In order to provide affordable housing accommodations to the homeless, Nagpur Smart and Sustainable City Development Corporation Limited (NSSCDCL) — the special purpose vehicle to implement the smart city's pilot project, has decided to build 4,000 affordable houses. Out of the total units score of them will be made available for project affected-persons (PAPs). The SPV, which is spearheaded by the additional chief secretary to CM Praveen Pardeshi, approved its own resettlement and rehabilitation (R&R) policy for the project. It is worth mentioning here that about 700 families are likely to be affected during road expansion as well as construction projects. These families will be rehabilitated in the housing project, CEO, NSSCDCL, Ramnath Sonawane said, adding that policy will be incorporated in the development control regulation to be prepared for the project. The survey of 1,730 acres in Smart City area based development (ABD) area including Pardi, Punapur, Bharatwada and Bhandewadi has been completed to steer clear the project.
