Gurgaon Seals 7 Buildings in Unauthorised Colony Crackdown
27 Oct
Summary
- Seven multi-storey buildings were sealed on Tuesday.
- An under-construction structure was demolished in Sector 72.
- Four floors of sealed buildings may face demolition.
Gurgaon's Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP) took decisive action on Tuesday, sealing seven multi-storey buildings and demolishing an under-construction structure within an unauthorised colony in Sector 72. This crackdown signifies an expansion of enforcement efforts into areas previously less scrutinized.
The enforcement team, led by district town planner (enforcement) Amit Madholia, carried out the operation. While seven buildings were sealed, a bulldozer was used to raze a structure still in its building phase. Officials reported significant construction in the unauthorised colony without the necessary approvals.
The DTCP is now preparing the necessary paperwork to proceed with the demolition of four floors of each of the seven sealed buildings. No specific timeline for this impending demolition has been announced. The department has stated its commitment to continuing actions against unauthorised constructions.
