Three Kanal prime JDA land retrieved at village Majheen
JAMMU: Jammu Development Authority on Monday conducted an anti-encroachment drive here in village Majheen on the Jammu city outskirts.
Acting tough on land grabbers, who have encroached JDA land and water bodies (Khads), the JDA, after serving several warnings and notices, finally launched the drive wherein two concrete structures and two plinths and boundaries were demolished and prime JDA land falling under Kh. nos. 119 min, 168 min and 171 min was retrieved.
Through the anti-encroachment drive, a strong message has been sent to land mafia who has either encroached or sold JDA land illegally and in fraudulent manner.
The JDA authorities have adopted zero tolerance policy against land mafia and illegal encroachers and no encroacher will be spared. The JDA officers present on spot also hinted that more major drives to retrieve the encroached JDA land will be carried out in near future.
An appeal was also made to general public not to buy lands merely on affidavits without following due procedure of law as a lot of encroachers from outside the district have built pacca structures on the JDA lands after buying them from mafia who has sold the lands in illegal fraudulent manner.
The drive was conducted by JDA under the supervision of Vice-Chairman and Director Land Management in co-ordination with Police Department and District Administration.
The JDA authorities also applauded the support and co-ordination of Police authorities especially SDPO Nagrota, SHO Nagrota and I/c Police Post Sidhra and District Administration to make the retrieval of JDA land a success.
