MCG enlists 28 illegal colonies

 GURGAON: The Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon (MCG) has submitted a list of 28 unauthorized colonies in the city which are fit to be taken under the ambit of the corporation. The authorization will ensure that these colonies receive basic amenities like drinking water, sewage management plans and well-laid roads.

Last year, the MCG had prepared a list of 62 unauthorized colonies, all of which have already been evaluated by the corporation. A new list of 20 more colonies will be forwarded to the state government for consideration in the next two weeks, added officials.

The new list includes areas like Saraswati Vihar, Ravi Nagar, Basai Enclave and Hans Enclave. Though the MCG has been looking after sectors like sanitation and solid waste management in these areas, a complete involvement would be possible only after the approval, said MCG commissioner R K Khullar.
