Address:	Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, 530003

Vizag is going to be smart city in making and best example of how all rules are broken by government as well as it's officers.

Few days back there was a survey conducted where beautification of vizag beach road was prioritized against several other activities, to give a boost to image of visakhapatnam as well as draw tourism attention.

Now under the nose of gvmc this vendor who has got on long term lease the green belt land for carrying commercial activities in the name of bay fashion, silver spoon restaurant & new ice cream parlour is just gradually making permanent structures all around the area. Infact several reminders from resident to gvmc authorities and building inspectors got un-noticed and this person kept on building, building and making live of all residents worst by stocking all garbage at the lane behind.

Anyways, there are only few places left around our lives to be called as green and such act which looks permissible by gvmc are very discouraging.

Through this forum we residents of ocean view layout immediate seek a relief from gvmc as they have already broken the norms by allocating green belt land to vendors for revenue purpose, leaving several other revenue opportunities.

Gvmc on same land constructed toilets, substations and now this vendor who got special privileges from gvmc. Other vendors who are leased the land on beach road have not such preference then why this vendor?

High court of andhra pradesh have already gave strict warning to gvmc earlier for not using green belt for any construction activities.
