On January 30th, the People’s Committee of O Dien Commune announced that local authorities had carried out the forced demolition of a Pickleball court constructed on agricultural land.
Previously, during a routine inspection, the commune authorities discovered that Mr. Nguyen Ba Son’s family (Cluster 8, O Dien Commune) had leveled the land and erected an unauthorized structure on approximately 675 m² of agricultural land. The structure, featuring a steel frame and a 6-meter-high corrugated iron roof, was being used as a Pickleball court, causing public outrage.
Local authorities had conducted awareness campaigns and urged the family to voluntarily dismantle the illegal structure. However, due to non-compliance, the commune People’s Committee decisively implemented the forced demolition on January 29th.
