Land a hurdle, Noida International Golf Course project to take one more year How you can accelerate your career with IIT Delhi’s Project Management Programme Submit plan to clear illegal colonies in Noida along Hindon banks, agencies told Submersible breaks down in Greater Noida West, over 5,000 residents face water shortage
The project, which was earlier chasing the December 2022 deadline, has now been rescheduled to December 2023.
NOIDA: Going smoothly so far, the ambitious Noida International Golf Course project in Sector 151A has now hit a roadblock.
TOI has learnt that several small parcels of land in nearby Kambakshpur and Jhatta villages are yet to be acquired by the Noida Authority for the city's second golf course due to protests by their owners over the provision of a peripheral road.
The project, which was earlier chasing the December 2022 deadline, has now been rescheduled to December 2023. Being built at a cost of Rs 94 crore over 113 acres of land in Sector 151A, only 39% of the project work has been completed so far.
Already over 900 people have taken membership of the club for Rs 3-10 lakh, which has fetched Rs 26 crore for the Authority.
And keeping the members' interests in mind, the Authority is mulling to give them access to the existing golf course in Sector 38A till the time this sports facility becomes functional. A proposal to this effect is being prepared and would be presented before the CEO for approval, officials said.
According to officials, the delay in acquisition of the several small parcels of land in Kambakshpur and Jhatta villages has also delayed the construction work of the golf course's boundary wall. Against the total length of 3.3km, the construction of 1km of boundary wall has been completed so far.
"The work is hampered due to protests by locals demanding a peripheral road. Officials have been holding meetings with the protesting farmers to resolve the matter," a senior Authority official said.
Along with a golf course on a sprawling 94 acres, provisions have been made for an international-level club and a banquet hall on about seven acres of land. The clubhouse will be equipped with a conference hall, gym, billiards hall, tennis court, spa and sauna bath, guest rooms and luxury suites among other facilities.
Besides playing golf, entrepreneurs can also use this complex to organise their meetings and international-level events. Adjacent to the golf course complex, the construction of a heliport is proposed on 9.3 acres of land, whose global tender was floated last month.
