We urge residents, business owners, and church leaders to abide by the City’s by-laws and to refrain from allowing the attachment or erection of illegal structures on their properties. Compliance with municipal regulations is critical in ensuring a clean, safe, and orderly environment as the City continues with efforts to reclaim and rejuvenate the inner city.

Recently Road laid at Thudiyalur junction. Road laid and also expanded by removing the encroachments. Looks nice. Many areas I think Roads are being laid in the city. It's nice when you drive on the new road. Hope to see such roads across the city. 🤞

Hyderabad: Hydra Targets Illegal Constructions in Gandipet Operation HYDRA has been launched in the suburbs of Hyderabad, focusing on illegal constructions in the Rangareddy district. The operation zeroed in on the Full Tank Level (FTL) of Gandipet pond, where several buildings had been erected within the buffer zone, violating environmental regulations. The buildings, which included apartments, were found to be in direct violation of land-use norms. After receiving numerous complaints, HYDRA Commissioner Ranganath initiated the operation, leading to the current crackdown. Amidst solid infrastructure and the heavy presence of law enforcement, demolition crews have begun tearing down the illegal structures. The operation has not been without resistance; several locals who attempted to prevent the demolitions were detained by the authorities. Operation Hydra continues, with more demolitions expected as the authorities strive to restore the area to its original state. #Hyderabad #Hydra #Osmansagar

This is Pinkuylluna, an Inca hillside site above Ollantaytambo in Cusco, Peru. The structures include stone rooms, platforms, stairways, and ventilation features. Many of these buildings are identified as qollqas, or Inca storage facilities, used to preserve food and supplies in the cooler mountain air.

Western Railway is undertaking a major safety-driven encroachment removal operation at Garib Nagar, Bandra (East), today i.e 19th May 2026, after due legal process extending over several years. The following facts may kindly be noted: 1. The matter is not sudden or arbitrary. Proceedings under the Public Premises Act were initiated before 2017 and eviction orders were passed on 27.11.2017. 2. The issue has undergone extensive judicial scrutiny over nearly nine years, including proceedings before the Hon’ble Bombay High Court and Hon’ble Supreme Court. 3. The latest orders of the Hon’ble Bombay High Court dated 29.04.2026, subsequently upheld in further proceedings as well as before the Hon’ble Supreme Court, have permitted removal of unauthorized encroachments, while protecting identified eligible structures. 4. Western Railway is fully complying with judicial directions. Structures identified for protection through the joint survey process are not being disturbed. 5. The action is being undertaken primarily in the railway safety zone adjacent to active railway tracks, where unauthorized habitation poses serious risks to human life and train operations. 6. This railway area stretch is operationally critical for augmentation of rail capacity in Mumbai. Removal of encroachments is essential for railway safety, operational flexibility and future infrastructure expansion, including additional train services. 7. The proposed works are linked to enhancement of carrying capacity on one of the busiest rail corridors in the country and will facilitate introduction of additional long-distance train services for passengers across India. 8. Railway land cannot remain perpetually encroached, be it anywhere, and more so in safety-sensitive operational areas. At the same time, Railway administration is acting strictly within the framework of law and court directions. 9. The operation is being carried out jointly with civil administration, police authorities and railway security agencies to ensure maintenance of law and order and humane execution of the drive.

All these floods in Abuja became worse in the last 3 years. No more proper drainages, and a lot of green areas have been converted to buildings/structures… very sad to see what my City has turned into. Sad, very sad 😔

Haike!The owners of Marble Towers have approached the High Court on an urgent basis, and an interim order was granted on 15 July. The order interdicts the City from demolishing or interfering with structures on the property, and from preventing access to it, pending a hearing set down for 10h00 on 16 July. The City will be in court and will respect the legal process, as we always do. Our broader work to restore a safe, dignified and lawful inner city for the people of Johannesburg continues. The video below shows one of the many shops that was operating despite a court order stating it should not, using illegal structures. #RebuildingJoburg #InnerCityReclamation
