Illegal Colonies In Gurugram Continues Despite Efforts From Officials

The business of non-regularised plotted colonies on agricultural land continues to flourish in Gurugram. The illegal colonies in Gurugram are taking place despite tightened Scrutiny from the Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP).

Many customers keep investing their money in these unlawful colonies despite the Department’s repeated warnings, not knowing that all of their funds could be lost.

When selling plots, the vendors and their representatives entice purchasers with a range of amenities. The amenities included roomy sections, well-built roads, sewage connections, and power sources.

The dealers disappear after the plots are sold, leaving the public at the agents’ mercy.

The Enforcement wing of the Department has demolished five illegal colonies being developed on 13.5 acres of land in Ghamroj, Bhondsi and Sehajawas of Sohna block. The action was taken in a fresh demolition derive.

DTCP (Enforcement), Manish Yadav, on illegal colonies in Gurugram said, “Without concerned authority’s approval, no new colony will be allowed to develop. FIR will be lodged against the land owner and land mafia. A letter has been written to the Tehsildar concerned that he should not register agricultural land in pieces in these colonies which are developing illegally. The cost of demolition will also be recovered from the land owners.”

“We also appealed to people to not invest in these illegal colonies. These illegal colonies come under section 7A of the Haryana Development and Regulation of Urban Areas Act. It is mandatory to take NOC from the Town and Country Planning Department before any activity,” he said.
