Jaipal Singh, 46, guards an isolated two-storey house in Ghaziabad's Mandola for four years, standing amid a legal battle over land acquisition for the 213-km Delhi-Dehradun Expressway inaugurated by PM Modi in April. A High Court stay protects the property from NHAI takeover, leaving the caretaker in a solitary position between development and rights.
