After 11 years thereafter, nothing has been done on the site yet. Commercial units / plots were sold by the promoter to a large number of buyers and nothing really happened on the site. The buyers felt cheated by the promoter. The promoter intends to forcibly transfer them to another project.

When this matter came to the notice of the authority, the authority has taken action against the promoter. When the records were examined, it was found that the builders were in complete disregard of the law and did not get the ongoing project registered even after the stipulated time and even after two and a half years.
