GURGAON: Residents of an apartment complex on Sector 55-56 road staged a protest against the builder on Tuesday night for not providing adequate water despite charging high maintenance. Police have booked the authorities for misappropriation of maintenance funds.

Residents claim they did not get water for three days and it spoilt their Holi celebrations. They decided to protest when the builder did not respond. Police arrived at the spot soon and managed to convince the residents to call off the protest. The residents subsequently filed a complaint against the builder. The colony is near HVPL substation on the Sector 55-56 road, which runs parallel to Golf Course Road.

“This is one of the most upscale areas of the city but there is no water for the last three days. We pay between Rs 350 and Rs 1,750 as maintenance charges but there is no assurance of uninterrupted water supply,” said Ramesh Gupta, president of the RWA.

“According to the complaint, we have lodged an FIR against the manager, the vice-president and the management of the building under sections 406, 420 and 120b of the IPC,” said ASI Suresh Kumar.
