Noida’s Emerald Court society, where the now-demolished twin towers were located, has issued notices to bachelor tenants to vacate the premises, citing violation of rules.

The residential body of the society in Sector 93A said they had been getting complaints from other residents because of which notices had been issued to those living as paying guests (PGs).

“This is not a new rule. It’s an old rule of the society mentioned in the notice. Some people in the society violated that rule to operate PGs and we were getting complaints related to the administration of the society by other residents,” Uday Bhan Singh Teotia, president of Emerald Court residents’ association, told PTI.

“This notice is to check the violation of society rules. We have not asked anyone to vacate overnight but given due time of two to three months. The notice was issued in November,” Teotia said.

He said some cases had come to the fore in which the rent agreement of an apartment was made in the name of one person but that flat was sublet to five, six, or even seven girls.

“All this cannot be allowed,” said Teotia, who had spearheaded the residents’ fight against developer Supertech Ltd that led to the Supreme Court ordering the demolition of the twin towers built illegally on the society’s premises.
