The Himachal Pradesh government on Friday decided to bring an ordinance to regularise over 30,000 unauthorised structures in the state despite a high court rap for favouring violators.
The cabinet, presided over by Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh, decided to make the necessary amendments in the Himachal Pradesh Town and Country Planning Act of 1977 to give a one-time relief to violators on payment of a prescribed fee, a government spokesperson told IANS.
