Dwarka Sector -19

 

Sir,

I want to draw you attention on the construction of Vegas Mall at Sector 14, Dwarka.Construction of this mall has become nightmare for the residents of Sector 13 and 14.Dust and crush of stone is the only article which is visible all around the area. We are surprised to see that even stone crusher machine is being operated just 10-20 meter away from Radhika Apartment. Residents are in danger and requesting the construction company to take care but it appears they have no regard whatsoever and not taking any action.

I further want to draw your attention on the order of NGT (National Green Tribunal) in original application no 95 of 2014 and order dated 7th April 2015(Copy attached).It clearly says that pollution resulting from construction and other allied activities emitting heavy dust contained in the air and it must be dealt with care as per norms. If preventive and precautionary measures are not taken by the builder on pollution control then it is total non-compliance of MOEF Guidelines 2010 and NGT order no. 95.It’s a clear case of negligence by all public authorities including Police (local SHO).

 It further says that all authority including Police must ensure the compliance of the order. Since the construction company is violating the order of NGT we request you to file FIR against the company concerned. Keeping in view the grave threat to health of citizens, the construction activity be immediately put on halt & crusher be sealed

For any further assistance in the matter Forum will give all the assistance to you and your officer.


Regards

Sushil Kumar

President

I take this opportunity and request to apprise what happened or what is the outcome of the meeting DF had with the new DCP on 18th (I suppose).  Is he serious building sand castles in the air.

One really is extremely surprised at the apathy & insensitivity of all the concerned local authorities to very grave environmental violations.

Despite pointing out by DF,though it is not reqd,there is no action!!!

I must say Dwarakites need to get together to work out an Action Plan to make authorities see reason/move on their own.

Change of attitude is imperative.

Writing to----, it appears  is  not making much difference.!!?

Writing and continuous persuing the matter pays and it seems it works. May be not 100%.

Today I got a call from CM, NCT Delhi office asking for feedback on the grievances raised by me. I was unable to provide the ground reality as I am out of Delhi. I was very obliged that they will revert me back on my return to Delhi. 

We all live on expectations and that must be high.

On behalf of residents of Dwarka request you to take action against the construction company for not compliance of the order of NGT especially when there is regular media report about the level of air pollutant in Delhi .


Sir,we are not against any development in the sub-city but this should be at the cost of health and safely of the residents.Many residents have complaint that heavy stone crusher machine is being used and that's too without a cover.


We request you to give instruction to concerned officer to visit the construction site and assess the ground reality.Appropriate direction to construction company may also be given to the construction company so that people will have relief in the area.

Dear All concerned,

With Summer Hot Wind and Dust storm in the air making it difficult to breath and survive.
Attached Report of AIR from MoeF from IGI station and NSIT Dwarka- Self Explanatory. With dust storm and addinal construction like these make life hell. Also see the UV Level its more than 8. The ozone warning also reported.

There are clear example of Intentionally human made pollution by Commercial and even institutional like DDA and SDMC created.
An example the construction at Plot NO. 1, Sector 22 Dwarka where a Society building. Then the service road of along Sec 22 (Road No. 210) digging up last July still not restored.

The onus primarily rest with DPCC and CPCB.

Regards

Rejimon C K.

These days our LG ji seems to be the fall guy.
How easily we bite the bait.
Summer time is a bad time to be in this situation.
Heart goes out to residents.
What stage of construction is this structure in?
Can a canvass be put around the building site as they do for most commercial buildings under construction.
Have noticed Delhi Metro being very professional in their sites.
Amazingly organized.
Regards.

Dwarka people lack confidence in moving out of their homes and doing something on ground. Everybody wants Sushil ji or Rejimon ji or some other ji to do all the work.

Here are so many people here on this forum. Decide one day and lets reach the construction site. I am willing to take charge and let me see how they won't behave themselves. Let the SHO also come to the spot on our call. Let media move in and cover the activity. You are talking about just pollution, I have many more issues pertaining to the same building in question.

But doston, ghar se bahar nikalna padega... Kuch karna padega.... Iss garmi me A/C gharon se bahar nikal sakte ho to baat karo warna A/C  ka temperature set karo aur blanket leke sote raho....

