MOHALI: Greater Mohali Area Development Authority (Gmada) demolished 40 unauthorised under-construction structures in Nayagaon on Tuesday. The demolition drive was organised in two illegal colonies at Karoran village, Majri tehsil, near Nayagaon. Around 30 to 40 structures were razed during the operation.
The enforcement action was undertaken by the office of the district town planner (regulatory), Gmada, on the directions of additional chief administrator. Assistant town planner (ATP) Gagandeep Singh and junior engineer (JE) Kushal Sharma supervised the proceedings.
ATP Gagandeep Singh said, “We have many such structures on our target which will soon be demolished. We have zero tolerance for illegal construction and occupation of govt land.”
Junior engineer (JE) Kushal Sharma said that the initiative was aimed at suppressing unauthorised construction and enforcing regulatory adherence in the vicinity.
Residents have been cautioned against investing their savings in unauthorised colonies, as such properties face stringent legal consequences, including demolition.
