Pertinent to mention that the unscrupulous elements are taking undue advantage of Covid-19 lockdown by indulging in illegal constructions, but they will not be allowed to violate the laws and every violation will warrant stringent action.
The people residing within the LDA jurisdiction have once again warned not to go for any sort of illegal constructions /encroachments, as the Enforcement wing will continue with demolition of illegal constructions.
