nIn the wake of complaints against illegal colonisers duping people of their hard-earned money, the District administration has decided to lodge an FIRs against such a practice. The step has come to prevent illegal colonisers from constructing unathorised flats and houses.
District Town & Country Planning (Enforcement) wing of the Municipal Corporation Gurugram (MCG) will keep a tab on illegal constructions and colonies. Also, the expense of the demolition drive will be recovered from the colonizers. MCG’s Enforcement wing on Monday demolished 12 new constructions in the restricted 900-meter around the Indian Air Force (IAF) depot in Gurugram.
The enforcement wing of the MCG demolished 10 new constructions/under construction building at Noble Enclave and 2 at Dharam colony. “The colonizers are promoting illegal construction without having a valid licence in the area. Despite several warning, they had constructed an illegal colony,” an official with the MCG (enforcement) wing said.
The officials claimed that the developers did not stop the construction work in unauthorised colonies despite the fact that they imposed a ban on registries and also conducted demolition in these areas.
Moreover, the buyers would get trapped once they will invest money in such illegal colonies where no development will take place in future.
“Developers are not mending their ways despite several demolition drives so FIR is the last option. The demolition cost will als recover from the colonizers. The action aims at saving people who are duped by such colonizers of lakhs of rupees for purchasing land in such colonies,” Yashpal Yadav, Commissioner MCG, said.
“We have directed the concern agencies to inspect areas under their jurisdictions and file complaints with police wherever unauthorised
constructions are found,” he said.
It is pertinent to mention that the Punjab and Haryana High Court has been ordered that no new construction will be allowed in the restricted 900-meter air force station Gurugram. “Continuous action is being taken by the Municipal Corporation from time to time in the compliance of these orders. The municipal corporation and district administration will not allow any kind of ne construction in the restricted area and legal action will be brought in line with the rules related to the related construction,” Yadav said.
