33-Year Delay
Scheme No. 171 was launched over three decades ago. Plot development and basic infrastructure work remain incomplete, stalling the entire project.

The affected scheme is located in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. It was a major planned development for the city's expansion.
Regulatory Lapse
Plot holders blame the local development authority for inaction. The lack of a completion certificate prevents property registration and sale.

What actually happened?
Over 6,000 individuals purchased plots decades ago in Indore's ambitious Scheme No. 171. The scheme promised a well-planned residential colony.
Thirty-three years later, the land remains largely undeveloped. No roads, drainage, or other basic amenities have been provided by the authorities.
What it means for buyers
For these plot owners, their investment is frozen. Without a completion certificate from the development authority, they cannot legally construct homes or sell the plots.
This long delay has caused immense financial and emotional distress. Many bought these plots for their retirement or as a legacy asset.
What to watch next
The plot holders' association has announced plans for a major protest march. They are demanding immediate government intervention.
All eyes are now on the local municipal and development authorities. The key question is whether a clear timeline for project completion will be announced.
