The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD)’s Chandni Chowk redevelopment plan may not have taken off even after five years of planning, but that has not deterred the civic agency from moving on to fresh pastures. This time around they are planning to restore the lost glory of New Darya Ganj market area.

According to a proposal, the area will be given a facelift on the lines of the makeover in Connaught Place.

Vertika Sharma, consultant of the project, said New Darya Ganj was once part of the British Darya Ganj Cantonment. It was, she said, one of the earliest establishments of the British in Old Delhi.
