Welcome to Resident Ward Committee
Welcome to the website of the Residents Ward Committee of Delhi. Authored by the
advocacy group People’s Action, initiated by the MCD and being implemented by the
apex body of residents in Delhi, URJA, it is a pioneering scheme designed to change
the urban governance The effects of this scheme, in the spirit of the 74th constitutional
amendment are to provide a say to residents in deciding how their neighbourhoods
will be developed. Once fully implemented it will result in transparent and equitable
civic governance without the customary arbitrariness witnessed in the past. We welcome
you and urge you to join us in this movement towards a progressive society.
