The body is computing the cost of demolitions, which will be recovered from the allottees. In case of its non-payment, the allotments are liable to be cancelled.

Speaking about the same, CHB chief executive officer Yashpal Garg said, “To ensure effective actions against fresh illegal/unauthorised constructions and encroachment on government/public land, the CHB is adopting a zero-tolerance policy.”

“All the allottees who have been issued Challans/demolition notices against the fresh constructions are requested to remove these violations immediately to avoid demolition by the Chandigarh Housing Board,” he added.
