water from the 11 WTPs/ground water sources (Annexure 3) is stored in Under Ground Reservoirs
(UGRs) before it is put into the distribution system. Delhi has 112 UGRs, each having a
corresponding command area. Water from the UGRs is then supplied to Source: JICA (2011) through

Non-revenue Water (NRW) in Delhi has two components6—Physical water losses; and unbilled
authorized consumption. Table 5 provides more details of these components. As per the DJB (JICA
2011), the NRW in Delhi is 47%. Given that the pipe network is medium aged (75% of the network
has been installed after the year 2000), unbilled authorized consumption forms a significant
portion of the NRW in addition to illegal connections. This view is corroborated by the fact that
here are 22.45 Lakh connections at present including bulk consumers. However, out of these, only
14.62 lakh (63%) connections have working meters.

Map 3 shows the per capita water distribution in the different water supply zones of Delhi. The
SLB recommends a minimum supply of 135 lpcd for sewered areas. This criteria is matched only
in areas under the South Delhi and New Delhi supply zones. In some areas the per capita supply is
grossly insufficient (e.g. Mehrauli and Narela), while in many areas it is grossly exorbitant (NDMC,
Cantonment, Karol Bagh, Civil lines and Rohini).

3.2 Sewerage and Drainage

3.2.1 Overview
The sewerage sector in Delhi is also managed by DJB. It is responsible for the entire value chain of
the sanitation network that includes collection, treatment and disposal of wastewater. The total
wastewater generated in Delhi is 720 MGD. DJB has 20 STPs (Annexure 4) with overall treatment
capacity of 617 MGD. However, even the treatment capacity of 617 MGD capacity is not fully
utilised as only 458.75 MGD of waste water actually gets treated. Hence, waste water treatment
capacity utilisation is about 75%.
3.2.2 Wastewater management

In Delhi, there are two types of wastewater management systems. The first is managed by DJB
and involves the collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of wastewater via a sewage
distribution network system. The second is onsite sanitation system in the form of septic tanks.
While this system is largely prevalent in the peripheral areas of Delhi, it is also found in area where
the sewage network already exists.
The length of network of branch, peripheral sewers is about 8,1007 km. while there is a network
of 200 km of trunk sewers with 58 pumping stations. Approximately 45% of Delhi is not covered
by sewerage system and the sewage generated from the remaining population is going through a
number of surface drains into the river. Apart from the planned areas DJB is extending the services
of sanitation through sewer lines in 15958 unauthorised colonies of Delhi. The sewer line facility

has been provided to 345 unauthorized colonies while sewer line works are in progress in 355.
The sewer work is in tender stage in 153 colonies, whereas in 742 colonies proposals are at
estimate stage. Resettlement colonies are also covered through sewerage network as seen in
Figure 5.

In addition to domestic wastewater, Delhi produces around 40 MGD of industrial wastewater9.

This is typically characterized by presence of acids, alkalis, toxic metals, oil, grease, dyes,
pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) compounds, lubricants, etc. The pollutants unloaded
into the drains usually dissolve or remain suspended in water. Sometimes, they also accumulate
on the bottom of the drains. 13 functional Common Effluent Treatment Plants (CETPs) have been
set up for 17 industrial areas in Delhi. Details of these can be found in Annexure 5. Map 4 shows
the location of the major sewerage-related infrastructure for the city.

3.2.3 Reuse of treated effluent

As per MoHUA guidelines benchmark for reuse and recycling of Waste Water is 20% (SLB for Urban
water and Sanitation) however in case of Delhi only 12% of total waste water generated is reused (i.e.
out of 720 MGD, only 89 MLD10 is reused).
3.2.4 Drainage
There are around 130011 drains in Delhi, covering 1700 kms. A thousand small storm drains flow
into 22 main drains- a large part of these drains carrying a mix of affluent and untreated sewage.
Delhi has been demarcated into six drainage zones namely. Delhi is demarcated into three basins
and six drainage zones12 as shown in Map 6. These zones are (i) North Zone, (ii) West Zone, (iii)
Central North West and South East Zone, (iv) Central South and South East Zone, (v) East Zone,
and (vi) South Zone. Map 5 and Map 6 respectively shows the major drains and Catchment basins

therefore is widely perceived to be sluggish. Water logging is a frequent occurrence in the NCT of
Delhi. Map 8 show the 162 water logging locations reported by traffic police and PWD. The final
disposal of majority of the storm water generated from Delhi is into river Yamuna through outfall
points distributed across various sites along its course through Delhi. Figure 6 shows the annual

