Ludhiana, October 28, 2024: GLADA Chief Administrator Sh. Harpreet Singh, IAS had adopted zero tolerance to unauthorised 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.

When developers did not stop the illegal
construction work despite serving them with the notices, a special team carried out the demolition drive, which went unopposed. In a move to check mushrooming of illegal colonies at the very initial stage GLADA is planning more
such drives in upcoming weeks.
