Gurugram officials have taken action against building code violations, sealing two residential properties in DLF 1 and an unauthorized office in Palm Springs Plaza's basement. The properties had breached provisions of the occupation certificate and Haryana Building Code, leading the Department of Town and Country Planning to enforce the closures. The crackdown emphasizes the local government's dedication to upholding regulations and maintaining a safe living and working environment, as Gurugram continues to grow and develop.
Gurugram officials have taken decisive action against building code violations in the city. In response to complaints received via the CM window, District Town Planner (Enforcement) Manish Yadav led enforcement actions against two residential properties in DLF 1 and an unauthorized office operating in the basement of Palm Springs Plaza on Golf Course Road. The properties violated provisions of the occupation certificate, prompting the Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP) to seal the buildings.
Both residential properties in DLF 1 had illegal constructions in the stilt areas, violating the Haryana Building Code. Property G 19/2 had a room constructed in the stilt area after obtaining the occupation certificate, while property G 19/17 carried out unauthorized construction in the form of a room in the stilt area and covered the cut-out area, among other violations. Consequently, three floors were sealed in property G 19/17 as part of the crackdown.
Meanwhile, an IT company's office, staffed by approximately 15 employees, was found to be operating unlawfully from the basement of Palm Springs Plaza on Golf Course Road. The space, leased to Mojo Innovative, was being used as a data centre, housing computers and servers. However, the staff present could not explain the nature of their business activities, raising suspicions about the legality of the operations.
Yadav clarified that basements are permitted for storage and parking purposes only, with commercial use of the area being strictly prohibited. Violating these norms can lead to severe penalties and legal consequences for property owners and businesses alike.
In addition to the residential properties and unauthorized office, the enforcement team also sealed an area encroached by a cafe on Golf Course Road. This action further demonstrates the local government's commitment to upholding regulations and ensuring a safe living and working environment for its residents.
As Gurugram continues to grow and develop, it is crucial for authorities to maintain strict vigilance and enforce building codes and zoning regulations. These actions not only ensure the safety and well-being of residents but also contribute to the orderly and sustainable development of the city.
The recent enforcement actions serve as a reminder to property owners and businesses to remain compliant with building codes and zoning regulations. Authorities are likely to continue their efforts to identify and address violations throughout the city, ensuring the safety of Gurugram's residents and the long-term success of its development.
