Jammu, May 4 (JKNS): The Jammu Development Authority on Monday launched a major demolition drive along the Ring Road corridor, pulling down more than 15 незаконal structures constructed without mandatory permissions, in a significant move to curb violations and safeguard planned urban development in the region.
As per news agency JKNS, JDA carried out a major demolition drive along the Ring Road corridor to curb unauthorized constructions and ensure planned urban development.
During the drive, more than 15 illegal structures, which had been raised without obtaining the requisite building permissions from the competent authority, were demolished. These structures were found to be in clear violation of approved land use norms and building regulations.
Preliminary assessments indicated that the unauthorized constructions posed a serious threat to public safety. Many of these structures were either structurally unsound or had encroached upon critical areas, thereby increasing the risk of damage to life and property, particularly to nearby residential and commercial establishments.
The demolition operation was conducted by the Enforcement Wing of JDA with the assistance of local administration and law enforcement agencies, ensuring that the drive was carried out smoothly and without any untoward incident. Prior notices, as per due legal procedure, had been served to the violators, providing them adequate opportunity to comply with the regulations.
The Authority reiterates its commitment to maintaining planned development in Jammu and urges the general public to strictly adhere to building norms and obtain necessary permissions before undertaking any construction activity.
Unauthorized constructions not only violate the law but also endanger public safety and disrupt orderly urban growth.
JDA further emphasizes that similar enforcement actions will continue in the future against all such violations, without exception. (JKNS)
