Tarsem Singh Bhinder, chairman, LIT, said that the trust’s campaign to remove illegal encroachments will continue unabated in the future. He stated that the trust will initiate actions to reclaim its vacant properties that have been unlawfully occupied by certain individuals. In a strong message delivered through a press conference, the chairman warned those responsible for these illegal encroachments to vacate the trust properties voluntarily.
