New Delhi:
The three municipal corporations in the city are using a colour-coded map to ascertain the requirement of no-objection certificates (NOCs) for a particular property, a senior official said on Monday.
The map is developed in collaboration with the Geo-Spatial Delhi Limited (GSDL), under the larger ambit of ease of doing business and get building plans applications processed online, the South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) said.
SDMC is the nodal agency for making the processing for building plans approval available online.
SDMC Municipal Commissioner P K Goel, in a statement, shared some of the milestones of the project, saying in a major reform undertaken in the area, the plans were now sanctioned through a "single-window system only".
"A major reform is development of a single super-imposed colour-coded zonal map to ascertain the requirement of nature and extent of NOC for a particular property in a fraction of a minute," he said.
This map is quick and reliable in providing information on the requirement for an NOC as by just clicking on a particular location on the map, one can ascertain the requirement of the NOC with the help of longitude and latitude.
