Punjab Assembly Discusses Implementation Delay of Need-Based Housing Policy in Mohali
During the Punjab Legislative Assembly's monsoon session, Mohali MLA Kulwant Singh raised concerns about the delayed implementation of the Need-Based Policy for Low and Middle Income Group flats in Mohali. Housing Minister Hardeep Singh Mundian assured that the policy would be implemented soon but did not provide a timeline. The issue involves unauthorized additional construction in about 10,000 flats, preventing owners from obtaining no-objection certificates to sell or mortgage their properties. A committee has been formed to review the matter, though the MLA questioned the delay given existing policy frameworks.
