ANANTNAG, APRIL 20: On the directions of Deputy Commissioner Anantnag, an extensive demolition/anti-encroachment drive was held at Sub Division Kokernag today.
During the drive, which was led by SDM Kokernag and Tehsildars of Kokernag and Larnoo, 8 concrete structures were demolished which were constructed without obtaining proper permission from the competent authorities and were in violation of Kokernag Master plan. A few of these were repeat offenders and were violating court orders as well.
A stern message has been delivered to all concerned that before undertaking any commercial/residential construction, requisite permission should be obtained from competent authority, failing which strict action under law shall be undertaken.
The drive was conducted with the help of officials of Revenue, Police, MC Kokernag, KDA, R&B and NHIDCL. The officials said that similar drives will be conducted in future also.
