Nip illegal house building at 'first stage'

The Tribune
CHANDIGARH, Nov 5 - The local MP, Mr Satya Pal Jain, has urged the Chandigarh Administration to take a decision regarding the grant of power and water connections to all those who have constructed houses outside the "lal dora" of various villages of the union territory. Mr Jain said here today that he had made this demand during his meeting with the Adviser to the Administrator, Mr Jagdish Sagar, here yesterday.
