Illegal colonies get time till Nov 5 The Punjab Government on Friday extended the deadline for regularisation of illegal colonies, including residential plots and commercial buildings, up to November 5. After that, applicants will have to pay a penalty (till November 15). A decision to this effect was taken at a Cabinet sub-committee headed by Deputy CM Sukhbir Singh Badal. It was decided to extend the deadline in view of the festive season. It was also decided that after November 5, the applicants could get their plots and houses regularised on paying a 20 per cent compounding fee. A 50 per cent compounding fee would be charged from unauthorised colonies and commercial sites till November 15. The Deputy Chief Minister categorically said that there would be no further extension after November 15. He asked the officers concerned to accept forms by hand and online.
