Chandigarh, December 9

The Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB) will hold a computerised draw for the allotment of 487 flats tomorrow.

Yashpal Garg, Chief Executive Officer, Chandigarh Housing Board, said it would be the fourth and last draw for the allotments of flats to eligible applicants at Maloya-I. “There are 14 applicants who have submitted disability certificates and they will be considered for the allotment of flats on the ground floor,” he said.

The UT Administration had decided to re-locate the residents of pre-fab shelters in Sector 52 and 56 to EWS flats in Maloya-I under the Affordable Rental Housing Complexes (ARHCs) scheme.

The CEO said so far, 1,216 flats had been allotted through three computerised draws held on November 10 and 25 and December 2.

Physical possession of about 1,000 flats had already been handed over and the remaining flats would be handed over this week itself, said Garg. He said around 800 pre-fab shelters had already been demolished.

The draw would be held in a fair and transparent manner and it would be supervised by senior officers from other organisations.

For following the Covid protocol, special arrangements have been made for a live telecast of the draw on YouTube and it will also be streamed live at the site of pre-fab shelters through a display van.
