Delhi Town Planning To Cancel Plot Allotment On Violating Building Norms
To curb illegal constructions in DLF Phase-3, particularly in the plots meant for the EWS category, the department of town and country planning (DTCP) has decided to start a drive to disconnect water, power and sewage connections of such plots and eventually cancel their allotment. DTCP said that there have been rampant construction violations and those related to the transfer of ownership in EWS plots. To pursue this matter, the department has sought information the licensee of the colony — DLF. To carry out a concerted drive, the DTCP has asked the developer to share a plot-wise detailed list, mentioning the original allotment status along with the details of the change in ownership for EWS category plots. It has also asked the company to share allotment letters and builder-buyer agreements with the allottees. It has also asked for EWS plots details in which buyers have constructed beyond permissible limits or have made illegal transfers should be identified and the list should be shared with us. We have also sought an action plan for disconnection and suspension of services to these plots. Once these violators are identified, the proposal to cancel the allotments of these property owners will be discussed in detail, the department is working out legal modalities for the cancellation of allotment. The notice issued by the department said that Gurugram being in seismic zone- 4, needs to be prepared for any natural calamity. Although efforts, such as issuance of notices, sealing drives and even demolition drives, have been executed, but the situation has become worse, it stated. Demolition drives have been carried out but there is a need for more concerted action against such structures.
