Ludhiana development body evicts illegal occupiers of three LIG flats in sector-40

                Ludhiana: Glada officials Saturday evicted 
illegal occupiers of three low-income group 
flats on Chandigarh Road in Sector-40. The 
action was taken following a case pending in 
court.
The officials said Glada had built 319 low-
income group flats in Sector 40, of which 82 
were occupied illegally. Out of the 82, fifty-eight 
flats were freed from illegal occupiers last Jan 
and 
21 in August with the help of a duty magistrate 
and police. The illegal occupants of three other 
flats — 834, 847 and 848 — were left to be 
evicted.
They had kept their belongings in these flats, 
and locked them from outside. Glada officials 
broke the locks with a cutter, opened the doors 
and threw out the belongings. A video of the 
entire exercise was also shot. The flats that 
were freed from illegal occupation have been 
sealed by the authorities. A notice has also 
been pasted on them, warning that if any 
attempt is 
made to break the seal and reoccupy these 
flats, legal action will be taken against the 
offenders.
