Where there is illegal construction, the most efficient way out will be to pursue four tracks at the same time — collecting proof through RTI, filing a municipal complaint, securing an interim injunction in accordance with Order 39 CPC, and criminal action in line with the BNSS 2023. Acting on all four fronts simultaneously rather than progressively would be extremely effective.
Three months ago, your neighbour started his constructions, which appeared to be a mere renovation. However, now he built a four-story structure without any setbacks, erected a wall that hampers the light and ventilation in your home, and has a municipal engineer always ready to “look into the issue.” Does it sound familiar? Every year, millions of Indian citizens find themselves in such a situation, yet most are not able to act in their best interests due to lack of knowledge about the appropriate measures.
It might surprise you, but your rights are clearly stated by law, and all you need is proper legal support. Here, we offer you a comprehensive manual in fighting illegal construction, relying on up-to-date Indian legislation, i.e. BNSS 2023, RTI Act 2005, Order 39 CPC 1908, Indian Easements Act 1882.

Why East Gurgaon is a Hot Investment Destination in 2026.
Corporate growth: Hundreds of MNCs are located in corporate business parks of DLF Cyber City, Udyog Vihar, and GCER – creating long-term housing demand. Metro expansion: The ₹5,452 crore Yellow Line loop will increase the number of stations by 28, and it will result in 15–20 percent increases in the values of the corridors. Luxury demand: The UHNI population in India is increasing at a higher rate than supply – Golf Course Road lacks supply and this has continued to push prices upwards.
Infrastructure improvements: SPR flyovers, Vatika Chowk underpass, and the Gwal Pahari 6-lane road are all reducing commute times. Favourable INR exchange rates and the growth narrative in India are drawing historic NRI capital into East Gurgaon.
The figures support it: 116.9% GCER appreciation, 20.84% Sector 56 YoY growth, and 18% Sushant Lok appreciation since 2023 are not speculative figures, but are driven by genuine demand.
