Summary
- Prayagraj Development Authority reclaims PDA land in Kareli-Karelabagh.
- New 'Tulsi Vihar' residential project and 'Tulsi Chowk' to be developed.
- PDA to offer up to 18% benefits on vacant flats sold via first-come, first-served.
A significant parcel of land belonging to the Prayagraj Development Authority (PDA) in Kareli-Karelabagh, which has been illegally occupied for decades, is slated for redevelopment. The PDA plans to establish a new residential project named 'Tulsi Vihar,' along with a 'Tulsi Chowk,' aiming to revive the historical identity of the area as Tulsipur.
Following a directive from vice-chairman Rishi Raj, officials conducted a survey and verified revenue records, confirming substantial illegal occupation and unauthorized construction. The PDA is now preparing to remove these encroachments to proceed with the development, which will include residential units, roads, parks, and civic amenities.
In parallel, the PDA is preparing a scheme to sell over 400 vacant flats across its residential projects during Navratri. Buyers can avail benefits up to 18% on the flat cost, combining interest waivers and early payment discounts. The allotment process is shifting from a lottery to a first-come, first-served basis, with an online portal being developed for applications.
