In a bid to facilitate smooth flow of traffic, the Gurgaon police have decided to ban cycle- rickshaws on this road from April 1. If the move is successful, they plan to restrict rickshaws to the old city.

Most people in Gurgaon use rickshaws to visit the dozen- odd malls on the road.

By banning rickshaws, the police hope to avoid the long pile- up of vehicles that block traffic on the road connecting the cyber city to the Capital.

" During weekends, shoppers congest this busy road. We have received several complaints about rickshaws causing traffic jams on the road," Gurgaon police commissioner S. S. Deswal said. The police recently had a meeting with the Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon ( MCG) where it was decided to make the road " rickshaw- and cycle- free". " We expect resistance from rickshawpullers, but we have to make the flow of traffic smooth on important roads," Deswal added.

At a time when the national capital region (NCR) is flooded with FM stations playing the latest music, a Gurgaon-based NGO has started a radio station run by villagers.

The only civil society-led community radio station in the NCR, Gurgaon Ki Awaaz Samudayik Radio Station, broadcast on 107.8 MHz FM, is a platform for and by the marginalised community groups in Gurgaon-- villagers and migrant workers.

'The station is supported by The Restoring Force (TRF), an NGO that works in government schools in Gurgaon district, primarily in the area of infrastructure enhancement,' said Arti Jaiman, project manager of the community radio.

It was launched Nov 19, 2009, after several months of training for its team of raw village recruits, most of whom had never even worked on a computer before. Broadcast in Hindi and Haryanvi, it is run by a team of people, the bulk of whom come from these target communities within Gurgaon.

जिस भूमि पर ये शोरूम बनाए गए हैं, उसे अधिग्रहण करने के लिए भूमि अधिग्रहण अधिनियम के तहत हरियाणा शहरी विकास प्राधिकरण ने नोटिस जारी किए हुए हैं। भारी पुलिस बल की मौजूदगी में की गई कार्रवाई के दौरान दस्ते को किसी के विरोध का सामना नहीं करना पड़ा। शुक्रवार को जिला नगर योजनाकार एन्फोर्समेंट, डीटीपीई, अधिकारी भुवनेश कुमार के नेतृत्व में तोड़फोड़ दस्ता सोहना रोड बादशाहपुर पहुंचा। मुख्य सड़क के किनारे बनाई जा रही इन दुकानों को तीन जेसीबी के मदद से तोड़ना शुरू किया। कोई अप्रिय घटना न हो, इसके लिए सहायक पुलिस आयुक्त ताहिर हुसैन, बादशाहपुर थाना प्रभारी संजय कुमार भारी पुलिस बल के साथ मौके पर मौजूद थे। ड्यूटी मजिस्ट्रेट नायब तहसीलदार संदीप दहिया ने पुलिस को स्पष्ट निर्देश दिए कि तोड़फोड़ की कार्रवाई में व्यवधान न हो, इसलिए मौके पर कोई भीड़ जमा न होने दी जाए। डीटीपीई भुवनेश कुमार ने कहा कि उपायुक्त राजेंद्र कटारिया के स्पष्ट निर्देश हैं कि अनधिकृत निर्माण न होने दिए जाएं। ये शोरूम मुख्य सड़क पर उस भूमि पर बनाए गए थे, जिसके अधिग्रहण की प्रक्रिया शुरू भी हो चुकी है।

उन्होंने कहा कि कंट्रोल एरिया एक्ट के तहत तोड़फोड़ की कार्रवाई की गई। उन्होंने कहा कि तोड़फोड़ के दौरान किसी तरह के विरोध का सामना नहीं करना पड़ा। निर्माण हटाने के नोटिस पहले ही दिए जा चुके थे। इसके बाद भी शोरूम बनाए जा रहे थे।

The premises and the common areas of the complex were physically handed over to the RWA but the title of the land is still with the DLF Ltd. Condominium Association approached the DTCP for the transfer of the title of the land but has received no response from the department till now.
"Maharashtra ownership flats Act has rules that it is mandatory for the builders to transfer the tittle of the land to RWA upon 50% occupancy of the apartments. We feel to be at dead end when we get no response from the administration also," said S K Chowdhry, a resident.

The residents allege that the provisions of Haryana development & regulations of Urban Areas Act has failed to ensure the transfer of the title of the land to RWA from builders after the completion.

"It seems that the builders are holding on to the title of the land to perhaps inflate their land bank and have also staked a claim to make additions or raising extra floors or putting up extra structures as may be permitted by competent authorities through an arguable cause in the convenience deed drawn with the owner," said Nalin Sharma, a resident. Residents also approached the Municipal Commissioner to find a solution before taking the township from the developers.

The applications says the title of a land of a apartment complexes is transferred to RWA from the promoters, without the levy of stamp duty. Since the stamp duty for the proportional land share has already been paid by the individual apartment owner, or else the promoters will be asked to pay the property tax proportional to the cost of the land.

