Urgent need to look into working of Jammu Development Authority?


S. Sidartha Paramedical Training Institute, Sunjwan, Jammu

JAMMU, Feb 10:  It has been reported that one applicant submitted a commercial plan for sanction, which was further forwarded by JDA to concerned for NOC vide submit No. 209 dated 30.05.2013. Municipal Bye Laws of 2011 in Chapter 3 speaks as “If NOC not issued by the concerned within three weeks, it shall be deemed as NOC”.

Thereafter STP, JDA vide No. 539-41 dated  26.07.2013 communicated to DLM, JDA, who resides in the same complex & AC(R) Samba to issue NOC within two days otherwise building permission case will be deemed to have been cleared.

It is also reported that her commercial plan was put with a new condition of NOC from UTEIC in later stage, which the applicant got. To save her from the harassment for sanction of her plan she requested for residential sanction, which was done. Thereafter applicant again requested for commercial sanction, which she is waiting till date despite all NOC of UTEIC members.

It is the need of the day to write that UTEIC order issued vide Govt. order No.190-HUD Of 2001 dated 14.08.2001 clearly speaks for the said NOC for the Commercial buildings on National highway or near the vicinity where the density of traffic is too high. It is a matter of great concern that there is no any density of traffic on Birpur road & JDA has sanctioned lot of big plans without UTEIC NOC & still permitting lot of big constructions on NH without sanctioned plans is needed to be enquired.

On the intervention of DivCom Jammu a commission was constituted by D.C Samba for demarcation of land. A.C(R) Samba vide No. DCS/SQ/14-15/804 dated  28.10.2014 established that applicant purchased 3 K of land & is in revenue records till date however on spot 2K 4M land is available.

Applicant informed that it stands represented to VC,JDA for compensation of 16 M land, duly receipt No. 2154, 3698 but no actions followed by other requests. Thereafter another  representation was made and the matter was personally informed to VC,JDA with representation but applicant informed that her case has been rejected by the big bosses for vested considerations.

Applicant informed that on her representation the revenue officials of JDA commented that the said land may have been utilized in road followed by that case cannot be considered & applicant may approach the “Appropriate forum”. It is very interesting to write here that if the land in depth is in encroachment of JDA in construction of Birpur Colony then which is the appropriate forum a matter of enquiry to save the innocent from the cruel clutches of the officials of JDA. Authorities were requested to write to DC,Samba for nishandehi of the land to sort out the issue but replied to approach yourself is a proved case of harassment to the applicant.

Applicant through RTI reply vide No.600 dated 31.08.2015 got information that 24 No. of plans has been sanctioned by JDA without NOC from UTEIC during last 5 years, in which it has been found that Banquet halls has been approved on residential use lands but vide dated 20.06.2015 informed that 27 No. of plans has been sanctioned without UTEIC, NOC in last 5 years, a contradictory information including Banquets, ETT college etc., but a small structure of 4500 sft. malafiedly was sent for UTEIC, NOC needed to be enquired to detect pick & choose scam for sanction of plans, which clearly speaks of vested considerations of the big bosses of Jammu Development Authority.

It is pertinent to mention here regarding the working of revenue wing of JDA that number of plans are withhold by them for NOC for construction of their houses since 01-09-2015 are as mentioned below:-

 

Dept

Plans Submitted

Completed

Pending

JMC

321

112

209

JDA

92

36

56

 It is need of the day to enquire that when DLM & his team has to see only that whether the said plot is private or JDA land & registry speaks the ownership than why is withholding NOC’s.

 Shall Governor initiate actions under rules on such like officer for violation of Master plan of 2011, PSGA of 2011 or COBOR of 1988 to teach a lesson of noncompliance to save the innocents in near future or withdraw the orders as mentioned above, which is otherwise seems to be as an eye wash?
