New colonies acquired by IMC – civic amenities provided?

Q: What is the status of the civic amenities in the colonies in Indore at the moment? I’ll be moving there shortly, and I wanted to be aware of all the issues from beforehand.

Yes, they will be taking some strict measures. I heard that the IMC is going to revoke the building permission of the colonies that fail to provide the residents with the basic civic amenities. And this includes all the colonies which have received the permission from both the panchayat and the administration before becoming a part of the Indore municipal corporation. So basically there is going to be a spot inspection, if any colony is found to be lacking in any department of amenities, then they will be allotted a particular time frame within which they will need to get it all in shape. Failure to do so, will make them lose their building permission.

Yes I know for a fact that the corporation is taking care of this issue. They are going to be carrying out a survey to check out what the status of these colonies is. Each colony will need to have a well functioning drainage system, good connectivity via well built roads, overhead water tanks for storage purposes, and a decent water supply pipeline for regular water supply. The mayor is saying that if any colony is found to be lacking in any of these amenities then severe action will be taken against them.

Hey man listen, there is a lot going on in Indore at this moment. What has happened is that 29 villages have been acquired under the IMC limits, the problem is that these colonies aren’t providing their residents with some basic civic amenities. Simple things like sewerage lines and drainage systems are all messed up, which is obviously causing the residents a lot of troubles. I think the corporation is taking some action against this, I’m not sure. Does anybody here know?
