Residents Protest Illegal Commercial Building in Sukhna Enclave
People living in Sukhna Enclave are upset because someone is building a big commercial building where only houses should be.
They say this person is breaking the rules and the government isn't doing enough to stop them.
The residents have complained many times, but the building keeps getting bigger.
They are worried that if this is allowed, more people might start building illegal things in their neighborhood.
The government says they will check and stop the construction if it's happening again.
Residents allege illegal construction of a commercial building in a residential area of Sukhna Enclave.
The construction is said to be carried out by a family member of a former police officer.
The Sukhna Enclave Residents Welfare Association (Kansal) has filed multiple complaints since October 2025.
