GURUGRAM: Seven multi-storey buildings were sealed and one unfinished structure was demolished in Fazilpur Jharsa, Sector 72, on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, in an enforcement drive by the Department of Town and Country Planning. Officials said the action concerned construction undertaken without the required permissions, bringing the status of buildings in the developing colony under scrutiny.
The operation was led by district town planner for enforcement Amit Madholia. The department described the colony as unauthorised and said its team was preparing further action against the sealed properties. Reports published on October 28 distinguish the seven sealed buildings from the separate structure that was demolished.
What happened in Sector 72
According to the department's account in two local reports, the team visited the village's revenue estate and took action against buildings with multiple floors. The construction under examination included buildings with stilt parking and four floors above it. Officials said the necessary government approvals had not been obtained.
Madholia said paperwork was being completed for demolition of the four floors of the seven sealed properties. That is a proposed next stage of enforcement. The reports do not establish that those floors have already been demolished, and they give no confirmed date for that operation.
- Location: Fazilpur Jharsa, Sector 72, Gurugram.
- Operation: October 27, 2026.
- Completed action: seven buildings sealed and one unfinished structure demolished.
- Further action: officials said legal formalities were being completed.
Officials linked the drive to complaints about construction in unauthorised colonies while the department had been dealing with cases in licensed colonies. Their statements describe an expansion of enforcement attention. They do not provide a total number of buildings elsewhere in Gurugram that might face similar action.
Where residents can check approval records
The planning department's official website provides a route to its public approval records. Its licence directory separates granted licences from rejected, returned, withdrawn or lapsed cases. It also offers building plan approval records and layout or site plans. These are relevant checks for anyone considering a property transaction in the area.
The directory lists licences alongside BR III, occupation certificate, completion and land schedule records. It separately links town-wise colony information and layout plans with community site identifiers. A prospective buyer can use those categories to seek the records for the particular development being offered, rather than treating a nearby licensed development as evidence about another property.
The department also maintains a procedure and checklist page with separate entries for change of land use, building plans and occupation certificates. It distinguishes building plan procedures under self certification from other applications. The directory and checklist are background resources; neither is an event-specific order identifying the seven sealed buildings.
The next verifiable development will be the department's completion of legal formalities or a subsequent enforcement action. Until then, the confirmed outcome remains Tuesday's sealing and the demolition of the unfinished structure. No demolition timetable for the sealed buildings is established in the material reviewed.
