The development authority is govern by The up urban planning and development Act 1973 ,all buildings in the concerned development area are built after seeking permission of the authority so your contention that the buildings were constructed on the behest on authority cannot be denied ,what you can do now is go for RTI regarding the concerned building and ask complete information about that ,with that there are number of rulings both of Apex court and High court regarding this .If any further query do not hesitate to contact me ,you are always welcome .

well ... first thing just calculate your estimate damage . File a formal police complaint against those builders or authoritiers responsible for damage.Send them legal notice and then subsequent reminder asking for re reimbursement and then file a a claim petition in consumer forum .if claim is more than 20 lakh go directly for state consumer forum in lucknow or if less than 20 lakh then district forum hope probably vda is varanasi
