Acceding to the plea of colonisers, Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal today asked the Housing and Urban Development department to issue a fresh notification on October 27 for plot holders and colonisers who could not get opportunity to get their plots and colonies regularised in given time-frame already elapsed.
He also directed all deputy commissioners and development authorities to launch a sustained campaign to get all illegal colonies and plots regularised and complete this work as a mission.
