Some of the ‘wrong
doings of past 29 years’ are as under:
1. Flouting the Scheme norms, the Rohini land was illegally diverted for ‘non-scheme related projects’
and additional and illegal Housing Schemes have already been executed from Rohini land.
2. Flouting the Scheme norms, between 1983-87, the Rohini land was allotted to Co-operative Societies and
this has already been confessed by VC-DDA through an affidavit in Delhi High Court.
3. Despite of having sufficient land in its possession, the size of plot was reduced in 1999.
4. Not only the Ministry has been updated with wrong information, DDA has even mislead the Hon’ble Lok
Sabha & Rajya Sabha on this issue several times in past.
5. By keeping the Plot allotment on hold, Scheme norms were changed for making more flats and such changes
were proposed by those who were not authorized/ permitted to do so. More surprisingly, in most of such cases of changes, there
is no ‘record’ with DDA.
After collecting
the “startling proofs of DDA’s wrong doing (through RTI Act)” of past, which has resulted in non-ending
wait of allotment of plot to Scheme registrants, with ‘active support of a group of waiting Scheme registrants also
the registrants on ‘dda-rohini.tripod.com’, Mr Rahul Gupta moved a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) [W.P.(C):
8765/2009] in Hon’ble Delhi High Court in May-2009. As everything was against DDA, within 7 months and on 16.12.2009
Hon’ble Delhi High Court has already passed the instructions to DDA to clear the backlog of the Scheme by allotting
‘fully developed plot’ within 3 years.
DDA was constituted
to provide speedy and planned development of Delhi at reasonable cost. One of the main aims of DDA is to provide ‘affordable
housing to needy i.e. the weaker section of the society’. Surprisingly, since 1994 DDA has not allotted any plot to
waiting Economic Weaker Section (EWS) category registrants of the Rohini Scheme, who have deposited Rs. 750/- with DDA in
hope to get allotted a 26 sq. mtr plot and about 4500 registrants are still waiting for a plot for which they deposited about
30% of the total plot value (as deposit money) in 1981.
The fight is
still not over. Evaluating the past ‘bad record of DDA, supposedly one of the most corrupt organisation’, fight
is still not over. In recent past DDA was EXPOSED for its irregularities in Residential Flat Scheme – 2008
and again now in Commonwealth Games – 2010 preparations.
We will
see that every waiting registrant of Rohini Residential Scheme – 1981 gets his due allotment of plot as early as
possible. The goal is to get the erring DDA to honour the commitment made
30 years ago.
We are whole
heartedly thankful to those who have already joined us and provided their ‘valuable and enthusiastic support’.
We
further appeal all like minded people/ organistation, specially the waiting Rohini Scheme registrants to
come forward and join the hands.
