Bhopal. Soon four districts will be developed in Madhya Pradesh on the lines of metropolitan cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai. The state government has started working on the plan to convert the state capital Bhopal, the state’s commercial capital Indore, cultural capital Jabalpur and Gwalior into metropolitan cities. In this sequence, preparations for creating Indore Metropolitan Region have also been started. Thousands of square kilometers of area of surrounding districts are being included in Indore metropolis. It is noteworthy that on the instructions of CM Mohan Yadav, the exercise for Indore Metropolitan Region has been started. The district administration has planned to include several villages falling within the municipal corporation limits. Initiatives are being taken for the overall development of 29 surrounding villages under the Indore Metropolitan Region. Tax was increased in these villages, which were included in Indore Municipal Corporation limits about a decade ago, but not much attention was paid to the facilities. Officials are now focusing on these. Lakdak colonies will now be seen in all 29 villages. The drainage system here will be improved, basic infrastructure like roads will be developed and electricity and water facilities will also be provided. Narmada water will be made available for drinking water. These villages are also included in the proposal for Indore Metropolitan Region prepared by Indore District Administration. Many colonies have developed on agricultural land in these villages and big buildings have also been constructed.
Dhar, Ujjain and Dewas also in Indore Metropolitan Region
Along with these villages, parts of Ghar, Ujjain and Dewas districts adjacent to Indore have also been included in the Indore Metropolitan Region. A plan has been made for the overall development of all four districts including Indore as a metropolitan region. According to officials, along with 29 villages of Indore, many villages of Ujjain, Dhar and Dewas have also been included in Indore Metropolitan Region. In the form of Indore Metropolitan Region, a total of 7,863 square km area of all the four districts will be combined and will take the shape of a metropolis.