3.3 Solid Waste

3.3.1 Overview
Delhi is among the largest
producers of the waste14 in
the country, as seen in
Figure 7. It produces 10,500
tonnes per day of municipal
solid waste, which is
projected to rise to 17,000–
25,000 tonnes per day by
the year 2021. Figure 8
shows the projected
trend15 of solid waste for
Delhi.
The solid waste

management in Delhi is the
responsibility of the urban
local bodies—EDMC,
NDMC, SDMC, New Delhi
MC, and Cantonment
Board. The ULBs have
outsourced the collection
and transportation of
waste to private vendors,
and manage the treatment
and disposal themselves.

3.3.2 Solid waste management system in Delhi

The trend of solid waste generation in Delhi has been on the rise for the last several years,
and is expected to continue in the future under the business as usual scenario. The
management of solid in Delhi is under the jurisdiction of the municipal bodies. The municipal
bodies have categorized Delhi into 12 zones for solid waste management: City Zone namely:
City Zone, Central Zone, South Zone, Karol Bagh Zone, Sadar Pahar Ganj, West Zone, Civil Lines
Zone, Shahdra South Zone, Shahdra North Zone, Narela Zone, Najafgarh Zone, Rohini Zone.
Figure 8: Trend of solid waste generation

The composition of municipal solid waste16 in Delhi is largely biodegradable (38.6%)

suggesting good potential for composting, as gleaned from Figure 9. A good proportion of the
waste is in the form of inert material, which cannot be processed and, hence, has to be sent
to landfills.

and by sending it to landfill sites. Approximately 55% of the total generated waste is processed
through Waste to Energy and Waste to Compost plants and rest is dumped in 3 Sanitary Landfill
Sites (SLFs). About 70–80% of the generated MSW is collected, while the rest remains unattended
to on streets or in small open dumps. Table 6 gives the details of the various solid waste
infrastructure facilities17 available in Delhi.
Detailed information about each of these waste management facilities can be found in Annexure

3.3.4 Solid waste management efficiency

Waste segregation is at the heart of an effective solid waste management system. Table 8 shows
the current status of waste segregation for each of the municipal bodies. It can be observed that
there is hardly any segregation done in most part of Delhi. The practice is only followed in areas
under the New Delhi Municipal Council and Cantonment Board. Even here, the efficiency is less
than 70%. The efficiencies are calculated considering the extent of waste managed through
various techniques and the proportion of the waste generated sent to the landfill sites, Map10
presents a comprehensive status of the waste management efficiency for each ULB. It can be
observed that only New Delhi Municipal Council has 100% efficiency, where all the waste is either
composted or converted to energy. Conversely, in EDMC, 70% of the waste ends up in the
landfills. This figure is 60%, 45%, and 40% and for North DMC, South DMC respectively, and
Cantonment board.
Table 8: ULB waste segregation and targets

South DMC Negligible 80% 30/09/2021
North DMC Negligible 80% 30/09/2021
The solid waste management efficiency can be further improved with a better plan to handle the
bio-degradable waste at ULB level. The MCDs as shown in Map 10 have very poor waste to
compost conversion rate. Better segregation at source followed by facility of composting at
neighbourhood level can enhance the conversion of waste to compost. The neighbourhood parks
and other green areas and the respective dhalaos can be integrated so to create a good hybrid
space for composting. Map 11 overlays the locations of dhalaos and green areas, which could be
used as potential composting spaces.

3.4 Power
3.4.1 Overview
Delhi currently has a power demand of 33,082 MUs18 annually. The per-capita consumption of the
consumers in Delhi is more than 1741 units per annum as against the national average of 1208 units
as of 2019-20. As per the service plan of Depatr]ment of Power, Delhi, Out of the total installed
capacity, 75 % is purchased from sources outside of Delhi such as Dadri, National Hydroelectric Power
Corporation, Jhajjar at Haryana , Damodar Velly Corporation at West Bengal, Tehri Hydro
Development Corporation Limited at Uttaranchal, Nathpa Jhakri Hydro Electic Plant, allocation
through bi-lateral agreements etc. Approximately 25% of the installed capacity is within Delhi such
as Combined Cycle Gas Turbines (CCGT) at Bawana, Pragati, Gas Turbine etc.; refer Figure 10 below.

