Published by Parlour News

2 min readNew DelhiMay 6, 2026 09:03 PM IST After several missed deadlines and delays, the last leg of the Pragati Maidan Integrated Transit Corridor — Bhairon Marg Underpass 5 — which passes beneath an active railway line is likely to be completed by February next year. Public Works Department (PWD) minister Parvesh Sahib Singh said that the work on the stretch has been resumed and is going in full swing. “Work has gathered pace… We have also got an in-principle NOC from the Indian Railways. Trains are likely to be diverted for a few days so that the work is completed on time,” he said. The 110-metre-long Underpass 5 was supposed to be completed and inaugurated along with the Pragati Maidan tunnel and other underpasses on this stretch as part of the Pragati Maidan Integrated Transit Corridor redevelopment project. However, owing to an active railway line over the stretch and fluctuations in the Yamuna water level, it was delayed. In 2023, the work was halted after precast concrete boxes, pushed beneath the active railway …

For over two decades, Bungalow No. 33 on Shamnath Marg near Delhi’s Civil Lines, which once served as the Chief Minister’s residence, has had no takers. Politicians and bureaucrats alike have avoided it reportedly over rumours of “bad luck”, and it being “jinxed” and even “haunted”. To utilise the abandoned property, the Delhi government is planning to demolish the bungalow and develop a government office building, officials told The Indian Express. “Due to the rumours surrounding the house over the years, no senior politician, minister or even top bureaucrat is willing to take it up… the perception that it is jinxed or haunted have made many consider it bad luck. As no one is willing to move in, the government is now planning to redevelop the property into an official building for governance purposes,” said a senior official. Officials said the government is also considering constructing a state office for the Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) at the site. “Delhi does not have a dedicated building for this office.
