What can be done with this vacant land?

Delhi is having a big pollution problem. The Delhi Govt. is trying to put in greenry all around to resolve this problem. This vacant piece of land provide such an opportunity to put a green area pocket. This will reduce dust, heat and pollution. Since, the part of the land was earlier used as graveyard, it will not be possible to use it for some other purpose.

Once the trees are there all across, the air quality will improve and it will also act as water recharging area to take care of falling water level.

In order to do so, the Delhi Govt. has to come out of its cocoon of politics (Which is difficult but not impossible for Ms. Shiela Dixit, CM, Delhi considering the internal dynmics of Congress party) and take a firm stand to decide on it. This will be difficult considering Delhi Waqf board is now misusing its power to grab this whole peice (while part of it was with it and is of no use to it at the moment. They cannot even sell it to make money since it was used as graveyard and people's sentiments are attached to graves.) and the land on which more than 1000 houses are there which are legally now owned by the residents.

LET NATURE TAKE CARE OF SUCH AREA AND THE BURIED SOULES WHICH WAS GIVEN BACK TO NATURE AT SOME POINT OF TIME.
