“In Pusp Vihar Colony, 100 per cent and 50 per cent demarcation of Sector E and F has been completed respectively while same process for Sector G and H is likely to be done in next four days further to help to allot plots to the eligible people based on the seniority list and other factors,” the ADM said, adding that in ongoing work of demarcation of Ayodhyapuri Colony, some parts of 7.5 hectares of land has been found in possession of Shakuntalam housing society, Simplex, and KS oil firm.

“To provide plots to eligible claimants in Ayodhyapuri Colony, we will also have to change its land use to residential. We are working on the same,” he said. Meanwhile, the administration has received complaints against Jain for fraudulently taking possession on some valuable lands of the Indore Development Authority.
