HIMUDA flouts construction rules yet again: RTI

HimVani

Shimla: It seems HIMUDA has taken its position as a government agency too seriously. This is the reason HIMUDA is flouting construction rules in many parts of the state. First, it was a 15 crore bust stand in Mandi without the map and then came construction of another bus stand in Dharampur in the flood zone. Now, suddelnly an RTI enquiry has unearthed another such incident in sarkaghat. HIMUDA is constructing a 38 crore boundary wall around Sarkaghat college and that too without formal demarcation.  It is being assumed that in order to benefit few people, HIMUDA  has taken this step of constructing the boundary wall without formal demarcation. The wall is almost complete and after Lawan Thakur’s enquiry into the matter, HIMUDA, college administration and the area’s administration has come under the scanner. However, no one is ready to take the blame. one party says another is responsible and another says the third party is responsible. The College principal, R.C Sharma said, they had asked the SDM office to do the demarcation before the construction began and after repeated efforts from their side, the office took no appropriate actions. On the other hand SDO, HIMUDA, Kushal Sharma said, demarcation has already been applied for and it was only after combined inspection, in which even college administration was present, the construction of the wall was started.
