About 300 buyers of the project were supposed to meet Amrapali officials today, but CMD Anil Sharma did not turn up, resulting in an angry protest.
More than 300 buyers of Amrapali Dream Valley, a residential project in Noida Extension, gathered in protest at the Noida Sector 62 Amrapali office today.
Buyers said that in their last meeting with Amrapali officials, they had agreed on another meeting today in the builder’s office, but that CMD Anil Sharma did not turn up. Buyers also said that the attitude of the officials present was such that it led them to believe the builder had no intention of completing the project. This, when most of the buyers had already paid 75 per cent to 90 per cent of the total payment and the project, due to be delivered to them in 2014, as only just 40 per cent complete.
Hitesh Nakashi, a buyer, told City Spidey that the builder’s staff present at the office, along with a bouncer, misbehaved it women and senior citizens. “We then went to the Sector 58 police station to lodge a complaint against the developer,” he said.
Nakashi added that they also went to Greater Noida Authority to find out the status of the tower-wise report the builder as supposed to submit with the Authority following the triparty meeting on May 31. However, they discovered that the builder had not even submitted that. “The builder had to submit the balance sheet of the past three years, a tower-wise report, the number of units sold and unsold, the financial status of the project and a report on its basic amenities,” he added.
SK Sharma, another buyer, said that there had been no construction work had been done on the project in the past two years.
The Amrapali Group had launched the project in 2009 with a total of 47 towers in Sector Tech Zone 4. It was to construct 12,000 flats, of which 8,000 had already been sold by the builder.
When City Spidey contacted Shiv Priya, director of the Amrapali Group, he was not available for comment.
Dilip Singh Bisht, station house officer (SHO) of the Sector 58 police station, confirmed receiving a complaint from the buyers against the builder. “We will investigate the matter and will then lodge a complaint against the builder,” he added.