3.4.2 Peak demand

Delhi’s peak demand has doubled in the last 14 years, growing faster than the population of the
city. In July 2019 Delhi experienced its highest ever peak demand of 7409MW and it is expected
to touch 8000MW in summers of 2021-22. Delhi experiences two peaks during the summer, day
time in commercial areas and night time peaks in residential. The rising peak demand is mainly
attributed to high usage of air-conditioners and managing the peak demand is one of the major
challenges going ahead for Delhi.
Delhi’s demand and supply pattern for the FY 2015-16 shows a build-up of peak demand between
May and June; refer Figure 13 & 14 below. In the month of July, the difference in maximum peak
and minimum peak is around 3300 MW. The peak demand reduces considerably between
October and December. A minor increase in demand is experienced in January with the
difference between maximum peak and minimum peak at 2800 MW.
Variation of around 2000 MW in a single day is observed during the summer months with maximum
demand of 6188 MW & Min. demand of 4173 MW ~ 48%. During the day in the summer, the peak
consumption builds up late in the afternoon around 3.18 pm and the second peak takes place around
midnight. During the day the peak load is experienced due to high commercial usage while in the
night due to high use age of AC’s in residential areas. There is barely any difference between
night and day peaks during the month of May with the temperature soaring between 40 and
45o c. Delhi's peak demand has been consistently higher than that of Mumbai, Kolkata and
Chennai taken together during summer season19.

3.4.3 Institutional Arrangement for Power Supply in Delhi

The power scenario in Delhi has improved considerably after the power sector
reform in July 2002. The then Delhi Vidyut Board was unbundled into five entities, w.e.f.
01.07.2002 . The power supply in Delhi is managed under four broad categories—Generation
is managed by Indraprastha Power Generation Company Limited, Holding is managed by
Delhi Power Company Limited, Transmission is managed by Delhi Transco Limited, and
Distribution is managed by DISCOMs. The three distribution companies namely BRPL, BYPL,
TPDDL (and NDMC & Cantonment Board) are responsible for supply of power in Delhi. Delhi
being the national capital and hub of commercial activities in the Northern Region has very
high demand for power. Refer Figure 15 for institutional arrangement chart.

3.4.4 Power infrastructure

The power transmission network in Delhi consists of four 400 KV and forty-one 220 KV
substations. The existing network consists of 400 KV ring around the periphery of Delhi
interlinked with the 220 KV network spread all over Delhi. Present Transmission Capacity of
DTL is 5410MVA at 400kV level and 14060MVA at 220kV level. The total transmission line
length in Ckt. Km. is 249.192 at 400 KV level and 824.22 at 220 KV level. Refer Map 12 for

3.4.6 Status of renewal energy in Delhi

Various efforts are being made within Delhi towards harnessing renewable energy. The
overarching National Renewable Energy Policy by MNRE through the assigned Renewable
Purchase Obligation (RPO) as well as the state level solar policy 2016 sets out clear targets for
enabling the transition towards renewable energy. As per the RPO targets, Delhi needs to meet
about 19% of its consumption from renewables by 2022. The Solar Policy for Delhi (2016)
estimates a solar energy potential of 2500 MW for Delhi, and sets a target of 1995 MW which
needs to be installed by 2025 with 75% of RPO targets sourced from within Delhi. Various
government departments are taking initiatives towards installing solar systems and meeting set
targets; refer Table 10 below.

SDMC installed a total capacity of 9.255 MW of solar roof during the year 2018-19. The net meter
was installed on 152 buildings and total energy generated is 26, 36,888 electrical units. Another
major shift towards renewable energy is attributed to DMRC’s use of solar energy in their
operations of rolling stock. 60% of DMRC’s day time demand is met by solar energy bought from
Rewa in Madhya Pradesh. This will help DMRC not only reduce its dependence on coal, but also
save Rs. 793 crore on its energy bill over the next 25 years. 24% of the solar energy generated at
the 1,590 acre Rewa solar park is bought by DMRC. DJB also generates a total of 64,580 KWH
from bio gas at 9 STPs with a total combined capacity of 216 MGD; refer Table 11 below.

3.5 Telecommunication
The telecom industry has truly played an instrumental role in shaping the way exchange of
goods and provision of urban services take place in our cities. Ushering in what many call the
4th Industrial Revolution. The wide spread of ICTs and internet usage has notably driven
majority of the disruptions such as Amazon/ Flipkart, UBER/ OLA, Air BNB/ OYO, Swiggy/
Zomato, Netflix/ Amazon Prime etc. 5G is expected to extend beyond the traditional voice
and data services. 5G network offers increased reliability, lower latency, higher throughput,
increased connection density which would enable massive commercial deployments of
technologies such as IoT, AI, RPA, AR/ VR.
3.5.1 Existing National Level Policy Frameworks
Telecommunication is a central subject, therefore governing policies for the sector are
prepared at the central level. Two important enabling national policies that will speed up
the digitalisation movement in India are:
National Digital Communications Policy 2018:
 Provide universal broadband connectivity at 50 Mbps to every citizen.

