Despite tall claims by the authorities, construction of illegal extra floors is rampant on the plots allotted to the economically weaker section (EWS) at DLF Phase-III. The city administration claimed to have sent legal notices to the plot-owners and initiating action against them. The residents of non-EWS society feel that the authorities are not taking enough action against such building law violations.
Deputy commissioner PC Meena claims to have asked the senior town planner (STP) to take all appropriate action in this regard. Residents’ comments have come in wake of DC’s claim to have asked STP and district town planner (enforcement) to take needful action.
“We have got complaints against illegal floors in EWS flats and we have asked the STP and DTP (enforcement) to take action and we have sought action taken report as well,” Meena said.
It is worth noticing that over three thousand EWS free-hold plots were allotted at DLF-III by the realty developer and the town planning department had sanctioned only two and half floors on each plot.
“Against the sanctioned permission, people have added extra floors,” said J Kapoor, a resident of DLF Phase-III, adding flats up to five and six floors can be seen in the area.
Not only residents, who are directly affected due to extra floors and population growth, the DLF management too has lodged official complaints with the Gurgaon administration.
“It is administration’s responsibility to take action against illegal or extra floors and floor owners,” said a DLF management official, on condition anonymity.
