Lucknow/Ayodhya: The Ayodhya Development Authority (ADA) and the Lucknow Development Authority (LDA) have announced key updates on their ongoing housing projects, bringing relief to homebuyers awaiting affordable residential opportunities in Uttar Pradesh.
The Ayodhya Development Authority has extended the registration deadline for its Basusht Kunj Awas Yojana (Phase II). The project is located along the Lucknow–Ayodhya Highway near Firozpur Uphar village.
Originally, online registrations for the second phase were open from September 23, 2025, to October 25, 2025. However, due to strong public demand, the deadline has now been extended to November 11, 2025.
Applicants who missed the earlier deadline can now apply online until 11 November 2025.
The scheme offers residential plots under various categories, with details on plot size, type, and rate available on ADA’s official website.
In another major update, the Lucknow Development Authority (LDA) has announced lottery dates for its Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Awas Yojana, developed on land recently freed from illegal occupation by former MLA Mukhtar Ansari in the Dalibagh area.
According to officials, approximately 2,314 square meters of land were reclaimed and redeveloped for this residential housing scheme.
The project offers 72 flats, each measuring 36.65 square meters, aimed at providing affordable housing options for eligible applicants.
LDA Vice-Chairman Prathamesh Kumar confirmed that the lottery draw for flat allotment will take place on November 10 and 11, 2025, at Indira Gandhi Pratishthan, Lucknow. The process will be conducted transparently through a manual draw system.
