Residents of Ajnara Homes society in Greater Noida protested late on Wednesday after the entry of visitors, delivery personnel and domestic workers was reportedly stopped, disrupting home deliveries and access to essential household services for more than 4,000 families.
According to Navbharat Times – Noida, residents said the entry of delivery workers, carpenters, electricians and other service providers had been blocked repeatedly. Domestic staff, cooks and sanitation workers were also reportedly stopped from entering the society on several occasions. Residents alleged that access restrictions had been imposed three to four times within a week.
The immediate dispute intensified after online orders could not be delivered to homes inside the complex. Residents were required to collect parcels from the gate, with some reportedly going to the entrance themselves and requesting security personnel to allow delivery workers inside. The restrictions were also reported to have affected visitors entering the premises.
Residents gathered inside the society late on Wednesday night after the entry of visitors and delivery personnel was stopped, the report said. An attempt was made to obtain a response from the society management, but no response was available at the time of publication.
The dispute is also linked in the report to outstanding maintenance charges owed by several residents. It said residents alleged that maintenance-related problems were continuing because of the dues issue. The report did not establish the total amount of outstanding dues or clarify whether the entry restrictions were formally connected to individual payment defaults.
Residents further alleged that the facility for submitting complaints through the society’s online application had been blocked. As a result, they said they could no longer register flat-related complaints digitally and had to visit the maintenance office in person to report problems.
The reported restrictions have created additional difficulties for households dependent on regular domestic help, food preparation, cleaning services and repairs. Residents also said that complaints to the police had not resolved the dispute. According to the report, police intervention after residents complained led to the entry process being restarted late at night, although a lasting resolution had not been reported.
The episode places the focus on how access control, maintenance collections and essential services are managed inside large private housing societies. The report does not specify whether the society has issued a written access order, identified a formal security reason for the restrictions or announced a timetable for restoring normal entry arrangements.
The immediate next step remains a response from the society management and clarification of the access rules for residents, visitors, delivery personnel, domestic workers and repair staff. No further resolution was reported in the supplied account.
