Patiala, September 24

With many residents facing difficulty in registration of sale deeds of their properties in authorised and unauthorised colonies, the tehsildar offices now want people to furnish ‘no objection certificates’ issued by offices of the Urban Planning and Development Authority and MC for properties falling in unapproved colonies. Earlier, many registrations were done without the requisite ‘no-objection-certificates’. But the same orders were revoked after a public interest litigation regarding the same was heard by the Punjab and Haryana High Court recently.

Officials clarified that no extra documents need to be submitted for registration of sale deeds of properties falling in approved colonies.

Jeevan Garg, Tehsildar, Patiala, on Thursday said, “We do not require applicants to submit additional documents, including copies of licenses or lay-out plans for registration of properties, in approved colonies. Our offices have the list of approved and regularised colonies.”

He added, “The owners, however, need to submit NOCs issued by the respective authorities for their properties falling on agricultural land and in unapproved colonies.”

He said, “The earlier permission to carry out registration without the requisite no-objection-certificates has been withdrawn by the government. Therefore, NOCs for registration of properties in unauthorised colonies are required.”

People also complained of delays in getting dates for registrations. But the tehsildar office said any delay was on the part of PDA in issuing NOCs only.

PDA Additional Chief Administrator (ADA) Gautam Jain when contacted responded, “Some delay in issuing NOCs has occurred due to restructuring of the department. Earlier, we had designated an ATP but now separate district town planners have been designated for all districts. The powers have been shifted. The process will be streamlined by Monday.”
