A demolition drive was carried out today by the Office of the District Magistrate, U.T. Chandigarh, to remove unauthorized constructions and encroachments in Village Kaimbwala.

The demolition operation was ordered by Sh. Nishant Kumar Yadav, IAS, District Magistrate, U.T. Chandigarh. The operation commenced at 9:00 A.M. and was carried out under the supervision of the SDM (Central), U.T. Chandigarh, with the active participation of revenue, enforcement, police and civil defence personnel.

As part of the enforcement drive, encroachments spread over approximately 118 kanals of land (around 15 acres) were cleared. The action particularly covered boundary walls and encroachments in open areas adjoining farmhouses, thereby restoring the encroached land and ensure that the area remains free from unauthorized construction.

The demolition drive involved close coordination among the District Administration, Chandigarh Police and Civil Defence, ensuring that the operation was conducted in an orderly and effective manner.

Adequate police personnel, including lady constables, were deployed to maintain law and order and facilitate the smooth execution of the enforcement action in the presence of a DSP-rank officer.

The SDM (Central) monitored the entire operation and maintained continuous liaison with the police and field-level officials to ensure effective coordination and uninterrupted execution of the demolition drive.

The revenue and enforcement machinery was deployed extensively for the operation. Tehsildars and Naib Tehsildars (Periphery), along with Kanungos, Patwaris and enforcement staff, were present at the site and carried out the field-level enforcement action. Three JCB machines were deployed for dismantling the unauthorized structures and removing the encroachments.

Personnel from Civil Defence, U.T. Chandigarh, also assisted the administration during the operation and extended necessary support to the field teams.

The District Magistrate’s Office has reiterated its commitment to taking firm and sustained action against violations in environmentally sensitive areas and to ensuring that the Sukhna Catchment Area remains protected from unauthorized construction and encroachment.
