    • Dwarka: Roundabout below Delhi Metro line in Sector 10 is ?Idiot Chowk,? DDA agrees
      Three years ago, residents of Dwarka renamed the roundabout below the Delhi Metro line in Sector 10 ‘Idiot Chowk’ because of its confusing design. It is in the shape of an 8 and has six roads abruptly merging at one place. They are now amused to find that Delhi Development Authority agrees and has referred to the roundabout by this popular name in its online book filing system. The book filing system provides details of projects such as roads, service lanes or constructions in an area. TOI accessed the relevant page to note DDA’s entry: Road work from Idiot Chowk to SDM office, 5288.25 sqm, done on July 3, applying tack coat using bitumen.”When questioned, a DDA official said the name was entered erroneously in the billing records. “The roundabout has not been officially named so far. The name Idiot Chowk was a clerical error. We are trying to take corrective action,” the official mumbled. According to the residents, DDA got the designs of five roundabouts cleared by Unified Traffic and Transportation Infrastructure (Planning & Engineering) Centre, or UTTIPEC, Delhi’s transport engineering authority, to make the road network signal-free. The first constructed was the one at Sector 10 with the sinuous 8 shape. “People get confused here, especially those visiting Dwarka for the first time because one cannot anticipate where the roads are leading to despite the signage in the middle of the intersection,” said CK Rejimon, president, Dwarka Forum, a grouping of the local RWAs. “It is risky also for pedestrians because of the damaged footpaths and the absence of a zebra crossing.” The protest of the people led to the scrapping of the other roundabouts. “However, DDA didn’t forget the episode, it seems, and this is why in the book filing system, which can be accessed by the public, it has used the derisory name for the spot,” smiled Rejimon.
