Gurgaon: Officials from the department of town and country planning (DTCP) on Friday inspected CHD Avenue 71 society following a complaint by the residents against the developer for not completing the pending development work in the society.
On July 26, the residents filed a complaint against the developer on CM window alleging several deficiencies in the project. Following which, the senior town planner held a meeting with the residents and representatives of the developer on August 27 and directed the DTCP to carry out a site inspection and submit the report within 10 days.
Senior town planner, Sanjeev Mann, said that he was awaiting the report from the concerned DTCP official on the matter.
“The necessary directions will be issued after receiving the report,” Mann added.
The residents in their complaint alleged that the conditions of the occupancy certificate have not been fully complied with by the developer.

They have not been providing electricity bills to the owners since April 2018 and charging arbitrarily from the residents without even sharing the details.”
