The land encroachment issue in capital complex area is once again back in the news. On Monday Papum Pare deputy commissioner Pooja Jain took note of the rampant encroachment in Doimukh sub-division. The young officer instructed the Doimukh SDO to prepare and submit the list of encroachers at the earliest for the administration to initiate action as per the law. Many DC’s came and went but no one took initiative to stop encroachment in Doimukh and Yupia area. This action by DC Jain is timely and has the support of public.
It’s a well known fact that government land has been encroached on large scale in both Yupia and Doimukh. Surprisingly even Right of Way (ROW) along the national highway is being encroached upon. In another worrying news, the student union of Rajiv Gandhi Government Polytechnic (RGGP) claimed that college campus is facing serious threat from illegal land encroacher. RGGP is the lone technical institute operating in capital complex and is blessed with excellent campus. Authorities should take suo moto action and book the illegal encroacher. Public also should stop this kind of illegal activities. They should alteast spare the educational institutions as land will be required for future expansion. Hopefully new capital DC Sandeep Kumar Singh will take urgent step to save RGGP from illegal encroacher.
