CM Yogi and Rajnath Singh to Open Registrations for 2,092 Residential Plots on November 23
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh will open public registrations for 2,092 residential plots in Lucknow's Saumitra Vihar and IT City on November 23, 2026, alongside launching ₹148-crore urban infrastructure works.
Prospective homebuyers eyeing prime real estate in Uttar Pradesh's capital are set for a major festive windfall, as Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh prepare to officially inaugurate public registrations for flagship residential schemes on Monday, November 23, 2026. Spearheaded jointly by the Uttar Pradesh Housing and Development Council (UP Awas Vikas Parishad) and the Lucknow Development Authority (LDA), the mega launch will introduce thousands of developed residential and commercial plots across Mohanlalganj and Sultanpur Road. Marking an unprecedented urban expansion drive, the initiative represents the first time four major government housing layouts have opened for consumer applications within a rapid two-month window, catering directly to the soaring residential demand across the Lucknow metropolitan corridor.
Saumitra Vihar and IT City: Land Pooling Breakthrough Across Mohanlalganj and Kisan Path
The upcoming registry rollout is anchored by the UP Housing and Development Council’s Saumitra Vihar township, situated along New Jail Road in the Mohanlalganj sector. Developed under state-approved land-pooling regulations, the project layout encompasses 2,261 total demarcated sites, comprising 2,092 premium residential plots and 169 commercial zones; with participating farmers already allotted their entitled shares, Phase 1 public bidding and bookings will now commence. Simultaneously, the LDA is rolling out its massive IT City township adjacent to Sultanpur Road and the outer Kisan Path ring. Covering agricultural belts across 11 rural enclaves—including Sonai Kanjehra, Paharnagar Tikaria, Parehta, Sikandarpur Amolia, and Rakibabad—the project will see land-contributing farmers handed formal physical allotment letters as consumer inventory opens along one of Lucknow's fastest-growing transit arteries.
₹148-Crore Gomti Flood Defense and Daliganj Green Corridor ROB Inauguration
Beyond real estate allotments, the high-profile administrative visit on November 23 will mark significant civic upgrades designed to reinforce trans-Gomti urban infrastructure. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh will break ground on an embankment dam along the Gomti River in Faizullahganj, coupled with five state-of-the-art drainage pumping stations valued at ₹148 crore. The specialized hydraulic network is engineered to permanently resolve seasonal waterlogging and monsoon river overflow across low-lying localities in north Lucknow. Furthermore, the dignitaries will cut the ribbon on a newly constructed Railway Overbridge (ROB) along the Daliganj segment of the Lucknow Green Corridor, streamlining traffic flow between Old City commercial centers and peripheral suburban developments.
