Noida residents write to authority sharing concerns over unallotted buildings


 

Assuming that it has now become a law and order issue for residents, Janshkti Seva Samiti, a social organisation of active citizens from across Noida, has written to Ritu Maheshwari, chief executive officer with Noida Industrial Development Authority, demanding a solution to unallotted buildings.

The organisation has made a complaint about the issue. It said that the unallotted property, especially buildings in many residential pockets have illegally been occupied by anti-social elements. They have turned these buildings as shelters for them. 

AN Dhawan, chief patron of the organisation said that this illegal activity has been giving rise to law and order issues in many residential pockets. Considering this, a provision should immediately be made for renting or leasing out these properties to control the unlawful activities, he said. 

He suggested that it would bring dual benefit for the authority as it would earn some revenue by giving these properties on rent and would not require to run an anti-encroachment drive for clearing these properties in the future.
