The flat owners had earlier filed a reply to the Noida Authority's notice. Thereafter, the Noida Authority didn't initiate any action. Just two days ago, the Authority gave the Society flat owners 48 hours ultimatum. When the warning period was over, the Noida Authority officials arrived at the Grand Omaxe Society with a bulldozer.
The petitioners also stated in the application that the Noida Authority did not take any cognizance of the reply filed by the flat owners earlier. The people of the Society had made temporary constructions after taking permission from the builder and the Noida Authority, the petition said. Grand Omaxe Society came into the limelight when a political leader Shrikant Tyagi had a spat with a woman, who was a resident of the Society, over the issue of construction in common areas of the Society. Shrikant Tyagi had also created a ruckus with other flat owners of the Grand Omaxe.
