AMBALA: In a significant enforcement initiative, the District Town Planner (DTP) team in Ambala conducted demolition activities targeting six illegal colonies across approximately 21.5 acres in Ambala Cantonment’s urban area. This operation is part of an ongoing crackdown on unauthorized land developments.
As per official reports, demolitions were executed in village Chandpura, covering around 10.1 acres over two illegally developed colonies. In village Sareri, also under Ambala Cantonment, three illegal colonies covering about 10.2 acres were dismantled. Additionally, one illegal colony in village Ranwala, spanning nearly 1 acre, was also demolished.
During the operation, the enforcement team completely removed the temporary roads laid within these illegal patches. Furthermore, 27 structures under construction at these locations were demolished to thwart any future unauthorized development.
This demolition drive was overseen by Duty Magistrate and District Town Planner Rohit Chauhan, Junior Engineer Ravindra Panwar, and the SHO (Enforcement), supported by a strong police presence to maintain order.
Speaking at the event, DTP Rohit Chauhan urged the public to avoid falling victim to misleading claims from property dealers and advised against purchasing plots or shops in illegal colonies. He warned citizens to steer clear of such unauthorized developments and not to undertake any construction in those areas.
The administration emphasized that actions against illegal colonies and unauthorized constructions will persist. Residents are encouraged to check the legal status of land and colonies before investing in property to prevent financial loss and legal troubles.
