CHANDIGARH, Aug 3: The illegal houses in Sector 55 demolished by the UT administration sometime back with a vengeance.
According to sources, the construction had started days after they were razed on July 13. The construction is in full swing and some of the residents have already started living there.
These houses are situated just opposite the Chandigarh Housing Flats in Sector 55. Complaints by residents of these flats have been pouring in against these constuctions as they fear this will lead to power trippings once they settle here. quot;They will resort to kundi connections as they did last time and give us other problems,quot; one of them said.
Sources said this is an agricultural land. quot;These dwellers take the houses on a rent of about Rs 100-200 per month and then build the houses on their own funds and risk,quot; they added.
Demanding that these houses be demolished again, residents said the only way to stop the constructions is by resuming the land, maybe after warning the owners.
