Luxury River Bank Colony Bungalow Allotment to Be Cancelled by Lucknow Municipal Corporation
Trouble continues to mount for senior politician Azam Khan and his family as the Lucknow Municipal Corporation cracks down on controversial property allotments. In a major administrative development, the luxurious government-allotted bungalow in Lucknow's prestigious River Bank Colony registered in the name of Azam Khan's sister, Nikhat, is slated for cancellation. Municipal authorities and real estate regulators have initiated strict legal proceedings following inquiries into procedural irregularities and unauthorized transfers, marking yet another severe blow to the jailed leader's legal and political standing.
Inquiry Uncovers Serious Irregularities in River Bank Colony Allotment
The municipal probe revealed that the sprawling residential property located in Lucknow’s high-security and elite River Bank Colony was acquired and retained in violation of standard civic guidelines and statutory property norms. Investigations into municipal records showed discrepancies regarding original tenancy rights, lease conditions, and subsequent unauthorized occupancy. Officials noted that public properties meant for specific administrative categories or eligible beneficiaries were allegedly manipulated, prompting the Lucknow Municipal Corporation to invoke strict regulatory measures to reclaim the prime real estate.

This high-profile cancellation is part of a broader, intensified campaign by municipal authorities in Lucknow to audit and recover disputed government properties leased to political figures and their relatives. Legal analysts point out that the family has faced a cascade of legal hurdles across various courts concerning assets and institutional properties in Rampur, Sitapur, and Lucknow. As the municipal corporation moves forward with the eviction and formal cancellation notice, the development underscores the administration's zero-tolerance policy toward administrative misuse of prime urban land.