Shobit ji,
DF needs volunteers like you, people ready to take charge. You decide a date, like Saturday afternoon or Sunday when working class will be free and circulate the same on this blog, .  You may also inform SHO, DDA, MCD, MLA, Media, etc., and  raise the question of pollution and other issues pertaining the building in question.  Let us see how many Dwarkites respond and  confirm their participation to reach the spot.

This can be tackled only by taking direct action as for authorities, it is a routine matter and ignoring the problem by keeping mum. 

Shobhit needs full support from the residents.

Also it would be highly appreciable if someone could click a few pictures of the place tomorrow. I would have loved to do it but since I have my final exams, I am a little occupied. In any case, we will together make it happen on 6th June 2015. I appreciate the call by Dwarka Forum and support by all other members.

Will miss you all be it 6 or 7 June. 
But happy that point raised by me regarding source of water for construction is taken care of. DDA is well aware of all these activities and they keep their eyes closed. 
I have the reason to say that as DDA do not hesitate to misinform and provide misleading information on PMO's portal  reference PMOPG/W/2015/0106035

Its a great effort of DF and dynamic public which has yielded good and fruitful result.

Had they (DF) not brought such irregularities under public domain and discussed it would have been continued. 

There is no checks and balances on the part of the authority concerned and things move and get done only when public becomes socially active. Now the thing is  what is use of public authorities who are vested with power of checking such irregularities? As responsible public, our job is done but what about the authorities who are the real culprit and  responsible for such irregularities. This shows there is total lack and collapse of responsibility and accountability of the system and authorities are in slumber.

I won't be joining in on 7th June. When it was decided that we all will collect and meet them on 6th June then why a sudden meeting was organised yesterday? just to make mockery of us people here. Even the MLA was informed about the program for 6th June and he had agreed to be present personally and extend his support towards the cause.

Subject: [Dwarka Forum-] Air and Dust Pollution in Sector 14 Dwarka due to construction of Mall.
To: dwarka-residents <Dwarka-r...@googlegroups.com>


DUST AND AIR POLLUTION AT SECTOR 14 DUE TO CONSTRUCTION OF MALL

 

                                                     M K Gupta, Jt. Secy. DF

 

4.6.2015 - Yesterday's evening, we have a meeting with the promoters of Vegas Mall to solve the problem of air and dust in the nearby areas.  From the promoters side of mall, Vikas Agarwal and Sunil Anand were present while Sushil Kumar and myself have represented the residents and Sushil ji explained the problems.  Promoters told that the plant at site is a mixer plant and not the stone crushing plant.  They have agreed to erect a cover for stopping the dust spreading in the nearby areas and sprinkling water from water tankers 5-6 times during the day as per requirement.  


On our suggestions, promoters offered to meet on Sunday, 7th June, at 10.00 a.m. at site for discussing and action to tackle the problems.

Who all were present in the meeting if we can be a little more specific?  Who in particular called Dwarka Forum to organise the meeting?  Where was the meeting held?  Who among other members who agreed to be a part of the movement were informed about the meeting? Obviously when Sushil ji and Gupta ji were present in the meeting,  we all don't need to go in but we could have been informed. 

I have my exams going on.  Can't take phone calls.

Shobhit,

Let us respect the decision and wait for the outcome.
Everything will be shared at appropriate time.But we must give an opportunity to the promoter to rectify the error bcz the development work is done for us only.What I can assure you that safety of people will not be compromised.

I will personally asses the progress along with other members of Forum and then we will get back.

Pressure must retain on the builders or any one that matter.
May be good to share communication in future to avoid any mis-understanding.
Also please please keep POLITICAL ASPIRANTS from such Public interest matters. Calling Public representative is not an issue I think.
Hope these builders will comply & neighbouring RWA must ensure a regular EYE on these & alert.
World Environment Day- We must ensure Pollution Free environment. Considering alarming AIQ for Dwarka NSIT and IGI airport shown.
With Monsoon going to hit before that we need to ask Horticulture department to plant more TREES, Not SHRUBS etc.. The worst is that our Civil wing of DDA is such lousy people, most of the footpath area 100% covered with tiles left hardly any space for Tree Plantation. Need to find some thing about this.
