GURUGRAM: The town and country planning department executed a large-scale demolition drive, clearing six illegal colonies spread across 30 acres in the villages of Alipur, Raisina, and Bhondsi of Sohna tehsil.
According to officials, the operation was carried out with police support and resulted in the demolition of around 40 unauthorised structures, including shops, offices, guard rooms, entry gates, and road networks.
The official added that the department is carrying out drives on the outskirts of the city against illegal construction, but people are using gaps to carve out unauthorized colonies.
In Alipur, a new unauthorized colony of 3 acres was demolished, including a property dealer’s office and a 400-meter interlocking tiles road network.

Additionally, two unauthorized colonies named Sheh Vihar on 66ft Road in the same village of 6 acres, were also demolished. This drive resulted in the demolition of three structures, three shops, and twenty other under-construction properties,” said an official.
