Durg. The land of Bhilai Steel Plant is being continuously encroached upon by the land mafia. An encroacher had encroached half an acre of land at Newai Bhata and made an illegal cot and was doing milk business there. When the Municipal Services Department of BSP came to know about this, it took action there and freed the land from encroachment by breaking the illegal encroachment.
Bhilai Steel Plant’s Municipal Services Department official KK Yadav said that a person had occupied half an acre BSP land of Newai Bhata for many years. He had prepared a cot there by fencing with bamboo and wire and was doing the business of milk by rearing cows and buffaloes. BSP gave notice to him several times to vacate the land, but he was not vacating the illegal occupation. He had constructed a cot and a temporary shed on that land.
He was doing milk business by building a room surrounded by chain link fencing with a cement pole. In this episode, on Monday, the BSP team along with the Newai police force reached there and took action to break the encroachment. The BSP team broke a shed of about 50X50 area made of bamboo sticks there. Demolished the construction of a pucca room built on 12X12 feet. Broke the fencing and got the land encroached free. BSP officials have warned the illegal occupant that legal action will be taken against him if he again occupies BSP’s land in future.
