The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) sealed 38 properties, including 14 in Ranip and 10 in Vastral, over non-compliance with building-use permits. In addition to sealing buildings, AMC embarked on a demolition spree, razing illegal constructions in the historic Walled City. An illegal structure spanning 490 square meters in Shahpur and unauthorized constructions over 13,080 square meters in Danilimda were dismantled. This enforcement highlights AMC's determination to uphold building regulations, underscoring the necessity of legal compliance in urban development.
In a sweeping move to enforce building use permits, the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) sealed a total of 38 properties across different localities of the city, citing lack of valid building-use (BU) permissions. Among the sealed properties were a building in Sarkhei, 14 in Ranip, and 10 in Vastral.
This enforcement action took place last week when the AMC's estate management department initiated a city-wide operation to clamp down on non-compliant structures. In a bid to clean up the cityscape, the AMC did not limit its enforcement to merely sealing properties. It also commenced the dismantlement of illegal constructions in the historic Walled City area.
In a public statement, AMC shared the details of its decisive action. An illegally erected structure sprawling over 490 sq meters near Halim Ni Khadki in Shahpur was reduced to rubble. Similarly, a vast expanse of unauthorized construction covering 13,080 sq meters within a residential scheme in Danilimda was also demolished.
In conclusion the sealing and demolition by the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation mark a stringent enforcement of city building codes and regulations. This decisive move underscores AMC's commitment to urban development, emphasizing the significance of legal compliance in property construction and use.
The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) is the governing body responsible for the administration and development of Ahmedabad, a major city in the Indian state of Gujarat. Established in 1950, the AMC is entrusted with various functions such as urban planning, infrastructure development, public health, sanitation, education, and maintaining civic amenities.
