Ludhiana, June 28

A team of regulatory wing of the Greater Ludhiana Area Development Authority (GLADA) carried out a demolition drive in four illegal colonies constructed around Phillaur near here on Sunday.

GLADA officials and the police razed structures at one illegal colony each being developed at Ramgarh, Burj Pukhta, Garha and Bachowal villages. Structures raised in these colonies were pulled down, and roads, streets and pavements dug up, with sewerage and water supply pipes dismantled and electric poles uprooted.

At some places, mild resistance was put up by developers and their staff. Developers of these illegal colonies were sternly directed not to carry out any further development work.

GLADA officials have advised residents not to be lured by false promises of unscrupulous developers and make proper enquiry about credentials of the developer and status of the colony before investing their money in purchasing plots or properties in new colonies.
