          He said that as the services like roads, water supply, sewerage and open spaces   in these colonies have been  operational satisfactorily for more than five years, the concerned colonizers have been directed to transfer these colonies to Municipal Corporation, Gurgaon on ‘as is where is basis’. A total of 2872.40 acres plotted area would be transferred to the MC, Gurgaon. This included 604.20 acre in sector 53, 27, 43, 28 and  17 of Sushant Lok Phase-I , 633.27 acre in sector 3,2 and 1 of Palam Vihar and 1634.93 acre in sector 24, 25, 25A,  26A and 28 in DLF Phase I to III.

He said that as per the  agreement executed by the Department with the colonizer at the time of grant of license , the owner is  responsible for the maintenance and up-keep of roads, open spaces, public parks and public health services for a period of five years from the date  of issue of completion certificate unless earlier relieved of this responsibility, when the owner would transfer all such roads, open spaces, public parks and public health services free of cost to the Government of the local authority.
          He said that since the grant of completion certificate in these colonies is still pending due to non completion of community sites and commercial sites, the transfer would be allowed subject to the condition that such transfer of these colonies, could not be construed to be as grant of completion certificate relieving them from other responsibilities to be performed by them in compliance of terms and conditions of the license.
