llegal properties in Greater Noida are typically those built without proper approvals from GNIDA, violating building bylaws, or constructed on notified land without sanctioned plans. Shahberi, for instance, has been a notorious hotspot for such activities, especially after the 2018 twin building collapse that killed nine people, exposing rampant unauthorized development. GNIDA has since labeled many structures in this area as illegal, targeting them for demolition, though specific addresses are rarely publicized in accessible sources.
Based on historical reports and GNIDA’s actions, here are five examples of property types or locations in Greater Noida that have been flagged as illegal or faced enforcement, rather than specific named properties (since exact addresses aren’t consistently detailed in public data):
1. **Commercial Buildings in Shahberi (Targeted in 2019)**
– In July 2019, GNIDA planned to demolish five commercial buildings in Shahberi as a starting point for a broader crackdown. These were deemed illegal due to violations of residential land-use norms and lack of approved plans. While the exact buildings aren’t named, they represent a category of unauthorized commercial constructions in this village.
2. **Residential Structures in Shahberi (Pre-2019 Construction)**
– Over 1,000 residential buildings in Shahberi, including ground-plus-two and four-to-five-story structures, were identified as illegal by GNIDA in 2019. These were built post-2011, after Shahberi was denotified, and following a 2014 Allahabad High Court status quo order, making any construction there unauthorized.
3. **Buildings in Tilapta (Defence Empire Projects)**
– In 2019, GNIDA identified illegal land sales and constructions in Tilapta under projects named “Defence Empire 1” and “Defence Empire 2.” Around 200 houses were completed, and 100 more were under construction without GNIDA approval, leading to police action against builders like Balram Singh.
4. **Sia Residency in Roopwas**
– Also in 2019, approximately 100 houses under the “Sia Residency” project on Plot No. 3 Mi in Roopwas were flagged as illegal by GNIDA. These were part of unauthorized developments sold by builders like Prahlad Singh and Vijay Kumar, lacking proper permits.
5. **Encroached Land in Chhapraula (25,000 sqm Plot)**
– In December 2023, GNIDA demolished illegal constructions on 25,000 square meters of its land in Chhapraula, valued at ₹50 crore. This was an attempt to develop an unauthorized residential colony on notified land, though specific property names weren’t disclosed.
These examples reflect broader trends rather than pinpointing exact addresses, as GNIDA and media reports often focus on areas or projects rather than individual property listings. The authority’s ongoing efforts—such as denying power connections to illegal structures (decided in February 2024) and demolishing encroachments—suggest that many such properties persist, especially in notified villages like Shahberi, Tilapta, Roopwas, and Chhapraula.
For a definitive list of specific illegal properties as of today, you’d need to consult GNIDA directly (e.g., via their website www.greaternoidaauthority.in or an RTI request), as they maintain records of notified land and enforcement actions. My response is limited to synthesizing past incidents and patterns from available data, critically noting that the “establishment narrative” of blanket illegality in places like Shahberi has been contested by residents claiming legal purchases, though often without substantiating approvals. If you have a specific area or property in mind, let me know, and I can dig deeper within my capabilities!
