settlements here started around the late 1970s and 1980s, thus this is a relatively old and green area. the east side was 'mostly' developed by the dda where blocks were a, b, and c-blocks were formed and plots were allotted along with flats in group housings. the west side is 'mostly' privately developed. huge sects of land (over 7-70 acres each) were allotted by the dda to private societies on both sides. these societies then made roads (within their respective land) and erected other essential amenities by themselves and allotted plots to members. most of the kothis (apart from the ones in a, b, and c-block) of the areas are in these colonies. plot sizes here range from 164-500 square yards, with 200 being a common size. post-2008, following a change in mcd rules, the concept of a builder floor here has really taken off, where these bungalows are being converted to the 4-floor building in which different floors accommodate different families as against other bungalows which are one-family dwellings. the land developed by dda has no such bungalows or builder floors.
