Punjab mulls policy rejig to regularise plots in colonies

To facilitate the speedy disposal of cases pertaining to regularisation of plots in unauthorised colonies, the AAP government is in the process of announcing major amendments to the regularisation policy.

The proposed amendments aim at regularising plots in unauthorised colonies where construction has taken place till December 31, 2022. There is, however, a rider that the execution of the sale agreement should have taken place before March 19, 2018. The proposed amendments also entail recovery of regularisation charges from individual plot holders in colonies where 25 per cent of the plots have been sold, besides initiation of legal proceedings against defaulting colonisers and recovery of dues from them.

If the amendments are approved by the government, such cases may be reopened. Sources said there were many cases in which the sale agreements of such colonies were executed before March 19, 2018, but their physical existence could not be verified from Google images.

Subject to approval by the government, such colonies and individual plot holders could be considered for regularisation after a physical verification that the property existed before December 31, 2022.
