Chandigarh administration razes city's largest slum cluster
The Chandigarh administration has removed nearly 2,500 structures at Janta Colony in Sector 25 and reclaimed about 10 acres of government land worth ₹350 crore. Earth-moving machines of the Estate Office were pressed into service during the demolition drive, which was carried out to make the city slum-free. Janta Colony was the largest illegal slum cluster in the city.
