DTCP action against illegal colony

The DTCP razes illegal colony developments in Gurgaon as part of a massive ongoing crackdown on unauthorized construction. Specifically, a team from the Department of Town and Country Planning (DTCP) demolished two illegal colonies spanning nearly 14 acres in Sultanpur village on Friday. Additionally, enforcement officials dismantled an illegal commercial market in Alimuddinpur with assistance from Farukhnagar police.

| Primary Enforcement Target         | Sultanpur Village & Alimuddinpur       |
| Total Land Area Cleared            | 14 Acres (Across Two Unlicensed Sites) |
| Structures Demolished              | 30 DPCs, 600m Walls, 1 Farmhouse       |

Demolition Team Destroys Roads and Boundary Walls

The enforcement squad targeted key physical infrastructure to stop further illegal plotting activity in Sultanpur. Specifically, the team demolished 30 plinth-level DPC structures and 600 running metres of boundary walls.

Furthermore, officials bulldozed a 400-metre interlocking road network laid inside the unlicensed layouts. Consequently, removing these internal roads prevents developers from selling illegal plots to unsuspecting buyers. Meanwhile, the team also demolished an under-construction farmhouse operating without mandatory government approvals.

Commercial Market Demolished Near Birhera Mor

The DTCP extended its anti-encroachment drive into the revenue estate of Alimuddinpur village shortly after clearing Sultanpur. Specifically, enforcement crews flattened an illegal commercial market operating near Birhera Mor.

District Town Planner Amit Madholia warned that strict action against unauthorized plotting will continue across the Gurgaon region. Therefore, buyers must verify licensing details before purchasing land in rural revenue estates.

District Administration Intensifies Enforcement Across Rural Revenue Estates

The latest action forms part of a broader, intensified campaign targeting illegal colonies across peripheral Gurgaon villages. Specifically, the department maintains active surveillance on agricultural lands being carved into illegal plots without approved layouts.

Additionally, authorities are registering FIRs against unscrupulous colonisers who lure buyers with false promises of upcoming regularisation. Consequently, the DTCP advises prospective homebuyers to consult official land records before investing in non-licensed areas.
