Dainik Jagran — unauthorised persons living on the vacant plots of vipul khand, gomti nagar

Address:

Vipul Khand, Gomti Nagar, :Lucknow, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, 226010

Vipul khand is one of the most prestigious colonies of lda in gomti nagar.in vipul khand its sector 1 is most prestigious due to its location and the owners of the plots therein, which ranges from topmost bureaucrats, diplomats, ministers, politicians, industrialists, businessmen etc. There are many plots vacant since the absentee landlords of these do not bother to get their house constructed or even get their plot properly fenced. Apart from this they illegally allow to stay some miscreant elements to stay on their plot. These people build jhuggi there and start living. For their livelihood they start doing household works in the houses of other owners of vipul khand 1. Now when there is livelihood (Source of earning) and a place to live in, they invite their other relatives from their home villages, thereby increasing their population considerably. These people who are illiterate do not bother for planned family and having average children of 5 to 7 per couple. With time these children grew to teenagers. They make their friends from other areas and start visiting their places. Out of this crowd many started involving in petty thefts, teasing and other illegal activities. There are no sanitation measures in these temporary sheds (Jhuggis), so water, garbage, sewerage etc collects on the areas which causes severe threat for spreading of diseases and invite the stray animals like cow. Ox, bull, dogs etc in the area which poses danger for the residents living thereby. As per rules, byelaws and regulations the owners of these plots should complete their house building in the stipulated time as decided by lda, but nobody is bothering. This is resulting in the inconvenience, discomfort and threat to the safety of the residents of vipul khand. I request to the concerned authorities that these illegal temporary sheds (Jhuggis) built between the vacant plots between 1/65 vipul khand and 1/68 vipul khand should immediately be vacated from menace of these illegal miscreants. Further, the owner of these and other vacant plots of vipul khand 1 be served notice to get their houses build in a definite timeframe and get the completion certificate from lda.
