Last year, around 9,400 acres of government panchayat lands were freed from illegal possession and this drive should be accelerated this year, he said.   

Dhaliwal directed the state’s District Development and Panchayat Officers (DDPOs) that apart from court-related cases, all other encroachments should be removed.

According to an official statement, 469 acres of government panchayat lands have been freed from encroaches so far this year.