 Provide 1 GBPS connectivity to all Gram Panchayats by 2020 and 10 GBPS by 2022.
 Ensure connectivity to all uncovered areas.
 Attract investments of USD 100 billion in the digital communications sector.
 Train one million manpower for building new age skill.
 Expand IoT ecosystem to 5 billion connected devices.
 Establish a comprehensive data protection regime for digital communications that
safeguards the privacy, autonomy and choice of individuals.
 Facilitate India’s effective participation in the global digital economy.
 Enforce accountability through appropriate institutional mechanisms to assure
citizens of safe and secure digital communications infrastructure and services.
Telegram Right Of Way Rules 2016:
Provides exclusive rights to telecom operators (telcos) to temporarily acquire land for laying
down fibre cables and mobile towers. Projects of laying optic fibre cable at city level are
sanctioned by the road owning agencies through bids which can be taken up by any private
party.

3.6.1 Institutional Arrangement

At the central level, natural gas is regulated by Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board, which
sets service level benchmarks and supply norms. Indraprastha Gas Ltd (IGL) was incorporated by in
1998 as a company responsible for laying network for the distribution of natural gas in the National
Capital Territory of Delhi to consumers in the domestic, transport, and commercial sectors. IGL took
over Delhi City Gas Distribution Project in 1999 from GAIL (India) Limited (Formerly Gas Authority of
India Limited). The transport sector uses natural gas as Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), the domestic
and commercial sectors use it as Piped Natural Gas (PNG) and Regasified Liquefied Natural Gas (R-
LNG) is being supplied to industrial establishments.
3.6.2 Compressed Natural Gas

As per the Indraprastha Gas Limited (IGL), presently (2021), there are a total of 409 CNG stations in
Delhi with 4 control rooms at Rohini, Dwarka, Jail Road and Shakurpur. Out of the 409 CNG stations
around 250 stations are integrated with petrol pumps. Out of the 409 CNG stations in Delhi 54% are
owned by Oil Marketing Companies (HPCL, BPCL, IOCL), while 32% is Corporation Owned Corporation
Operated (IGL), 13% is owned by Delhi Travel Corporation (DTC) and Delhi Integrated Multi-Modal
Transit System (DIMTS) and 1% is Dealer Owned Dealer Operated; refer Figure 16.

3.6.3 Piped Network Gas

A total of 9,66,098 households (roughly 25 % of the total households in Delhi) are connected
by piped gas, spread across 25% of the area within Delhi. 8.4% of the area within Delhi is
planned to be connected with PNG. Around 50.4% of Delhi has been identified as technically
not fit for augmentation of PNG networks by IGL. These areas include JJ colonies, UACs,
Green Areas, Restricted Areas and Water Bodies. Areas which have sizeable population and
are identified as technically not fit shall continue to be serviced by LPG. New land pooling
areas can be considered for augmentation of PNG. Around 1.4% has been identified partially
fit for augmentation. Refer Map-15.

