Ludhiana
(Gurvinder Sidhu)
Following the directions of Housing and Urban Development Minister Hardeep Singh Mundian and GLADA Chief Administrator Sandeep Kumar, its regulatory wing on Wednesday demolished a unauthorized colony in Sahnewal.
The developers did not stop the illegal construction work despite serving them with the notices, a special team carried out the sealing drive, which went unopposed.
The GLADA would also take legal action against the developers.
A spokesperson stated that zero tolerance is being adopted against unauthorized and unplanned development with a special focus on illegal colonies. He said a special drive has also been launched to take punitive action against those who were fleecing innocent residents under the garb of offering cheaper plots in these unauthorized colonies, which lacked statutory sanction and compliance with the government norms.
Chief Administrator Sandeep Kumar appealed to general public not to purchase property/plots/buildings in unauthorized colonies as GLADA will not provide any facility like water supply, sewerage, electricity connections etc. The list of approved & regularized colonies along with their sanctioned maps is available on the Official Website of GLADA, which may be checked by the prospective buyers before buying any property, he added.
