CM orders FIRs over Krishna Colony road sale

GURUGRAM: Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Friday, 21 August 2026, ordered the registration of FIRs against colonisers and action on unauthorised construction after residents of Krishna Colony—located in Jhund Sarai Viran (also referred to in some records as Jhunjharsa Veeran)—told a grievance meeting that a road earmarked for public use had been sold to private buyers who then tried to take possession. The colony, residents said, had been developed against norms. The directions came at the District Public Relations and Grievance Redressal Committee sitting at Civil Lines.

The Chief Minister stated that negligence would not be tolerated where people are misled into illegal colonies. The allegation before the committee was that land meant to remain a public road had entered private sale transactions, after which buyers sought possession—raising both a criminal and a planning-law question for local enforcement agencies. Officials were told to proceed with FIRs against the colonisers concerned and to act against unauthorised construction in the settlement.

Seventeen grievances; ministers and MLAs present

Seventeen grievances were heard at the Civil Lines meeting. Fourteen were resolved on the spot, while three were deferred for status reports. The Krishna Colony road-sale complaint was among the matters that drew a direct order from the Chief Minister rather than a routine file movement, underlining the seriousness attached to alleged sale of public road land and to colonies developed outside approved norms.

Present at the meeting were Industries Minister Rao Narbir Singh and MLAs Bimla Chaudhary (Pataudi), Tejpal Tanwar (Sohna) and Mukesh Sharma (Gurugram). Their presence placed the district grievance forum under both administrative and political oversight on the day the Krishna Colony residents raised the road issue.

Careful language is required on the facts as recorded: residents alleged that a public-use road was sold and that private buyers attempted possession; the Chief Minister ordered FIRs and action on unauthorised construction; and he cautioned against negligence that leaves citizens exposed to illegal colony practices. Whether individual colonisers are ultimately named in charge-sheets, and how the road alignment is restored on the ground, will depend on the investigation that follows the ordered FIRs.

Krishna Colony’s setting in Jhund Sarai Viran, on Gurugram’s developing fringe, fits a wider pattern of dispute where internal colony roads and open strips are contested between plot buyers and planning norms. By linking the FIR order to a broader warning against misleading people into illegal colonies, the Chief Minister framed the case as both a local possession fight and a message on coloniser accountability.

As of the 21 August Civil Lines meeting, the official outcome on this grievance is the direction to register FIRs against colonisers and to move against unauthorised construction, alongside the overall tally of 17 grievances heard, 14 settled immediately and three held for status reports. Further police and municipal steps will determine how the alleged public-road sale in Krishna Colony is unravelled in law and on site.
