Structures restored by DDA unveiled in Sanjay Van
Two medieval structures, dating back to the 13 and 14th century, as well as an old well in south Delhi’s Sanjay Van, which were recently restored by the Delhi Development Authority, were inaugurated by lieutenant governor VK Saxena on Monday. DDA said Sanjay Van is dotted with monuments that depict architecture from the 13 and 14th century. Saxena said when he first visited Sanjay Van in May 2023, these heritage structures were overrun by dense vegetation, dirt and garbage. Various decayed heritage structures have been restored to their historic glory and the site has been transformed into a remarkable green space for the public under his direct supervision,” the DDA said in a statement, adding that the area is dotted with historical structures, dating to the times of Prithviraj Chauhan and Anangpal 2 of Tomar dynasty, among others.
