NOIDA, Uttar Pradesh: A land measuring 6,000 sq m and valued at approximately Rs 24 crore was reclaimed by the Noida Authority Thursday, as it continued with its anti-encroachment drive in the city, officials said.
The land falls in Chhijarsi area, under Work Circle 4 of the authority, and the construction that had come up there were razed down on orders of Noida CEO Ritu Maheshwari, they said.
