NDMC to revive CP’s fading white facades and forgotten fountains
Hindustan Times Delhi
|October 17, 2025
The New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) will soon launch a major cleanup and repainting drive in Connaught Place to restore the white grandeur of its iconic corridors, where yellow and red stains have crept up over time.
This will be the first large-scale restoration of the market's corridors and pillars since the G20 Summit in 2023.
The civic body is also working on several parallel projects to improve the market’s environs, including repairing defunct escalators in subways and reviving the musical fountain at Central Park.
Officials said the drive, set to run over the next four months, will involve scraping off stained patches, repairing scratches and surface damage with white cement, and repainting the pillars with synthetic enamel paint for an even finish.
“Around 12,000 square metres of surface will be restored, and more than 1,350 litres of paint will be used,” an NDMC official aware of the plan said.
