Panchkula, Oct 14 (UNI) The Panchkula Metropolitan Development Authority (PMDA) on Wednesday demolished two under-construction farmhouses and a warehouse in a crackdown on unauthorised construction in the regulated area of Barwala.
The enforcement team demolished two farmhouses in Rehaur village and a warehouse in Barwala village during a drive conducted under the supervision of Deputy Commissioner Satpal Sharma and led by District Town Planner Vikram Kumar.
