Ghaziabad Residents Protest Over Unresolved Housing Issues
People living in an apartment building in Ghaziabad are upset.
Their basement flooded due to construction nearby, and it still smells bad.
They also have trouble parking, and the water might be unsafe to drink.
They say the building isn't being maintained well and the management isn't keeping their promises.
The residents are protesting because they pay high fees but are unhappy with the results.
The builder says they are working on the repairs, but the residents disagree.
Authorities are now investigating the problems to find solutions.
Residents of Prateek Grand City protested over unresolved issues.
The protest took place 18 days after the sub-basement flooded.
Key issues include a foul-smelling basement, unsafe drinking water (E. coli contamination), and parking difficulties.
