The policy of the Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA) allowing existing nursing homes and private hospitals to function in residential sectors developed by it has come under fire from certain quarters. A social activist here has issued notice to HUDA to withdraw the policy and demanded the closure of all such nursing homes and clinics. A memo issued by Chief Administrator, HUDA to all Administrators and Estate Officers in October last year provided details of the policy guidelines to be adopted regarding nursing homes in residential premises in the sectors developed by HUDA. It says the permission shall not be general to the residential land or buildings but shall be case specific. According to it, the minimum size of a residential plot or building shall be 250 sq yards and a maximum of 1000 sq yards with the condition that it should not create traffic congestion.
