The only hitch is the drinking and potable water which is a concern created by the Delhi Jal Board and DDA who have not been very organised in their distribution of water; however, this region is still better off in terms of water availability compared to the other parts of the NCR towns including Gurgaon and Noida.

The planned structure of Dwarka includes a well established and self contained community centre for each of the respective residential sectors that have been designed to accommodate a population of about 30,000 residents each. Each Sector is bounded on all sides by corridors of roads measuring 45 m and 60 m wide. 

Each Sector has its own network of cycle tracks and pedestrian pathways that links the housing societies and their facilities within each sector.