3.7 Disaster Risk Management

High population densities in unplanned settlements, along with chronic under-provisioning of basic
utilities and services as well as aging infrastructure (water, sanitation, transport, health, etc.), makes
Delhi particularly vulnerable to disasters. Many of these settlements are also located on low lying
lands and built with minimum regard to building byelaws. All these factors put together make Delhi
vulnerable to natural disasters such as earthquakes, flooding, cloud-bursts, cold wave/ heat wave,
thunder-storms/ squall, epidemics/ pandemics (biological) such as the recent CoViD 19 and man-
made disasters such as building collapse due to fires and lack of structural safety, traffic/ road
accidents, terrorism/ cyber-attacks, environmental pollution, water scarcity, social vulnerability and
industrial hazards/ chemical disasters.
The Disaster Management Act, 2005 stipulates preparation of state and district disaster
management plans aimed at reducing disaster risks as well as ensuring strong preparedness,
response, and rehabilitation measures for coping with disasters. The State Disaster Management
Plan of Delhi named as ‘Delhi Disaster Management Plan’ (DDMP) is prepared as per the guidelines
issued by the National Disaster Management Authority and duly approved by Delhi Disaster
Management Authority, chaired by Hon’ble Lt. Governor of Delhi.
3.7.1 Earthquakes
According to the seismic zone map of India, Delhi is located in Zone-4 which has fairly high seismicity
where the general occurrence of earthquakes is 5-6 magnitude, a few of magnitude 6-7 and
occasionally of 7-8 magnitude is anticipated further. Delhi sits on 3 fault lines namely Sohna fault
line, Mathura fault line and Delhi-Moradabad fault line.
The potential seismic hazard in Delhi is attributed to the Himalayan thrust system and activation of
fault systems of the Delhi Fold Belt (DFB). Delhi is located in the Delhi Fold Belt characterised by
folded sequences of quartzite with minor meta-pellites, with distinct folding episodes of the
Proterozoic period. The DFB is bounded by two important strike-slip faults namely the
Mehendragarh-Dehradun Subsurface Fault (MDSSF) and the Great Boundary Fault (GBF). Another
important structural element of the belt is the NW-SE trending Delhi-Sargodha Range (DSR) which
passes through Delhi and is flanked by basins on either side, viz, the Sahaspur in the north and the
Bikaner basin in the southwest; refer Map 16.
Majority of the building stock in Delhi is characterised by buildings which are unsafe due to rampant
unauthorised constructions and non-compliance with building byelaws; refer Table 13 for details
regarding areas in Delhi and their level of vulnerability to earthquakes.

3.7.2 Fire
According to Delhi Fire Service statistics, Delhi had more than 75,000 fire incidents during the last
five years resulting in more than 1825 deaths, injuries to more than 7,600 persons and loss of
property valuing more than Rs. 176 crores. These incidents include five major, twenty-five serious
and ninety-nine medium fires; refer Map 17 for mapping of areas prone to fire incidents, refer
Table 14 for further details of areas which are prone to fire incidents . During the last 5 years, Delhi
has also witnessed an 49% increase in the number of fire incidents in JJ colonies. The increased risk
due to fire based disasters in Delhi can be attributed to;
 Electric Short-Circuiting: 70% of cases due to fire breakouts are estimated to arise from
Electrical causes (mainly short- circuiting). In Special Areas old Havelis have been converted
into production centres and godowns which has led to increased loads on electricity supply.
 Gas leakages: Fires due to LPG cylinder leakages causing fire explosion, this is even more
dangerous in dense and congested areas as there can be more causalities.
 Non-compliance with building bye-laws: Lack of fire safety norms in industrial areas
especially for units handling highly inflammable material like paper, plastic granules,
chemicals, etc. These industrial areas also lack fire alarm systems. Many industrial units have
also come up in residential areas with minimum compliance to building regulations (fire
escapes etc).
 Congested-settlements: UACs, JJ Colonies, Special Areas, Urban villages are characterised by
congested and narrow lanes that makes it difficult for adequate fire response.

35 years. The level of most of the drains is 4.46 metres lower than the average flood level during the
monsoons. Thus, most drains are vulnerable to reverse flows, causing floods in areas that are away
from direct proximity of the Yamuna. Also during the monsoon season, drains are prone to clogging
due to improper waste management and irregular desilting of drains; refer Map 18 below showing

BASELINE REPORT
4. CURRENT AND EXPECTED PROJECTS (OR INITIATIVES) BY GOVERNMENT AGENCIES

4.1. Water-related
The initiatives and projects for the water sector generally fall under two categories:
 Supply side management (that seeks to augment the existing water supply situation in Delhi),
and
 Demand side management (that seeks to reduce the pressure on existing sources through
conservation and judicious use of water)
4.1.1 Supply side management

