Back From Olympics, Pistol Coach Samresh Jung Told To Vacate House For Demolition
Urban Affairs Manohar Lal Khattar: National pistol shooting coach Samaresh Jung, who guided Manu Bhaker and Sarabjot Singh to bronze medals at the Paris Olympics, returned home to the disheartening news that his house and locality are scheduled for demolition in two days. Jung, an Olympian, was given the notice along with other residents of the Khyber Pass locality in the Civil Lines area of the national capital.
The notice was issued by the Land and Development Office (LNDO) of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, which claimed that the land on which the Khyber Pass colony is located belongs to the Ministry of Defence and is therefore illegal.
Speaking with IANS, the Arjuna Awardee said he doesn't know why this demolition drive is taking place."It is in their plan and I don't even know about it. They have declared the entire colony illegal..."
