proposed integrated complex for delhi judicial academy

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. Over the
