[CROMA] CONSTRUCTION OF DUMPING GROUND OPPOSITE ABES ENGINEERING COLLEGE

 

Dear Mulayam Singh Yadav Ji,
This is to bring to your Notice that Ghaziabad Nagar Nigam (GNN) has started construction work of Solid Waste Treatment Plant (commonly known as dumping ground) at Dundahera Village just behind the ABES Engineering College, Delhi-Hapur By Pass Road, NH24, Ghaziabad. This dumping ground is at a distance of less than 200 meters from the Engineering College. The College has more than 1000 students and has residential facility as well.

In the past several objections were raised to the concerned authorities Ghaziabad Nagar Nigam (GNN) and Ghaziabad Development Authorities (GDA) on the proposed Dumping Ground. But despite all these objections, GNN has moved forward and illegally started the construction of Dumping Ground. They have not only overlooked the law that a dumping ground must have 500 meters of boundary on all sides from a educational or a residential area but have also ignored the fact that the matter is sub judice at Supreme Court level between GNN vs a reputed builder.
As you are aware that the country does not have adequate number of institutions imparting higher education. We as parents are forced to send our wards to institutions where ever we manage to get the admissions. In the present case also, as a parent one could be left with no option but to send his child to ABES Engineering College and study for four years sitting and living besides a mountain of garbage fully exposed to all kind of pollution and diseases. Please understand that this is appalling and definitely not in line with the kind of future we plan for our children.
I would also like to bring to your attention that GNN has started construction without approval from Directorate of Environment. Thus it is clear that they do not have necessary approvals from state body and central ministry to go ahead with the construction.

I request you to kindly look into it ASAP and instruct the concerned to look in the above matter holistically rather than into some legal papers which can be made to argue in any direction.
Regards / Mohit
