Struggle For Land Title

  • Uttar Railway Doorsanchar Avas Samiti ( URDAS) was established in 1988-89 by shri K G Tewari in cooperation with staff and officers belonging to TELCOM branch of Northern Railway.

  • URDAS purchased 12.5 Acres of land from Surendra Mohan Hans in year 1989-90.

  • Mutatiom of land was done in the name of URDAS and Kisan Bahi was issued by Tehsildar/Gazibad in year 1991.

  • Two other societies of Railway Employees by name i) Adarsh and ii) COFMOW were also formed around same time. These societies also purchased land from same land owner Sri Surendra Mohan Hans.

  • URDAS started making efforts to prepare a plan and get approval from concerned authorities to take up the development of the land as plotted colony.

  • In March 1988, Tehsildar (LC)/Gaziabad had filed a report that sri S M Hans owns more than 12.5 acres of land in violation ZALR act.

  • Based on this report a notice was issued to Sri S M Hans, who submitted his objections praying that the notice is in violation of law and should be withdrawn.

  • During pendency of the case Shir S M Hans had died. His sons Neearj Hans and Sameer Hans as successor did not respond to the subsequent notices issue by the court.

  • The case was never contested by the societies and was decided ex-parte on 24-10-1998. According to the judgement, out of total land holding of 52-14-1 Bighas of Shri S M Hans, land measuring 32-14-1 Bigha was acquired by the state being in excess of 20 Bighas under section 154/2 of ZLRA Act.

  • The case was decided in favour of societies on 17-05-2005.

  • State Govt. filed a revision petition against this order in the court of Addl. Commissioner/ Meerut. The petition was dismissed on 7-2-2007, granting land title to the SOCIETY.

PHASE-2

JOURNEY TOWARDS A DREAM HOME FOR EACH AND EVERY MEMBER

  • UP AVAS EVAM VIKAS PARISHD (UPAVP), through notification dated 28-11-1998 published in national news papers, notified land acquisition for their SIDHARTH VIHAR PARIYOJNA. This included the land of all societies in the area including URDAS.

  • URDAS represented to UPAVP not to acquire our land , but to include our society in the scheme and hand over developed plots after charging development charges.

  • UP GOVT had issued detailed guidelines for amalgamation of land owned by registered housing societies. Accordingly all the societies within the scheme areas were invited to submit their details. After the scrutiny, the local office recommended amalgamation of our society in the scheme.

  • In the meantime UPAVP announced auction of large size plots to Builders . One Plot which included URDAS land was allotted to M/S Prateek Realtors India Pvt Ltd. URDAS filed a writ petition in Allahabad High court.

  • High court directed the Chairman UPAVP to consider URDAS claim and give suitable response to our petition.

  • Chairman UPAVP confirmed that URDAS land is to be amalgamated in Sidharth Vihar scheme. But there is dispute as the land available is less than that claimed by three societies. Hence amalgamation can not carried out until the title ownership of land and its measurement are notified by the Revenue department of Gaziabad .

  • As per UP GOVT G.O. No4128/9-A-3-2000-2LA/92(AB) Dated 22 October 2002 maximum upto 50% of the land of the society would be allotted to the society, on payment of amalgamation, development and other charges. This land if devided into the plots , after leaving further 33% of the allotted for roads and parks etc. will result in 28 sq mtr for 100 yard members, 40 sq mtr for 150 yard members and 56 sq mtr for 200 yard members. It was estimated that more than 35 crores will have to be paid to UPAVP towards amalgamation, development and other charges.

  • It was, therefore, proposed to take help from an influential builder , first- to get the land allotted by revenue department and UPAVP , second - to plan and build multistoried flats for the members without any more cost to the members. This proposal was approved by members in the AGM held on 14-12-2014.

  • A consortium agreement was entered into with Mr Ankush Tyagi of TAND T INFRAZONE PVT LTD for this purpose.

  • Consortium agreement provided one flat to each member of the sizes as under:
  • 1) 100 sq yds Members - 900-950 Sq Ft (Two Bed Room)
  • 2) 150 sq yds Members -1350-1400 Sq Ft (Three Bed Room)
  • 3) 200 Sq yds Members -1800-1900 Sq Ft ( Four Bed Room)

  • Due to constant efforts made by URDAS and Builder jointly, title of 4.3147 HA of land was confirmed by ADM / Gaziabad . UPAVP allotted 2.049 HA ( 20490 Sq Mtrs) of land to the society in accordance with the UP GOVT guidelines.
