Ludhiana The Greater Ludhiana Area Development Authority (GLADA) on Wednesday wrote to the chief engineer of the Punjab State Power Corporation Limited (PSPCL) to stop issuing power connections against the colonies for which an NOC has not been obtained.
Officials from GLADA said the government had floated a policy for regularising illegal colonies in 2018, but several builders did not send any proper applications.
They alleged that these builders went ahead with the construction of their respective colonies and were issued power connections by the concerned department without proper checking.
