Parking at no-parking zones is not a good thing. However, this does not mean that the authorities responsible for checking parking can harass offenders. Recently, in a rather shocking incident in Noida’s Sector 50, a Skoda Fabia was illegally towed. The worst part about this was that there were two elderly men still inside the car while it was being towed. The video of this incident has gone viral on the internet.

The video showing the elderly men still inside the car while it was being towed has been shared on X by Noida Authority on their page. In this short clip, a red-colored Skoda Fabia hatchback can be seen being towed. Inside the car, we can see two people sitting on the left side front and rear passenger seats. This video has been recorded by a person who was riding alongside this tow truck and car.
What happened?
It has been reported that the owner of the car, Vishwajit Mazumder, parked his Fabia in Sector 50 to visit a hospital. He stated that he was unaware of the no-parking sign. Afterward, he mentioned that they quickly returned within five minutes. However, the company attendants responsible did not hear anything they had to say.
Mazumdar elaborated that despite their desperate pleas and onlookers, the parking attendants still towed their vehicle. As per the owner, they insisted that the car could only be retrieved from the police station.
Clarification from Noida Authority
To provide clarity on the situation, the Noida Authority stated that this was done by a private agency. They stated that private agencies are tasked with managing surface parking in various sectors to facilitate smooth traffic flow.
The Noida Authority added that MG Infra Solution is the agency responsible for parking management in Sector 50. It has also been reported that they acted unlawfully by towing the car to the parking lot of Logix Mall in Sector 32.
Official statement
Noida Authority, in its official statement, stated, “This company has been warned in the past also about violating the conditions of the contract by misbehaving with citizens and extorting money from them.”
It added, “For the incident on March 20, an FIR has been lodged at Sector 49 police station against the crane operator and his assistant while a penalty of Rs 50,000 slapped on MG Infra Solution.”
Legal Action taken
In response to this incident, an FIR has been lodged against the private parking agency responsible for the incident. The authorities have imposed a hefty penalty of Rs 50,000 on the agency. It has also issued a show-cause notice demanding an explanation for their actions.
Netizens’ reaction
A number of netizens shared their reactions on this post. One of the commenters said, “This MG Infra Solutions is a goonda parking contractor of Noida authority. They just came, put a lock on my car while the engine was on and I was sitting and extorted 1,000 from me. How come a private contractor is given so much power in Noida? How much kickbacks officials are getting?”
