MCG has set a deadline of September 30 to submit the revised estimates to the state government for upgrading the deficient infrastructure in the eight private developers’ colonies recently taken over by the civic body.
The tentative estimates for infrastructure augmentation were around Rs 8.5 crore for Sushant Lok 2, Rs 10 crore for Sushant Lok 3, Rs 8.5 crore for Ardee City, and Rs 14 crore for Malibu Towne. However, these estimates will be revised.
Tushar Yadav, Executive Engineer, MCG said, “We gave our presentation on the current status of services in these colonies. Recommendations were given for each colony but the estimates will have to be revised and sent to the State Government by September 30. In Vipul World for instance bituminous roads won’t survive due to water logging so the estimates prepared for the colony will have to be enhanced.
MCG took over seven private colonies – Malibu Towne, Ardee City, Rosewood City, Vipul Gardens, Uppal Southend, Sushant Lok2, and Sushant Lok 3 on June 15 and Greenwood City on August 29. The takeover of Mayfield Garden is still pending. The services taken over by the MCG include roads, water supply, sewerage systems, stormwater drains, and streetlights.
Harayana CM Manohar Lal Khattar announced the MCG takeover of 11 colonies- Malibu Towne, Ardee City, Rosewood City, Greenwood City, Mayfield Garden, Uppal Southend, Vipul Garnde, Sushant Lok 2 and 3, and DLF 4 and 5 in November 2019 under the second phase of transfers.
The residents of these colonies have long been demanding that the MCG expedite the takeover process, citing deteriorating civic infrastructure. In December MCG Councillors across the city took up the issue of colony transfer with the Harayana CM and urged him to expedite the process. The councillors and the residents had alleged that the process of colony transfer was going on at a very slow pace.