There are three national projects that have been in the pipeline for a long time, which can help
augment the supply for water. These projects are:
 Renuka Dam: The 148-meter-high Renukaji dam is proposed in Himachal Pradesh’s Sirmour
district on Giri River (tributary of Yamuna River). The live storage of the Renukaji Multi-
Purpose Project is 535 MCM. Delhi is likely to get additional 275 MGD from this project. The
project will also generate 40 MW of power and the Delhi government has agreed to fund
90% of the cost of the power plant. In January 2019, the chief ministers of Haryana,
Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan signed an agreement
for the construction of this project.
 Kishau Dam: Kishau Dam Project is a multipurpose project on River Tons (a tributary of river
Yamuna) at the border of District. Dehradun (U.A.) & District Sirmour (H.P) located at 45 km.
U/S of Dakpathar. The project envisages construction of 236 m high concrete dam, thus
creating an installed capacity of 4 x 150 MW of hydroelectric power and a live storage of
1324 MCM. (1.077 MAF). The water of the proposed dam will be utilised for irrigation,
generation of power and augmenting potable water in the NCT of Delhi. Delhi’s share is
expected to be 40 MGD. The Kishau Dam MoU has been signed by all basin states except
Rajasthan.
 Lakhwar Dam: The Lakhwar project envisages construction of a 204 m high concrete dam
across river Yamuna near Lohari village in Dehradun district of Uttarakhand with a live
storage capacity of 330.66 MCM. This storage will provide irrigation for 33,780 hectares land
and availability of 78.83 MCM water for domestic, drinking and industrial use in the six basin
states. The project will also generate 300 MW of power. In August 2018, the Chief Ministers
of Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan Uttarakhand, Haryana, Delhi and Himachal Pradesh signed an
agreement for the construction of the project.
4.1.2 Demand side management

 DJB is investing significantly in NRW reduction in order to boost the water efficiency. A
number of District meter areas (DMAs) are being set up in order to monitor and manage
NRW.
 DJB has taken up a drive of cleaning of tube-wells and Ranney wells on a large scale,
which will increase the yield of tube wells & Ranney wells by 50%.
 DJB has proposed a scheme to reuse the wastewater for domestic consumption.
Accordingly, the treated wastewater would be discharged in the Yamuna River 12 km
upstream of the intake point at Palla. This would allow additional natural rejuvenation
of the water before it is extracted and further treated at the WTP. An additional WTP
has already been proposed at Bhivani for this. The proposal is pending with the Upper
Yamuna Board.
 There is a proposal to supply treated effluent to U.P. in lieu of freshwater from the state.
58
BASELINE REPORT
DJB has already planned a new STP in Trans Yamuna area for this proposal.
 Installation of the Rain-Water Harvesting System has been made mandatory for plots
having an area of 100 Sq. Meters and above. 50 % of the project cost or 1 lakh whichever
is less, is provided by Delhi Government / Delhi Jal Board to the RWAs or Schools for this
purpose.
 DJB has a scheme of giving rebate of 10% in the water bills to all the properties having
rainwater harvesting system. On the other hand, properties not having this system are
charged 50% extra. Schools or universities that do not practice rainwater harvesting
system are fined Rs 5 lakh. Rainwater harvesting has been made mandatory for hotels/
malls/construction projects.
 DJB has started a comprehensive programme for installation of bulk meters at all water
treatment plants and about 302 bulk meters have already been installed.
4.1.3 Pilot Project for Improving the Efficiency of Water Distribution Network
Under Malviya Nagar UGR Command Area:
 Under a special purpose vehicle, a PPP project was launched in Malviya nagar command area
to improve water distribution, reduce risks of contamination and water losses. This project
managed by Malviya Nagar Water Services (MNWS), a public-private partnership between
Delhi Jal Board and SUEZ, a global leading water and waste resource management company,
several initiatives were taken to improve quality of services offered to customers.
 The project also seeks to improve efficiency of the water network under Malviya Nagar UGR
command area, which has five Assembly constituencies under it namely: Malviya Nagar,
Greater Kailash, Ambedkar Nagar, Chhatarpur and Mehrauli. This facility is spread over 14
sq km with a network of 219 km covering 3.82 lakh people. The total number of metered
connections in the area is 43,087 and the area is divided under nine District Metering Areas
(DMAs). The project has benefited the area by increasing the coverage area and more
importantly the revenue generated.
 This project has scientific monitoring system SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition) of the center from where it controls the entire system. The centre monitors flow,
level, pressure, water quality, residual chlorine, conductivity and turbidity through the
system. The system is equipped with alarm annunciator to keep the parameters within limits.
4.2. Sewage and Drainage-related

