A dispute regarding land acquisition for a major sports complex project in Noida has reached the Allahabad High Court. ATS Homes, the developer leading the project, has accused the Noida Authority of failing to fulfill its obligation to provide the necessary land.
The project, envisioned as a "Sports City" in Sector 152, Noida, includes plans for an international-level cricket stadium alongside other sporting facilities. It was initially announced in 2015 and aimed to be built on a total of 125 acres of land. However, ATS Homes claims the Noida Authority has not yet provided the full 25 acres of land crucial for the project's initial phase.
In April 2023, the Allahabad High Court raised concerns about the delay in land allotment. The court specifically questioned the Noida Authority's decision to invite bids for the project before securing all the required 125 acres. Additionally, the court asked how the Authority could propose action against the developer for failure to complete construction when the builder had not been allotted the entire land needed for the project.
A recent hearing on March 11 revealed that the Noida Authority has not yet complied with the court's April 2023 order. The court has directed the authority to provide a clear response by the next hearing date on April 3.
The 125-acre Sports City project has the potential to be a significant addition to Noida's infrastructure. Beyond the cricket stadium, the complex could offer a variety of sports facilities, potentially attracting residents with an interest in athletics and promoting a healthy lifestyle for thousands of residents. However, the ongoing dispute regarding land allotment threatens to delay the project's completion.
The upcoming court hearing in April is crucial for determining the project's future. If the Noida Authority complies with the court order and allocates the remaining 25 acres of land, construction can proceed as planned. This would be a positive development for Noida residents and sports enthusiasts alike.
