Baprola Resettlement Colony, West Delhi: A Report on the Problems & Solutions

This report presents the findings of a structural and design assessment of the Baprola EWS Housing Colony in Delhi, undertaken by the Alliance for an Energy Efficient Economy, Design Axis, and residents from the self-help group Asha ki Kiran. Residents of the colony face various challenges, ranging from rapid deterioration and seismic vulnerability to unsuitable material choices and costly repair needs. Drawing from on-site inspections and technical analysis, the report highlights how design limitations, construction quality concerns, and insufficient resilience planning have impacted the safety, durability, and long-term value of these homes. It offers clear, actionable recommendations to enhance structural performance, improve material selection, and strengthen project monitoring and performance processes, providing a repair pathway for Baprola and valuable lessons for future affordable housing developments.
