Any encroachment of Defence lands is liable for removal and also for payment of damage charges as per the law. Hence loss caused, if any, is recoverable. The action for eviction of the encroached lands is taken under the provisions of the Public Premises (Eviction of Unauthorised Occupants) Act, 1971 and Cantonments Act, 2006.

Encroachment of Defence Lands

Comment:
The AHQ need to vigorously pursue encroachment cases diligently. Area Commanders are responsible for securing and upkeep of Defence Lands. Sadly they close their eyes when they get paltry personal favours from the encroachers, conmen, hoodlums and Political Criminals. Sukhna Land scam is only the tip of the iceberg. The Defence Minister instead of preaching in the Lok Sabha need to fight the Land Grabbers and MOD bureaucrats on the ground and not on paper!