The villagers of Taj Nagar had collected money two months ago to fulfil their dream of having a railway station in their area. This inspired the residents of Wazirpur and nearby villages, who are now collecting money to repair a 9- km road that has been in a sorry state for the past few years. The Wazirpur- Farukh Nagar stretch is the main link between industrial hub Manesar and Gurgaon.

" We have written to the public works department ( PWD) repeatedly, but they only made false promises. A year ago they said the road would be repaired in three months, but no construction work has been carried out. After five years of pursuing the authorities, we have decided to take the matter in our own hands," said Maan Singh, a resident of Wazirpur village.

The bumpy 9- km stretch is used on a daily basis by thousands of commuters.

Singh and a few more residents of nearby villages have put up a tent on the roadside and started collecting funds from the commuters.

" Someone has to take the initiative.

एसोसिएशन के प्रवक्ता सुरेश गुप्ता ने कहा कि गेस्ट हाउस में रहने वाले युवा कानफोड़ू संगीत देर रात तक चलाते हैं। ऐसे में स्थानीय लोगों का जीना मुहाल हो जाता है। उन्होंने कहा कि सेक्टर 39 व इसके आसपास की कालोनियों में गेस्ट हाउस से स्थानीय निवासियों का जीना दूभर हो गया।

उन्होंने कहा कि त्रिमुर्ति, सेक्टर 39 व इसके आस पास बनी कालोनियों में गेस्ट हाउस के बोर्ड टंगे हैं, लेकिन प्रशासन चुप्पी साधे हैं। उन्होंने कहा कि ये गेस्ट हाउस सुरक्षा की दृष्टि से भी खतरनाक है। इन गेस्ट हाउसों में किस तरह का आदमी रह रहा है उसका पता गेस्ट हाउस मालिकों के पास भी नहीं है। ऐसे में असमाजिक तत्व इन गेस्ट हाउसों में बेरोकटोक आसानी से शरण पा लेते हैं। इससे पहले शहर में कोई बड़ा हादसा हो और लोग गेस्ट हाउस से तंग आकर सड़कों पर उतर आए, प्रशासन अवैध रूप से चल रहे गेस्ट हाउसों को बंद कराए।

In July 2006, D'Souza came to know that his home falls under the alignment of the 150- metre-wide, 17-km long Northern Peripheral Road (NPR) to connect Dwarka and NH-8, as proposed in the Draft Master Plan 2021 of Gurgaon.

D'Souza's home could be demolished to make way for this `ambitious' project. Since then, D'Souza hasn't slept well. And he isn't alone.

D'Souza is one among thou- sands of other retired defence and government employees and Kashmiri migrants who bought here plots in the early 90s.

"In July 2006, we got to know of the Haryana Government's plan to construct the NPR. We staged demonstrations and sub- mitted representations to the CM and Central government ministers. Nothing happened," said Kiran Kandpal, general sec- retary New Palam Vihar RWA.

"Finally, the court came to our rescue and issued a stay order against dispossession. But Haryana government officials keep harassing us," he added.

On January 28, the Punjab & Haryana High Court admitted the writ petition of affected res- idents. Despite court orders, state government officials began demarcation work and sent earthmovers to start work on the NPR, Kandpal said.

"We staged a six-day sit-in to protest and got the work stopped when the earthmovers turned up all of a sudden. We are being mentally harassed and tortured," he added.

The FIR against Jaipal Singh, Dinesh and Umesh Aggarwal of Mansarovar Properties was registered in Sadar Police Station on the complaint of District Town Planner (Enforcement).

The matter of a colony being developed illegally by some persons in a land under stay was brought to the notice of Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda by the villagers today when he was on tour
to Gurgaon following which he directed Deputy Commissioner Rajender Kataria to get the land vacated and ensure compliance of the High Court orders.

The land measuring about 5.5 acres was acquired by the state government in 1990 for developing Transport Nagar. At that time the land owners filed a Civil Writ Petition in the Punjab and Haryana High Court which was admitted and the court passed a dispossession order granting stay on the land.

Since 1990, the prime land situated on NH-8 was lying vacant. However, since last few years some people started developing an unauthorised colony on it and started selling plots. The site plan was supplied to various property dealers in the city.

When they bought houses in the upscale Ambience Lagoon apartments in Gurgaon, all they had hoped for was a peaceful retired life. However, together with a group of colleagues and other residents, they find themselves caught in a battle of a different nature. They are now up against the builder who they claim has been harassing them.

The retired Army officers allege the apartment's builder, Raj Singh Gehlot, threatened and abused them in front of a police officer and they were allegedly not allowed to file an FIR against the builder.

Though they managed to meet Gurgaon Police Commissioner once, after getting an appointment with him through Kiran Bedi, and the Deputy Commissioner of Police twice, the residents could not register an FIR.

"I cannot explain this feeling of helplessness. After so many years of serving the country, I find it hard to register an FIR, which is my right. The police are speaking in the same tone as the builder," Shankar said.

According to the Building and Other Construction Workers Act, a construction company that employs over 50 women as labourers has to provide a clean room and other basic facilities for their children up to the age of six.

