Overview

• IARI’s May 2 notice seeks ₹1,63,57,550 for alleged unauthorised occupation between May 2022 and February 2025 at the institute’s Pusa campus.
• The amount was computed under the government’s telescopic formula for Type VI-A housing, starting near ₹92,000 for the first month and rising to a capped ₹4.6 lakh.
• Records show repeated reminders since 2020, a short extension allowed as a special case in early 2022, and eviction proceedings initiated in July 2022.
• Police assistance was requested in February 2025, and Nagpal vacated the bungalow on February 28 after a final eviction notice had been issued earlier.
• Nagpal says she had permissions due to her parents’ surgeries and paid the licence fee, and the Uttar Pradesh government forwarded her waiver request to the Centre on June 26 without a recommendation.
