Core Purpose

This notification exempts an area of 20.2739 hectare from the maximum one-hectare limitation under sub-section (3) of Section 9 of the Delhi Preservation of Trees Act, 1994, for the development of an integrated Multi Sport Arena in Dwarka, New Delhi.

Detailed Summary

The Department of Forests and Wildlife, Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi, issued a notification on July 7, 2026 (F. No. 24894/WFD/COT/2025-26/5061) in response to an application (ID no. 24894) received by the Tree Officer (West Forest Division) from Sh. Rajneesh Pabbi of M/s. Omaxe Limited. The application sought permission under the Delhi Preservation of Trees Act, 1994 (Delhi Act 11 of 1994), for the transplantation/felling of 2035 trees for the development of an integrated Multi Sport Arena on a PPP mode with DDA, located in Sector-19-B, Dwarka, New Delhi, covering an area of 20.2739 hectare. Due to the limitation of a maximum one-hectare area for such applications under Section 9 sub-section (3) of the DPTA, 1994, the Tree Officer sought an exemption for the 20.2739 hectare area. Consequently, the Lt. Governor of the National Capital Territory of Delhi, exercising powers conferred by Section 29 of the DPTA, 1994, granted an exemption in public interest for the 20.2739 hectare area (as detailed in Annexure-A) from the one-hectare limitation under Section 9(3) of the Act. This notification explicitly states that it only provides the area exemption and does not constitute permission for tree transplantation/felling, which will be considered independently by the Tree Officer under the DPTA, 1994, the Delhi Preservation of Trees Rules, 1996, and relevant guidelines and court orders.
