concerned to coordinate the progress of
implementation of the projects.
As regards vesting of powers in the
NCR, the NCR Planning Board includes the
Chief Ministers of Haryana, Rajasthan,
Uttar Pradesh and Delhi with Union
Minister for Urban Development as the
Chairman of the Board. Therefore, the
decisions taken in respect of Regional
Planning have the concurrence of the
concerned State Governments.
In addition, the Ministry feels that the
pace of development in the National Capital
Region can be accelerated only through a
process of incentivisation. The NCRPB is
exploring possibility for taking up regional
projects which can create an impact on the
infrastructure requirement of the NCR and
also proposing for higher allocation of funds
to the Board.
