The Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) once again sealed the building of International Delhi Public School (IDPS), located in Basai Enclave, for violating building regulations on Monday.
The sealing operation was carried out by a team led by Assistant Engineer R.K. Mongia, along with Junior Engineers Varun and Hariom, and supported by a police force to ensure law and order during the action. This is not the first time the school building has faced action. Earlier, on June 18, the MCG had sealed the premises for unauthorized construction.
However, in a blatant defiance of the law, the owners broke the seal and resumed operations. Taking serious note of this violation, the corporation lodged an FIR against the building owners and re-initiated the sealing process.
According to MCG officials, the IDPS building was constructed without obtaining the necessary approvals from the MCG. Despite being issued multiple notices, the building owners failed to respond or regularize the construction.
The officials further stated that the structure lacks the mandatory construction permissions, prompting the enforcement action.
“The building owners were given several warnings and notices to comply with the regulations, but they continued to ignore the rules,” said an MCG official.
“This sealing was carried out with police assistance to ensure no further violations occur. Such actions will continue against illegal constructions in the city.”
The corporation has also directed its officials to intensify monitoring of ongoing construction activities to prevent similar violations. Additionally, residents have been urged to report any unauthorized construction to the municipal authorities, assuring swift action against offenders.
