In the light of the Allahabad High Court order, the process for the manual draw of the cancelled residential scheme of the Noida Authority has been set in motion. It is understood the manual draw may be held by the last week of October.
The members of the special committee nominated by the high court to oversee the manual draw had contacted the CEO, Noida Authority, to obtain necessary information and data.
It may be recalled that the Allahabad High Court had cancelled the draw of residential scheme held by the Noida Authority with UPDESCO's help on October 4. The court had also ordered the Noida Authority to again hold a manual draw of the scheme under the supervision of a two-member committee appointed by the court within a month.
Principal Secretary, Agriculture, UP, J. B. Patnaik, and Varanasi Development Authority's Vice-Chairman Himanshu Kumar were nominated by the high court as members of the special committee under whose supervision the redraw of the scheme will be held.
Both these experts are understood to have spoken to the Deputy CEO Noida on phone last afternoon and sought information regarding documents and records of the scheme. Noida Authority CEO Saran is away on a foreign jaunt these days.
Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Noida Authority, Tanvir Zafar Ali, has been appointed the nodal officer for coordinating with the two-member committee for the draw and the CBI which has been asked by the high court to inquire into the bungling of the draw of the Noida Authority.