 DJB is executing the project of laying of interceptor sewer along three major drains
Najafgarh, Supplementary and Shahdara. 93 MGD has already been trapped. The project is
expected to be completed in 2020.
 There is a policy proposed to connect every household in Delhi to the sewer system, where
DJB will bear the cost of entire network and connections. The policy is still is a draft stage
and pending approval.
 The Irrigation and Flood Control Department and DJB are working on a project to rejuvenate
201 water bodies through treated wastewater from the STPs.
 DJB has undertaken pilot projects in Dwarka and Rohini to create artificial water bodies using
treated wastewater (through constructed wetlands).
 The Delhi Government mandates provision of installation of on-site decentralized
wastewater treatment system by industries, hotels, construction projects. Five/four star
hotels and hospitals having more than 50 beds have also been directed to install
decentralized STPs.
 A drainage Master Plan for Delhi up to the year 2030 has been developed by IIT-Delhi.
59
BASELINE REPORT
 Decentralised sewage treatment plants In Najafgarh area DJB has made 14 clusters of the
colonies (Annexure 6) for decentralized sewerage treatment 26. The land for these STPs will
be majorly taken from gram-sabha land. Some of these STPs are funded by NMCG, whereas
rest of them are self-financed by DJB. This is to treat waste water from cluster of un-
authorized colonies and treating it tough decentralized STPs, before it falls in to river through
respective drains.

planned by PWD at Libaspur.
 Government of Delhi has imposed a ban on manufacture, sale, storage, usage, import and
transport of plastic carry bags in NCT of Delhi.
4.4. Power-related
 The Government of Delhi has developed an Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy
Management Centre (EE&REMC) to implement the program of the Ministry of New and
Renewable Energy (MNRE), Govt. of India.
 GNCTD has proposed to develop New Delhi, Municipal Council (NDMC) area as a solar city
by installing SPV panels on the rooftop of Govt. buildings, metro stations, bus stops, etc. All
the grid connected solar projects have contributed to nearly 118.35 MW of power in Delhi
until December 2018.
 GNCTD has recently introduced a new scheme, namely, “Mukhyamantri Agriculture-cum-
Solar Farm Scheme” has been approved by the Delhi Cabinet to promote and increase solar
power generation.

1. Reduce Delhi’s reliance on conventional energy. Promote
rapid growth of rooftop solar power.
2. Encourage market-based approaches and public-private
partnerships to drive demand and adoption
3. Ensure fairness for all stakeholders in the solar ecosystem.
4. Use regulatory mechanisms to drive demand and adoption,
5. Promote net metering / gross metering and grid
connectivity for all solar plants
6. Generate employment in the solar energy sector through
skill development especially for youth.
7. Provide generation-based incentives for the domestic
segment
8. Promote a robust investment climate that enables multiple
financial models, from self-owned (CAPEX) to third-party
owned (RESCO) models.
9. Establish policy implementation, monitoring and
compliance framework to make sure that efficient
execution and periodic review of the policy takes place.
10. Develop solar energy as part of an overall strategy of
providing affordable, reliable, 24X7 Power to all citizens.

6. SUMMARY AND REFLECTIONS

6.1. Data and information gaps
Some of the key data gaps include:
o Latest spatial distribution of per capita water supply across the city.
o Spatial distribution of NRW across the city.
6.2. Key insights and areas of concerns
1. Water management:
The groundwater in Delhi is severely stressed. As seen in Map 19, most part of Delhi is already
over exploited. These include the South, South East, New Delhi, East, Shahdara, and North East
districts. Only the West and Central districts are safe. Interestingly, in the areas that are over-
exploited also have the maximum green cover. For example, the Southern Ridge lies completely
in the South District. This leads to the inference that the groundwater situation in the critical
areas can be attributed to a number of reasons:
o Private abstraction of groundwater within these areas given that official abstraction of
groundwater has been disallowed in this area since 2010.
o The critical areas are situated at higher elevations, and the gradient gradually reduces
towards the Yamuna River. This would mean that overland flow during the monsoon flows
at faster rate towards the Yamuna, affecting the recharge rate.
o Over-abstraction in the neighboring states of Haryana (Faridabad, Gurgaon) and UP (Noida)

BASELINE REPORT
A holistic groundwater management plan will need to take cognizance of the development in
these cities as well.
The presence of a good green cover in the over-exploited areas offers a unique opportunity for
groundwater recharge. Given that green areas are natural sponges to facilitate the percolation
of run-off, there is only a need to ensure that the overland flow during monsoon is captured in
these areas and not allowed leave the area untapped (e.g. through the creation of sinks).
2. Flood management:
As seen in Map 21, there are number of flooding hotspots in Delhi that have been identified by
the Public Works Department. This is relatively recent data (2018). Map 20 also shows the
flooding hotspots identified by the Delhi Traffic Police, which were identified during the
preparation of the Drainage Master Plan (2017). There is not much difference between the two
maps, which suggests that the hotspots have not changed much over the years. These are,
therefore, areas of persistent concern. In a number of developed countries (e.g. Denmark,
Netherlands) parks and gardens are used as temporary detention areas to mitigate the flood risk.
There a number of parks (marked as planned greens in the Map), that could be leveraged on in
order to address the flooding risk. This option could be explored after ensuring that blocked
drains do not cause the flooding.
3. Solid waste management:

