NOIDA is a department of the government of Uttar Pradesh in
Gautam Buddha Nagar District, India. The acronym is also the
name of the area (New Okhla Industrial Development Area), that
is under the management of the department. NOIDA came into existence
on 19th April, 1976 and celebrates 19th April as "NOIDA
Day". Sanjay Gandhi set up NOIDA as part of an urbanisation
thrust during the controversial Emergency period (1975-1977).
The city, which was created under the UP Industrial Area Development
Act, has first-class amenities and is considered to be one of
the more modern suburbs of Delhi. It is also home to the NOIDA
Film City.

The land within
the NOIDA city limits was initially under the Bulandshahar District
(approx. distance 37 km), but was later transferred to the Ghaziabad
district (approx. distance 16 km). Later still, NOIDA was made
into a separate administrative zone as a separate district by
Chief Minister, Mayawati. This decision of the Mayawati government
came under review from the next government of Mulayam Singh
Yadav, who reversed it in 2003, and remerged NOIDA with Ghaziabad.
After a period of some 9 months, the decision was reversed yet
again in 2004 and the city was once again made into a separate
district.
There were some allegations of political favours through low-priced
land deals due to these decisions. Presently, the city is a
separate district, called Gautam Budh Nagar, with its administrative
HQ at Dadri, a nearby town. However, the highest government
official, the District Magistrate (DM) stays in Noida. The city
falls under the NOIDA-Dadri legislative assembly seat (Vidhan
Sabha) and Khurja Parliamentary seat (Lok Sabha). |
