Q:Hi, I am recently come across some dispute about land encroachment with government in the Ganapathy locality of Coimbatore. Can anyone explain on this?
Latest Answer: While I totally agree that it is wrongful encroachment on the part of the settlers to take up land that has been reserved by the corporation, it is also quite sad that the body has onky been able to claim back 15 out of the 480 + plots. Mostly the corporation has demolished existing encroachments to reclaim the land, such as the swimmimg pool of the Mint Homes property. Alternatively, the corporation has introduced a proposal to gather all residential welfare associations and voluntary organizations to help develop reserve sites into parks. Of course after the meetings, the idea remained just that - an idea on paper.
