DTCP Demolishes Illegal Colonies in Haryana

The Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP) in Haryana has initiated a large-scale demolition drive to dismantle nine illegal colonies spread across the Sultanpur and Farrukhnagar regions. The operation is part of DTCP's ongoing efforts to address unauthorized development and enforce land-use regulations strictly within the state.

This move targets colonies that were constructed without requisite approvals, violating Haryana’s urban planning laws. These colonies reportedly lack essential infrastructure such as proper roads, drainage systems, and access to basic utilities. DTCP’s decision underscores its commitment to curbing unregulated growth that strains resources, compromises planned development, and can potentially impact surrounding legal residential areas.

DTCP officials coordinated with local law enforcement to ensure the safe execution of the demolition process. Notices had been issued to the residents and developers of these illegal settlements, providing them time to vacate. The demolition operation, although disruptive to residents, aims to restore urban planning order and deter similar unauthorized developments in the future.

This is part of a larger strategy by Haryana’s urban authorities to preserve regulated development in regions experiencing rapid urbanization. By tackling such unauthorized constructions, the DTCP aims to promote legally compliant and well-planned urban growth in the state. Further demolition drives are anticipated as the department continues to survey other areas with potential unauthorized developments.
