NOIDA: The board of the Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA) on Saturday approved proposals for the development of a new exhibition-convention center and a cargo terminal.
According to a statement from GNIDA, the convention center will come up on 25 acres in Sector Chi of the city, while the cargo terminal is proposed near the Inland Container Depot (ICD) in the Dadri area.
These decisions were taken in the board meeting chaired by UP Infrastructure and Industrial Development Commissioner Manoj Kumar Singh. GNIDA CEO NG Ravi Kumar and Noida Authority CEO Lokesh M were also present in the meeting.
The Board acknowledged that Greater Noida is fast gaining prominence on the global stage, hosting national and international events, but it has only one venue for such events – the India Expo Mart at the Knowledge Park.With the upcoming Noida International Airport, the arrival of VIPs and international visitors will increase.
"Keeping in mind the growing population, which is projected to reach 40 lakh to 50 lakh by 2050, a new exhibition-convention center is necessary. The center will include a hotel and a large garden," the statement said.
"This proposal will now be sent to the government for further approval," it said.
The Board also approved the development of a cargo terminal near ICD at Dadri, which will cover about 260 acres, under the PM Gatishakti National Master Plan.The land of this cargo terminal is near Pali and Makora villages.
"Expected to generate around 15,000 jobs, it will position the terminal area as a major logistics hub in the National Capital Region (NCR). The proposal will now be sent to the government for approval," the statement said.
On drinking water supply, the board was informed about the progress of Ganga water project and said that out of 58 residential areas, 44 are getting water supply.
"The project aims to supply (water) to all 58 sectors by the end of the year, with work underway to extend the supply to Greater Noida West (also known as Noida Extension)," GNIDA said.
The board also approved the revised pet registration policy, which abolished registration fees and provided for imposition of fine for unregistered pets."Pet owners should use the service lifts and designated feeding points, which will be identified jointly by the residents of the society and its Apartment Owners Association (AOA)," it said.
It said the GNIDA board has also approved a new policy for mobile tower installation, which will require operators to apply for permission and provide bank guarantee and structural stability certificate.
