The allottees of Sector 76-80 here held a massive demonstration against long delay in allotment of their plots in front of the Greater Mohali Area Development Authority (GMADA) office in Sector 62 here today.

Hundreds of members of the Sector 76-80 Plot Allotment Sangharsh Committee,which was spearheading the cause of those allotted plots in 2001 but were not yet given their physical possession,staged a massive protest dharna and rally.

The allottees,led by the panel president Sucha Singh Kalor,squatted in front of the GMADA office and raised slogans against GMADA officials for what they alleged as delay in allotment of 351 remaining plots.

Despite repeated and clear cut instructions of Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal,who is also GMADA Chairman,to immediately clear all the pending cases of allotment in Sector 76-80 without any further delay and favourable decision of the legal litigation from the Apex Court,the GMADA officials concerned were making lame excuses to further delay the remaining allotments,alleged the panel media spokesperson Paramdeep Singh.

The protesters demanded action against the GMADA officials concerned for harassing the allottees for the past 9 years and urged the CM to intervene in the matter.

They also demanded high-level probe into the heavy expenditure shown on development of the area.

They threatened to gherao the GMADA officials and lay siege to the GMADA office on May 22,if their demands were not met soon.