"Most construction workers are couples who bring their small children along. These children have to endure the dust and unhygienic conditions at the sites every day. We have decided to set up creche where they will get free food, education and medical check-ups," M R Anand, a senior official with the Labour Welfare Board, Gurgaon, said.

Anand added they have identified land for setting up the creche, which would begin operations in three weeks.

According to the plan, more than 10 creches will be set up in the Gurgaon area. Construction workers can drop off their children at the creche in the morning and pick them up in the evening. Only children up to the age of seven will be taken in.

"Many of these children develop health problems. They are also deprived of an education," Anand said.

Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon (MCG) has often been at the receiving end for the concrete jungle that the Millennium City resembles. But now, acknowledging the importance of green areas, the civic body has come up with a plan to build a 160-acre biodiversity park in DLF Phase-III that will not only change the view of the area but also reinforce the ecology of Gurgaon.

``The project, which will cost around Rs 60 crore, will re-establish the local Aravali ecology and create a multifacet community resource. We will promote the development of green spaces that utilize native plants and will attempt to create a balance between development and ecological conservation though this park,'' said a senior Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon official.

The officials said development in Gurgaon has often come up at the cost of ecology and with the help of this project they hope to stem the loss of plant and animal species. MCG officials said the park would have amphitheatre, joggers path, children's park, botanical nursery, meditation grove and culture markers among other features.

Work on the fence the prop osed park has already been started.MCG believes because the park site is at the entrance to Gurg a o n , with an u n d eve l oped eastern edge, it enjoys a highly advantageous location. ``Its visibility and local linkages provide an ideal opportunity to develop it as an ecological and recreational amenity for the city's residents,'' said an official of the civic body. Physiographically, the site corresponds to the kohi habitat, an ecotone of Delhi that is characterized by rocky outcrops and thorny open-canopied vegetation.

शहर की 74 अवैध कालोनियों में से निगम करीब 37 कालोनियों का रिकार्ड, सर्वे रिपोर्ट सहित अन्य जानकारी चंडीगढ़ भेज चुका था। इनमें कुछ खामियों के चलते सरकार ने इनकी री-चेकिंग का निर्णय किया है। इसके कारण चंडीगढ़ पहुंचा सारा रिकार्ड एक बार फिर निगम को भेज दिया गया है। डिवीजनल कमिश्नर निगम द्वारा कराए गए सर्वे, संबंधित कालोनियों का रिकार्ड, नक्शे पर की गई मार्किंग सहित अन्य रिकार्ड खंगाल कर रहे हैं। किसी कालोनी में कोई परियोजना के लिए जमीन तो चिन्हित नहीं गई है, इस पर भी विशेष ध्यान दिया जा रहा है।

मालूम हो कि सरकार के निर्देश के बाद नगर निगम ने जो सर्वे रिपोर्ट चंडीगढ़ भेजी थी उसके तहत गुड़गांव की 74 कालोनियों को वैधता के दायरे में लाना था। इसके चलते इन कालोनियों में रहने वाले लोग प्रसन्न थे कि उन्हें भी अब अवैध के दंश से राहत मिल जाएगी, लेकिन उन्हें इसके लिए अभी और इंतजार करना होगा। निगम के चीफ इंजीनियर वीके गुप्ता व सहायक अभियंता बिल्डिंग कृष्ण कुमार यादव का कहना है कि सरकार के आदेश के बाद डिवीजनल कमिश्नर अवैध कालोनियों के सारे रिकार्ड की री-चेकिंग कर रहे हैं। इसके चलते अब उनके साथ एक-एक कालोनी जाने के साथ ही उनसे संबंधित रिकार्ड भी उन्हें दिखाया जा रहा है। इस नई प्रक्रिया से करीब छह कालोनियों के रिकार्ड को कमिश्नर ने हरी झंडी दिखा दी है।

"The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) will provide parking facilities at all the five Metro stations in Gurgaon," a senior DMRC official said.

Of the five, the largest parking space of 6,500 square metres will be at the HUDA City Centre station.

Parking lots will also be available at IFFCO Chowk, M.G. Road, Sikanderpur and Guru Dronacharya Metro stations of the Delhi Metro's under-construction Central Secretariat-Gurgaon corridor.

"At present, 59 of the 83 operational Metro stations have parking lots for the convenience of commuters. The total parking lots in the Delhi Metro will go up to 64 after the Gurgaon section is opened for the public," the official added.

An official also told IANS that while the Gurgaon section of the corridor will be opened to public by March, the remaining section of the corridor will be operational by May.

Trial runs on the seven-km-long elevated Gurgaon section will begin Jan 29.

With the new parking spaces in Gurgaon stations, the total parking space provided by the DMRC will be nearly 170,000 square metres in which approximately 15,000 four-wheelers and 20,000 two-wheelers can be accommodated.

The 12.53-km Central Secretariat-Qutub Minar section of the stretch is underground while the 14.47-km Qutub Minar-Gurgaon section is an elevated section. This metro line connects north and central Delhi to south Delhi and Gurgaon in Haryana.
