Greater Noida West: Residents of VictoryOne Central, a high-density residential society in the region, have raised serious concerns over the persistent lack of basic infrastructure and an escalating sanitation crisis. The situation has worsened in recent weeks as large piles of garbage have accumulated across the premises, triggering foul smell, mosquito breeding and potential disease outbreaks. Residents allege that despite repeated complaints to authorities, no permanent corrective action has been taken, leaving families to live in unsafe and unhygienic conditions.

Garbage crisis raises public health alarm
The most immediate concern is the widespread accumulation of untreated waste within society’s premises. The openly lying garbage is not only smelly but also hazardous to health. Public health experts warn that such conditions can significantly increase the risk of vector-borne diseases such as Dengue, Malaria and Chikungunya, especially with the onset of warmer months.
Children and elderly individuals are particularly vulnerable. The situation is becoming unlivable. We fear for our health every day.

Possession without a completion certificate raises regulatory questions
A major concern flagged by residents is that flats were handed over as early as 2018 without securing a permanent Occupancy Certificate (OC) or completing essential infrastructure. Under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, developers are required to obtain completion and occupancy certificates before offering possession. Experts note that deviation from these norms can leave buyers exposed to legal and civic risks, including lack of basic services and delays in the registry.
Incomplete infrastructure and frequent service disruptions
Residents have listed multiple unresolved issues that continue to impact daily life:
- Only one operational lift in the society, which frequently breaks down
- The Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) is not fully functional.
- Inadequate parking infrastructure
- Absence of a secure boundary wall and a proper entry-exit system
- Temporary tin and metal barricading instead of permanent structures
- Frequent power outages disrupt routine life.
- Uncertainty over the construction of the remaining towers
Urban development analysts highlight that such incomplete infrastructure not only reduces the quality of life but also raises serious safety concerns.
Registry delays and financial concerns add to distress
Another major issue is the delay in the flat registry due to pending land dues. Residents claim that despite paying significant amounts, the legal ownership transfer remains stuck.
Additionally, allegations have surfaced regarding:
- High transfer fees running into lakhs for resale transactions
- Full maintenance charges are being collected despite incomplete facilities
- Lack of transparency in financial management
These concerns point towards broader governance and compliance gaps often reported in fast-growing urban clusters like Greater Noida West.
Authorities yet to deliver lasting solution
Residents state that complaints have been submitted to multiple authorities, including:
- Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA)
- Uttar Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority
- District administration and fire department
However, they allege that responses have been limited to temporary measures without addressing root causes.
Residents demand immediate intervention
The residents have collectively put forward key demands:
- Immediate sanitation drive and scientific waste management system
- Completion of all basic infrastructure on priority
- Resolution of land dues and clearance of pending registries
- Transparency in maintenance charges and financial dealings
They emphasise that their approach remains peaceful and within legal frameworks, but warn that continued inaction could escalate the situation.
Urban expansion without accountability?
The situation at VictoryOne Central reflects a broader pattern seen across several housing societies in Greater Noida West, where rapid urbanisation has often outpaced regulatory enforcement and infrastructure delivery. Unless authorities intervene decisively, residents fear that the gap between promised and delivered housing standards will continue to widen, directly impacting livability and public health.
