Gurgaon: The work is still suspended on several sites in the city on Monday even though the construction ban lifts, with confusion that apply between institutions in the status of the prohibition and activities that are permitted at this time.
Officials from the Indian National Highways Authority (NHAI) – who worked on two largest infrastructure projects in the city, Dwarka Expressway and Sohna raised the road – said they had not continued construction work.
“Unlike Delhi, where clear direction has been given about construction activities, no one has been issued for Gurgaon.
Therefore, we only carry out non-pollution activities at our project site until we accept further clarity,” said a senior Nhai official.
The Department of Public Works (PWD), who worked on improving Atul Kataria Chowk and Mahavir Chowk, also refrained from continuing construction work on Monday.
Speaking to Toi, a senior PWD official said: “We have not continued construction because we are not sure whether it was permitted.
Orders were enforced until Sunday, but no orders issued provide clarity, not like in Delhi.” “After we have a clear direction , we can continue construction immediately because there is no worker problem that returns home, because the prohibition is only for a few days.
But if it is increasingly extended, our workers can return home.
In this case, continue the work every time the ban lifted will also eat longer, “added the official.
Meanwhile, the Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA), which carried out several major projects in the city, began working to continue construction on Monday.
This authority rebuilds the intersection of the city center of Huda, where the path in the direction and two-way flyover, as well as a two-legged leg, is expected to appear at the end of this year.
However, at the location of the GMDA project also worked on the ground not continued on Monday, with officials said it would take “a few days” for them to mobilize resources.
“The work hasn’t started on the ground yet because it will take us one or two days to mobilize resources, including workers and equipment.
We expect construction to actually start on sites in the next few days,” said a senior GMDA official.
The prohibition of construction was first applied by the Deputy Commissioner last week, in order where he directed that the complete ban was imposed on all types of construction and development activities in Gurgaon until November 17 “with the aim of reducing air pollution and to achieve the recommended air quality level” .
On November 17, the air quality management commission was directed further that all construction activities were stopped until November 21.
The construction ban was appointed, but had not worked to continue on the infra gurgaon project site
