Collectorate rate increase: The Collectorate rate of land in the villages of Chandigarh is much lower than the land adjacent to neighboring states. Due to this, the villagers get very low rates of compensation for the land. The delegation said that when all the villages of Chandigarh have been included in the Municipal Corporation, then in such a way, the Collectorate rate of their land should be increased and the guidelines should be provided to the Deputy Commissioner of Chandigarh immediately.
Lal Dora: The delegation recommended the elimination of Lal Dora within the villages of Chandigarh, saying that most of the land of the people of the villages has been acquired by the administration. The villagers have limited land left and even on that ground, the sword of red thread hangs on them. Also change of land use and regularization policy should be implemented.

Street and Roadside Vendors: Keeping in view all the problems faced by the vendors, the delegation said that the Vendors Act was provisioned to protect their livelihoods so that poor people are provided with employment opportunities. Through this act, there is a lot of fury within the vendors. Not only this, where those people are given a place, there is a lack of basic facilities. The administrator also recognized that vendors really need to study more for permanent employment. For this, the delegation recommended that the Vendors Committee set up by the Mayor for officers and counselors be allowed to study outside the big parks, where these people were raised, if there is any statutory, to get permanent employment of these people. If there is no objection, then the same should be done and the survey should be carried out so that they are relieved from the troubles they are facing at present and they should be surveyed again. It is noteworthy that not a single member of the Town Vending Committee constituted by the corporation is a public representative. Due to which the facilities of the vendors were overlooked. The delegation demanded that at least 6 councilors of the corporation should also be included in this committee and its Mayor should be made the chairman.

Administrator Badnore gave his consent and said that they should send the draft to him soon and they will soon issue information about the formation of this committee.
Problems of industrialists: Similarly, the policy of leasehold to freehold should be implemented in the industrial sector as well and the benefit of the industrial policy issued by the central government is currently being given to the owners of one canal or more, all these benefits. In order to enable industrialists to achieve this, a concrete policy should also be brought.
Urban Residential Plot Policy: The delegation said that people are hesitating to convert their property under the leasehold to freehold policy for the urban residential property as the conversion fees fixed by the administration are high. This fee should be reduced so that people can come forward and convert their property under this policy and the administration will start receiving more revenue from it. The delegation also talked about reducing the collector rate of the city.
Regularizing the contracted personnel: The delegation, citing the judicial verdict of the Uma Devi case in the Honorable Supreme Court, urged the Administrator that any department, corporation, any category of Chandigarh, be it a guest teacher or others, who are constantly They have been serving above 10 years, they should be regularized. As per the provision, once contracted people can be regularized. But till now the Chandigarh administration has never used this provision, so those people who have been serving Chandigarh for so many years, regularize those people and provide relief to them.
Rehabilitation Colony Ownership: The matter has been stuck for a long time regarding the ownership of 28 rehabilitation colonies falling under the rehabilitation scheme in Chandigarh city. The delegation informed that once in the year 1990, an application was made to get ownership of these people for one month only, which never happened after that. At that time most people were deprived of it. In order to enable the remaining people to get the ownership of their houses, a concrete policy should be implemented so that those purchasing on the Power of Otroni can get the ownership of their houses.
On the other hand, while speaking about the three colonies in Sector 37 and Sector 38, the delegation said that long ago there was no provision of government house allotment to class IV employees of the Municipal Corporation, so to settle these people The government had built a chip house and provided houses to these people. These houses were built for rehabilitation. Because there are many other options for rehabilitation houses and most of them are lying vacant and are becoming blocky. Even some addicts have made a hangout there. In this way, unlike the misuse and neglect, if the people living in these cheap houses are given their ownership due to the job, then from this they will get a revenue and the people living in those houses will be able to live easily.
Gau Raksha Board: Gau Raksha Board has been set up at various places in order to prevent the decline and increase of the Gau dynasty by the central government, and to provide all kinds of facilities for cows there. The provision of spending cow cess for cow mother only for this work is being made by the central government. In such a situation, a Gau Raksha Board should be set up in Chandigarh so that cow mata can be saved from being abandoned, and to keep Chandigarh clean and tidy.
OBC and Scheduled Caste Certificates: BJP State President Sood said that this week he had a meeting with the Deputy Commissioner of Chandigarh regarding the problems of people of this category and discussed in detail for this. He urged the Administrator that the Deputy Commissioner had asked for a study for this work and that guidelines should be provided for further intensification of the work so that the people could get the certificate without any inconvenience at the earliest. Portal for Crop Purchase by the Government: State President Arun Sood informed Administrator VP Badnore that last week a delegation of farmers and farmers of Chandigarh came to meet him and he told the problem that according to the guidelines issued by the Central Government, crops now For procurement of land, the minimum support price will be transferred directly to the farmer’s accounts by making the land documents available on the government portal. Because there is no online portal for the farmers of Chandigarh by the Chandigarh administration, in their intervention, the Central Government has at present provided facilities to the farmers on the portal of the Food Supply Department so that the farmers do not face any problem in getting the price of the crop, But at the same time suggested that for this kind of facility, its own portal of administration should also be prepared immediately so that the farmer can go there and get his registration done.
Resettlement colony survey: The delegation said that in 2006, the Chandigarh administration conducted a biometric survey to provide houses to the people residing in the resettlement colony and during that time, due to border dispute, the people of the colonies adjacent to Mohali and Panchkula could not be surveyed. | The people there were deprived of taking houses. In such a situation, he demanded from the Administrator that a special biometric survey of the remaining colonies should be conducted and those people should be given the benefit of rehabilitation schemes like other people.
Nursing homes in homes: Regarding the provision of recognition of nursing homes built in Chandigarh homes, the delegation recommended that the Health Advisory Committee of Chandigarh Advisory Committee also recommend nursing home drivers with specific guidelines on this issue. It has been recommended to provide relief. The delegation said that because the emergency can provide the primary facility to the patient at the earliest, for this, the rules of these nursing homes should be decided and allowed to run and the options for better improvement should be explored.
Private school arbitrariness: Many parents approached the state president Sood for delegation of arbitrary special annual fees by private schools and made them aware that private schools are talking about arbitrarily depositing fees to parents.
