The Delhi Development Authority has declared 26 villages as low-density residential areas for development under its new farmhouse policy.

The 26 villages are Sayurpur, Satbari, Chhattarpur, Khanpur, Devli, Bhatti, Fatehpur Beri, Asola, Jounapur, Chandan Hula, Gadaipur, Sultanpur, Mehrauli, Ghitorni, Rangpuri, Chhawala, Pindwalan Khurd, Rewla Khanpur, Paprawat, Ghuman Hera, Jhatikara, Kanganheri, Holambi Khurd, Bakoli, Bakhtawar Pur and Hiranki.
