Chandigarh administration calls for fresh demand survey for Sector 53 housing scheme

Reviving hopes, the UT administration has decided to conduct a fresh demand survey for the Sector 53 housing scheme.

Chief Secretary Rajeev Verma, who is also the Chairman of the Chandigarh Housing Board, on Friday questioned the previous demand survey of the housing scheme and asked the officials to conduct a fresh demand survey.

The decision was taken after the officials of the Chandigarh Housing Board gave a presentation on the Sector 53 scheme.

When the chief secretary quizzed about the demand survey, he was told that it was done in 2018. Verma then directed officials to start a fresh demand since it has been many years since the previous one. He suggested that the survey should be conducted and finalised before the final presentation to UT Administrator Gulab Chand Kataria.
