Awadh Apartment Residents Raise Safety Concerns Over Encroachments
Imagine a building where people are building things they aren't supposed to, like extra rooms and fences.
The people who live there are worried because these new things might make the building unsafe.
They've complained to the government, but nothing much has happened yet.
The government sent notices to the people building the extra things, but they didn't follow the rules correctly, so the notices got canceled.
The residents are still worried and want the government to fix the problem and make sure the building is safe for everyone.
Residents of Awadh Apartment in Lucknow are concerned about safety due to unauthorized constructions.
Illegal structures include sheds, gates, and guesthouses, allegedly built by influential individuals.
Residents met with the Chief Minister in September 2023 to flag the issue.
The LDA issued notices to the encroachers, but residents claim no effective action followed.
A recent notice on Dec 16, 2023 included photographic evidence of the constructions.
