NOIDA: The Noida Authority on Thursday flattened nearly 90 acres of encroached government land valued at about Rs 10,000 crore from three major sectors in Noida. Toughening its stance against all encroachers, the Authority has also warned that it will start taking up demolitions of all illegal constructions that have sprung up across the city.

The anti-encroachment cell of the Authority, led by the work circle officer of the area, in a joint operation with the district police removed illegal occupation from Sectors 62, 63 and 64 in an operation that lasted almost five hours. The action started around 11am and continued till 4pm. Besides freeing about 50 acres of land from Sector 62 and 40 acres from Sector 63, the teams also freed a huge portion of their land near NH-24 from Sector 64.

Half a dozen bulldozers demolished about 200 scrap dealer?s makeshift structures that had been constructed in the area besides razing around 350 JJ clusters. ?The land mafia has been very active and several persons had constructed these structures on Authority land. This land is worth Rs 10,000 crore and was acquired several years ago and earmarked for industrial and institutional use,? said a Noida Authority official. The Authority will now construct a boundary wall of the said areas to avoid future encroachment.

Also, in an attempt to bring ?some order? in the city and to deal with rampant ?unauthorized? constructions and encroachment, Authority officials have warned that notices would soon be sent to plot owners who have left their plots vacant as it has been done in Greater Noida. ?These plots may face cancellation if construction is not carried out by the owners,? said an official.

Earlier in February, the Authority via a public notice had announced that it would flatten illegal constructions that have been built in residential, industrial, institutional and commercial areas. ?We will not only bring down such structures but will also bill the violators for the demolition process undertaken and recover the charges from them,? an Authority official said.

The move follows several complaints received from locals and Resident Welfare Associations about unauthorized land use and widespread encroachment of vacant plots and pavements by residents, trespassers, vendors and slum dwellers. The Authority then documented a new policy to check encroachments in Noida. ?Random structures which have come up on the storm-water drains, unauthorized car parking lots, shops, gardens, ramps and the likes at various places, will also be brought down,? officials warned.
