The officials conducted a comprehensive exercise to finalise the land. “It was a comprehensive exercise for the scheduled Noida International Greenfield Airport at Jewar, the Film City and the industrial sectors and newly developed residential areas along the Yamuna Expressway. We have finalised the land for the police offices and residences for future requirements of this area,” said the police commissioner.

On October 30, 2020 the Yeida has sent a proposal to the Uttar Pradesh government for six new police stations and other facilities in view of the upcoming multiple projects in the area.

The new police stations are to be built in sectors 18, 20, 22D, 25A, 29 and Dayanatpur, said Yeida and police officers, where police residences will be built as well.

The Uttar Pradesh government has directed the Yeida and the police to build facilities and upgrade the policing apparatus before the airport at Jewar is developed by 2023-24, said officials. Swiss firm Zurich International AG, the concessionaire, is likely to start work at the site by mid-2021.

Following demands from Jewar MLA Dhirendra Singh, one police station has been approved in Sector 25A, where residential plots have been allotted to farmers whose land was acquired for projects.

“We need to focus on development in a manner so that services can be delivered to all sections, be it farmers, investors or allottees, who want to build houses along the Yamuna Expressway,” said Dhirendra Singh MLA, Jewar, who accompanied the officials during the inspection.
