Punjab Govt Reviews Cooperative Housing Property Registration Policy

Punjab Govt Reviews Cooperative Housing Property Registration Policy

The Punjab Government wanted to make more money by asking people who own apartments in cooperative housing societies to register their properties and pay fees, even for old purchases.

This made many owners upset, and some even went to court to challenge the rule.

The Government is now thinking about changing the rule to only apply to new buyers.

They also gave some people a discount if they register their properties quickly.

The Government says this will help protect people's property rights and reduce arguments, but some people think it's unfair because they already paid fees when they bought their apartments.