Map 22 shows the efficiency of solid waste management of the ULBs overlaid with parks. The
reason for doing this is to investigate the potential areas for composting activities. As gleaned
from the map, currently there is not much composting done by the ULBs. However, for eco-
friendly waste management (and in line with MoHUA guidelines), there is a need to step up
efforts for composting. There are several examples around the world where parks have been
used for composting municipal solid waste (and not just horticultural waste). Given the
significant area under parks, there is good potential in Delhi for scaling up the composting
endeavours.

7. ANNEXURES
Annexure 1: Methodology adopted for the baseline preparation
Two avenues were employed in order to carry out the baselining exercise.
a) Data collection:
The physical infrastructure sector was divided into three categories: Water; Solid, Liquid Waste
and Drainage(SLWD); and Power. Baselining groups for each category were set up comprising of
senior officers from related government agencies in Delhi. Details of the composition of the
groups are presented in Table A1. The BG primarily supported the planning team in getting access
to data and information from their departments. The group also provided insights into the
implementation of the previous Master Plan (MPD-2021), particularly in terms of challenges faced
which would have to be addressed by MPD 2041. The BG groups met on four occasions during the
course of the baseline preparation as tabulated below.
Schedule Water SLWD Power

1st Meeting 21 Jan 2019 24 Jan 2019 23 April 2019
2nd Meeting 28 Feb 2019 25 Feb 2019 27 May 2019
3rd Meeting 24 April 2019 22 April 2019 04 June 2019
4th Meeting 15 July 2019
Dr. Shyamala Mani (Solid, Liquid Waste and Drainage), Mr. Radheshyam Tyagi (Water; Solid Liquid
Waste and Drainage), and Mr. Pankaj Batra (Power) were engaged as the Sector Advisors to
provide expert and technical guidance for the preparation of the baseline.
b) Interaction with subject experts

Topic : Trenchless sewerage system
Date : 02 May 2019
Modality : Expert presentation and discussion
Expert : Mr. Yousuf Siddiqui, Marketing Head, Sekisui Asia Pipe Solutions, SPR.
Description : Mr. Siddiqui introduced the various technological solutions in urban context
offered by Japanese organization named Sekisui (SPR), specifically focusing on technology for
trenchless rehabilitation of sewer pipes. The advantage of trenchless sewer system is that it
results in minimal damage to environment and disruption in day-to-day activities. Trenchless
solutions are now gaining acceptance in India, and SPR has been able to successfully deploy
these solutions with DJB , MCGM, UPJN, NDMC & BWSSB recently. The project with DJB was
for rehabilitation of almost 5 kms of trunk sewers a few years back. DJB has allocated some
new projects of sewer rehabilitation under YAP-3 named Kondli-1 ( K1) & Rithala – 1A ( R1A
). The total lengths of sewer under both the Jobs is approx. 13 km and diameter ranging from
600 to 1400 mm.
Topic : Water supply and demand management in Delhi

Date : 14 June 2019
Modality : Discussion
Participants : Member (Water) DJB and Senior Engineers (Planning), DJB
69
BASELINE REPORT
Description : The meeting was held to have concerted discussions with Delhi Jal Board
officials for understanding the water supply and demand scenario in Delhi. Specifically the
discussions focused on the following topics―Delhi Water Policy; future scenarios of water
demand and availability; use of treated affluent to augment water supply; and water provision
for the land pooling areas.
Topic : Solid waste management in SDMC area and the impact of Okhla landfill site
on the residents
Date : 28 June 2019
Modality : Expert presentation and discussion
Expert : Dr. Bini Samal, Project Manager, WaterAid
Description : Dr. Samal discussed the current scenario of waste management in SDMC
area based on a study she carried out as part of her PhD dissertation. She elaborated upon
the issues caused by Okhla landfill site in the neighbouring residential societies. The Okhla
landfill site majorly receives un-segregated waste, which neither can be sent for composting
nor be recycled. The landfill site has already reached peak capacity but is still being used by
SDMC. The landfill site also has an impact on ground water quality of this particular area. The
presentation highlighted the critical health hazards due to the contaminated water in SDMC
area and medical issues observed in recent past. The conclusion of the presentation was that
this landfill site should be closed immediately and capped by proper landscaping.
