The Issue

Kaushambi and the areas surrounding the Ghajipur Landfill in Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh are grappling with severe issues of illegal encroachment, accumulated garbage, and rampant land grabbing. These problems are not only degrading the environment but also posing significant health risks to the residents living in these localities.

Illegal structures and settlements have burgeoned uninhibited, effectively diminishing the public spaces and infringing on the rights of the lawful inhabitants of these areas. This encroachment hinders development projects, disrupts public order, and contributes to the expansion of slums which lack basic sanitation facilities.

The Ghajipur Landfill has become a symbol of this neglect, where piles of garbage are left unattended, creating a breeding ground for diseases. The waste, coupled with toxic fumes from the unmanaged landfill, is polluting the air and water, making it unsafe for residents to live a healthy life. This situation calls for immediate intervention to clean and secure the affected areas.

Concrete measures need to be implemented by the local authorities to remove unauthorized structures, enforce strict waste management protocols, and initiate rehabilitation projects for affected residents. Awareness campaigns about the impacts of illegal encroachment and proper waste disposal are also vital to mobilize community support and cooperation.

Action must be taken urgently to address these challenges and to ensure that the people of Kaushambi and Ghajipur can live in a safe, clean, and healthy environment. Sign this petition to urge the relevant authorities to take the necessary steps to restore freedom and quality of life to the residents suffering under these conditions. Your voice can make a difference.
