Morbi: Morbi Municipal Corporation has intensified its crackdown against unauthorized construction in the city. As part of the ongoing drive, the civic body sealed three apartments in Tirupati Heights, located on Nani Canal Road, on Tuesday after the builders allegedly continued construction work despite receiving prior notices.

Deputy Commissioner Kuldeep Singh Vala said the owners of Tirupati Heights had earlier been served notices under Sections 260(1) and 267 of the Gujarat Provincial Municipal Corporations Act, 1949, for carrying out construction without obtaining the required permissions. Following the notice, the work was initially stopped. However, the civic body later received complaints that construction had resumed, prompting the Town Planning (TP) branch to seal the three apartments.

He added that the Municipal Corporation will continue taking strict action against unauthorized construction in Morbi. Vala also urged citizens to follow building regulations and begin construction only after securing proper approvals from the authorities. DeshGujarat
