Residents have complaint regarding the sewage treatment plant (STP) that does not work in accordance with the rules, the society club is in a disarray and the swimming pool barely functional. There is no system for garbage segregation either, they said.
In Noida, on Sunday, around 100 residents of Ajnara Daffodil in Sector 137 took to streets against the builder for the alleged lack of basic amenities and gaps in infrastructure and other facilities in the society which were promised when flats were handed over to the homebuyers.
Residents have complaint regarding the sewage treatment plant (STP) that does not work in accordance with the rules, the society club is in a disarray and the swimming pool barely functional. There is no system for garbage segregation either, they said.
Ajay Kumar, a resident of Ajnara Daffodil said in a statement that, “The club remained closed for almost three years but the builder collected about Rs 1.44 crore per year from the residents. Still no facility is being provided in the club but club charges are being collected from prepaid meters. Water that leaks from the swimming pool ends up near the club and soaks a beam as well. Garbage has been lying all over the basement and the STP is not working,”
The flats were handed over for possession to buyers in 2018 after the launch of the project in 2010. Around 1,000 families are living in 1,200 flats in the society. Another resident, Arpit Chandra, said that homeowners were paying high maintenance charges despite the poor upkeep.
“We are paying Rs 6,000 per month. The club is in a mess, the swimming pool is not working. Now we want the builder to hand over the entire maintenance to our apartment owners’ association,” he said. When asked, the society’s maintenance head, Ram Manohar, appointed by the builder said, “We proposed three times that residents should take over maintenance but no one came forward. The garbage is segregated from here and goes to the Noida authority disposal plant,”
