Illegal High-Rise PG Buildings in Noida Villages Pose Serious Fire and Safety Risks
Densely packed multi-storey paying guest accommodations have been constructed illegally across villages in Noida, far exceeding permitted floor limits. These buildings routinely violate building codes, featuring weak structural columns and narrow surrounding lanes that block emergency vehicle access.

The boom in unsafe construction is largely fuelled by high demand for affordable housing from students and IT professionals in the area. Tenants tend to prioritise low rents over verified safety standards when choosing where to stay.
