Illegal Buildings Continue to Rise in Nellore Despite NMC Crackdown · deccanchronicle.com

In Nellore, people are building houses and shops illegally, even though the city government is trying to stop them.

The government has told officials to check these buildings and punish those who break the rules.

But people say nothing has changed; buildings are still being built without proper parking spaces, and they are taking over roads.

Some property owners say they have to pay bribes to get permission to build.

The government says they are checking more and will punish anyone who breaks the rules.

Experts warn that if this continues, it will cause more traffic and flooding.
