JAMMU, Aug 2: In a decisive action against unauthorized encroachments, the Jammu Development Authority (JDA), under the guidance of the Vice Chairman, conducted anti-encroachment drive today at Khasra No. 119, Village Majeen, Tehsil Jammu Khas.
The enforcement wing of JDA, in close coordination with the District Administration, demolished several illegal plinths and unauthorized structures erected on JDA land.

These commercial establishments had been raised without any sanctioned plan or legal authorization and were found in gross violation of the master plan and land use norms. The sealing of these shops was carried out to prevent further misuse of public land and to send a strong message to habitual encroachers.
Speaking on the matter, the Vice Chairman, JDA, reiterated the Authority’s commitment to safeguard Government land from encroachments and restore its lawful use for public welfare.
