CMDA — Subject: Request for Action on Illegal Occupation of Parking/Common Area Reference to Muthalvarin Mugavari Complaint No. 1765427

Address: No 9 pavithra nagar,sennirkuppam,karaiyanchavdi

To
The Member Secretary
Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority (CMDA)
Chennai – 600 008.

Subject: Complaint regarding unauthorized encroachment and illegal construction in the common parking area of a CMDA-approved layout – Request for immediate inspection and enforcement action.

Respected Sir/Madam,

I, Revathi D, am a resident of No. 9, Pavithra Nagar, Sennirkuppam, Karaiyanchavadi, Poonamallee Taluk, Tiruvallur District, respectfully submit the following for your kind consideration.

Our property is situated in Pavithra Nagar, which is a CMDA-approved layout bearing PPD/LO.No.136/2003 and Letter No. L1/36502/2003 dated 12.12.2003. The planning permission was granted by the Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority (CMDA).

I wish to bring to your notice that an unauthorized encroachment and construction has been carried out in the common parking area meant for the use of all apartment owners. The encroached portion is being exclusively occupied and used for parking cars and two-wheelers, thereby depriving other residents of their lawful right to use the common area.

The unauthorized construction and occupation of the common parking area appear to be contrary to the approved CMDA layout and planning permission, thereby affecting the rights of all residents and obstructing the intended common facilities.

I therefore request the CMDA to kindly:

Conduct an immediate site inspection through the concerned CMDA Enforcement Wing.
Verify the construction with reference to the approved CMDA layout and sanctioned building plan.
Inspect whether the common parking area has been illegally encroached upon or altered in violation of the approved plan.
Initiate appropriate action under the provisions of the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act, 1971, and other applicable laws against the unauthorized construction and encroachment.
Direct the owner(s) responsible to remove the unauthorized construction and restore the common parking area to its original approved condition.
Coordinate with the Tahsildar, Government Surveyor, Revenue Inspector, Village Administrative Officer (VAO), and the concerned Local Body wherever necessary to verify land boundaries and remove the encroachment.
Inform me of the action taken on this complaint.

I am enclosing copies of the following documents for your reference:

Copy of the CMDA-approved layout/planning permission.
Sale Deed.
Photographs showing the unauthorized encroachment and construction.
Any other relevant supporting documents.

I kindly request your good office to treat this matter as urgent, as the unauthorized occupation of the common parking area is causing hardship to the residents and is a continuing violation of the approved CMDA plan.

I shall be grateful for your prompt intervention and necessary action.

Thanking you.

Yours faithfully,

Revathi D

Respected Sir/Madam,

I submitted an RTI application bearing No. MUNIC/R/2026/60281 regarding the complaint concerning the alleged encroachment, unauthorised utilisation and permanent construction in the common parking/driveway area at No. 9, Pavithra Nagar, Sennirkuppam, Poonamallee Taluk, Tiruvallur District, Survey No. 103/41.

In connection with this matter, the Chennai Metropolitan Development Authority (CMDA) had already issued an official letter dated 17.08.2026 forwarding my complaint to the concerned Block Development Officer (BDO), Poonamallee, for verification and necessary action, with a request to furnish an Action Taken Report (ATR) to CMDA.

However, despite the CMDA communication, the BDO and the Government Surveyor, or any other concerned Revenue/Local Body/Planning Authority officer, have not visited the site and conducted a proper comprehensive field inspection and survey. Therefore, the actual position at the site has still not been properly verified by the competent authorities.

The issue is not merely about parking. It concerns the alleged occupation and permanent construction in an area stated to be a common parking/driveway area. Therefore, proper field verification is necessary to determine the actual position and to verify the relevant approved layout, building plan, planning permission and revenue/survey records.

I respectfully request that the information relating to the action taken on my RTI application MUNIC/R/2026/60281 be provided, including the following:

Whether the BDO, Government Surveyor or any other concerned government officer has visited and inspected the site.
If any inspection was conducted, kindly provide the inspection report, survey report and related records.
If no inspection was conducted, kindly provide the recorded reason for the same.
Provide copies of correspondence/orders issued to the BDO, Surveyor and other concerned officials regarding this complaint.
Provide the Action Taken Report submitted to CMDA, if any.
Provide the present status of the complaint and the action proposed to be taken.

I am a working person and it is difficult for me to visit government offices repeatedly. I therefore request that the necessary information and action be communicated to me through online/email mode wherever possible.

Most importantly, I respectfully request CMDA to take necessary action on the complaint and its letter dated 17.08.2026, and to ensure that the concerned authorities conduct an actual field inspection and survey before arriving at any conclusion.

I further request that the complaint should not be closed merely on the basis of telephone conversations or verbal assurances. The matter may kindly be treated as resolved only after the competent authorities conduct the necessary inspection, take appropriate action and provide a written Action Taken Report.

I kindly request that the matter may be taken up urgently and necessary action may be initiated by the competent authority.

Yours faithfully,
Revathi Durairaj
