The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has been sitting on more than 5000 flats lying vacant in the city. Residents of Delhi may be waiting for Delhi Development Authority (DDA) to offer new flats, but there are about 5,970 flats lying vacant in the city.
These vacant flats are in various categories, including high income group (HIG), middle income group (MIG), low income group (LIG), self financing scheme (SFS) and economically weaker section (EWS).
