Residents protest lack of infra, poor services by developer

Residents of BPTP Park Serene in Sector 37D on Sunday held a protest against the developer for failing to complete the installation of necessary infrastructure and providing inadequate services, despite obtaining an occupancy certificate (OC) from the Department of Town and Country Planning.

The president of the residents’ welfare association, PK Naithani, said that if problems faced by residents are not resolved soon, they will go on an indefinite strike. They alleged inaction by authorities despite repeated complaints filed against the developer.

The protesters said that the developer did complete pending works after getting a partial OC. “The sewage treatment plant (STP) is incomplete and has lesser than required capacity. The sewage water is not treated properly and is dumped on the roadside.
