(a)&(b): DDA has reported that the allotment of flats in Rohini
has not yet been made. Rohini HIG Housing Scheme, 2003 has been
closed on 15.7.2003 and draw for allotment of flats is scheduled
for August 2003. In Dwarka, out of 940 HIG category flats
allotted on 12.3.2003, 551 flats have been surrendered by the
allottees.
(c)to(f): Free market conditions in housing sectors have
resulted in providing more options to the allottees which may be
one of the reasons for surrender of flats. DDA takes into
account various options to meet the housing demands in the
market, which is no longer seller driven.
