Housing Scheme 2014: DDA posts video guide for filling forms

NEW DELHI: The Delhi Development Authority today posted an online video guide on filling up of forms for its new housing scheme and precautions to be taken for it.

Running into over six minutes, the video is available on the 'DDA Housing Scheme 2014' page on its official website www.dda.org.in.

The video gives details, column by column, of the steps to be used in filling the form. It also elaborates on the precautions which could be taken while filling up the form, the urban body said.

DDA had earlier uploaded a video detailing the process of conversion of property from leasehold into freehold, it said.

Considering the various requests and queries from general public regarding filling up of the forms the video has been uploaded on the website.

The website had received a whopping 18.25 lakh hits in the first two days since its launch of scheme on September 1, under which over 25,000 flats have been offered. It had crashed on its opening day following a massive response of 11 lakh hits.

"We have upgraded our servers to meet the online traffic requirements," a senior DDA official said.

Officials said that 15 lakh brochures were printed in the first installment and later 5 lakh more were added following the demand.
