Unauthorised construction blight to city’s orderly development: Delhi HC

It was observed during dismissing an appeal against an order of demolition of unauthorised construction carried out in a property in south Delhi’s Hauz Khas.

NEW DELHI: Unlawful constructions are a nuisance to orderly development of the city of Delhi, which is already at its full mature capacity and cannot be allowed to continue to stand in perpetuity, the high court has observed. The observation came while dismissing an appeal against an order of demolition of unauthorised construction carried out in a property in south Delhi’s Hauz Khas.

Justice C Hari Shankar did not interfere with the September 14 order of a trial court, which had also dismissed the challenge to tribunal’s decision of ordering demolition of unauthorised construction on the property.

“Unauthorised constructions are a bane to orderly development of the city, which is already bursting at its seams and cannot be allowed to continue to stand in perpetuity,” Shankar said.

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) had issued a show cause notice way back in September 2011 alleging that unauthorised constructions had taken place at the property in Hauz Khas whereas the demolition order was issued in October that year.

The owner of the property challenged the show cause and demolition order before the high court in 2013, which had quashed the demolition order and asked the petitioner to give a reply to the notice.

The property was again booked for demolition with a notice on December 9, 2020, alleging more unauthorised construction there. The demolition order was challenged before the MCD tribunal, a trial court and the high court, which refused to grant any relief.

“It’s now nearly 10 years since the order dated February 8, 2013, was passed by this court…. It’s time that a quietus was arrived at and the dispute set at rest,” the high court said.

Breather for cooperative housing societies as AGMs & audit deadlines extended due to the back log because of Covid- Mumbai

According to housing society federations several societies took longer time this year to clear their audit for earlier fiscal 2020-21 due to Covid and thus had a backlog for recently ended fiscal 2021-22 to be cleared yet.

MUMBAI: Over 65,000 cooperative housing societies across Mumbai metro region have been offered extra time by the state government to hold their AGMs till December 31 and audit submissions till Oct 31.

The last date for AGMs and audit submission for the recently ended fiscal 2021-22 was set as September 30 which the Maharashtra Societies Welfare Association (MahaSeWA), a federation of cooperative societies in the state, wanted to be extended till the end of this year so that auditors and societies could get enough time to complete delayed accounting procedure without much hassles.

About only 25% societies have submitted their accounts so far with a many still remaining to complete the required formalities according to experts lookout.

Majority societies are already struggling hard to get their deemed conveyance (land title transfer to society from builder) and redevelopment approvals that have been stuck due to legal complexities and the red tape besides issues related to lack of unanimity among members, fee escalations, fights for nominations, titles and maintenance, and alleged corruption.

Poor performance of website in accepting audits online, lack of enthusiasm among administrators, lack of accountability in the process, and overloaded registrars who have to handle 2000 societies each are some of the other reasons that are leading to delays, say activists

In the absence of deemed conveyance the land ownership of housing societies is still in the hands of builders who rent out terraces to cell tower and advertisement companies, besides selling or using parking, TDRs and FSIs to earn money.

Since conveyance and redevelopment had to go through multiple state government departments, they were taking much longer time, say cooperative activists however pointing out that conveyance proposals were getting cleared faster after reaching the consumer court.

Illegal structures survey begins in forest areas of four villages of Faridabad

GURUGRAM: In forest areas of four villages of Faridabad, the Haryana government has started the verification of structures built. Officials in the forest department said they would need four days to verify the status of the land and anyone found to have built the structures illegally would be sent show-cause notices from next week.

Supreme Court order of July 21 states that the land notified under special orders of Section 4 of the Punjab Land Preservation Act, 1990, should be treated as forest and Provisions of the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980, would be applicable in these areas.

Some of the villages where land is notified under the PLPA are Ankhir, Mewla, Maharajpur, Anangpur and Lakkarpur. According to forest department’s data, around 850 acres are notified under Section 4 of the PLPA in these four villages. Officials said mostly small farmhouses and boundary walls are built on the land.

Raj Kumar, divisional forest officer of Faridabad said, “We have prepared a list of such properties and started the verification of land documents. We are assessing the status of the land in the four villages where constructions have taken place in forest areas. Once the documents are scanned, the owners of illegal properties would be sent notices from next week,”

Additional chief secretary (forest and wildlife) Vineet Garg said the properties built before October 24, 1980 — when the Forest (Conservation) Act came into effect — would be exempt from demolition if the owners submit evidence.

In keeping with the Supreme Court order, Garg had on September 14 directed the Faridabad district forest officer to “prepare the list of structures, based on satellite image, drone-mapping along with ground report… so as to ensure that no unauthorised structures are left behind.”

The SC judgment — in the Narinder Singh Vs Divesh Bhutani case — was based on appeals filed by property owners against a 2013 NGT order, which had restrained any non-forest activities on PLPA-notified land in Anangpur.

Another appeal that had been clubbed to the petition was against a notice to remove illegal farmhouses and banquet halls on forest lands in Anangpur, Ankhir and Mewla Maharajpur.

PLPA, enacted in 1990 to preserve land from erosion, is currently applicable in 10 districts of Haryana — Panchkula, Ambala, Yamuna Nagar, Nuh, Gurgaon, Palwal, Faridabad, Mahendergarh, Rewari and Bhiwani.

So far, the government has sent show-cause notices to the owners of more than 130 structures built illegally in the Aravalis in Faridabad.
