Rapid Environmental Impact Assessment (REIA) Study for Proposed Integrated Complex for Delhi Judicial Academy, National Law School, and National Institute for Mediation & Conciliation at Dwarka, New Delhi Delhi was considered as a single district for Population Census 1991. In 1996, Government of NCT of Delhi through a Gazette notification created 9 districts and 27 sub-divisions. Population Census 2001 was conducted in Delhi in each of 9 districts and 27 Sub-divisions. Comparison of socio-economic attributes of the study area (South West District) and NCT of Delhi is given in Table 4.17.

Rapid Environmental Impact Assessment (REIA) Study for Proposed Integrated Complex for Delhi Judicial Academy, National Law School, and National Institute for Mediation & Conciliation at Dwarka, New Delhi compared to many other places in Delhi. As a consequence, households and businesses have had to resort to exploiting ground water resources. In summer season, the demand is also met through water tankers. However, it is expected that the piped water supply in the study area will be augmented in the near future as a result of functioning of 80 MGD new water treatment plant (Figure 4.14). The proposed project is also dependent on meeting its 60% of total water demand through municipal supply. • Sewerage: The project area is served by both open surface storm water drain and closed municipal sewerage drains. Most of the domestic sewage generated in the project area is carried away by the municipal drain and discharged into the sewage treatment plant. The open surface storm water drain lies very close to the proposed project site. However, the project will construct a decentralized sewage treatment plant within its own complex to reduce the burden of discharge in the municipal drain and at the same time to reuse the treated water within the complex. Some portion of the unutilized treated water might find its way to the drain. • Solid Waste: Municipal solid waste collection and disposal infrastructure exists in the project area. Figure 4.15 shows the municipal waste disposal sites that exist in Delhi. It is expected that the project area will see further improvement in the solid waste management in the near future with the operation of the proposed waste disposal sites. • Power Supply: Power supply network infrastructure adequately exists in the project area. Although the gap in the demand and supply fluctuates in different period of the year, the situation will improve in the near future. Delhi has already initiated the reforms measures in the power sector and is moving towards the path of energy sufficiency. Although the proposed project will provide the in-house power back up facilities, the improved network supply situation will reduce the dependency on the in-house generators and hence reduce the associated pollution issues associated with their operation. 4.10.3 Education Education is an essential element of human development. It plays a major role in improving economic opportunities for people and enhancing their quality of life by building capabilities, enhancing skill levels and providing more productive employment. The project area is well placed in having adequate infrastructure facilities for education. Number of pre-primary, primary, middle, secondary and senior secondary schools exists in the area.
