A city-wide survey by the Municipal Corporation has identified over 250 under-construction structures as illegal, with more still under scrutiny. Violations include construction without approved plans, commercial activities in residential areas, and significant deviations from sanctioned maps.
CMC has floated tenders for the construction of new community centres and the reconstruction of existing ones in various sectors, including Sector 24, Sector 29, Sector 51, Bapudham Colony (Sector 26), Manimajra, and Sector 63. These projects, with an estimated cost of over ₹10 crore for Sector 24 and ₹8 crore for Sector 29, aim to provide enhanced amenities and facilities to residents.
Heavy monsoon rainfall has caused extensive damage to Chandigarh's road infrastructure, affecting over 400 km of roads and leading to an estimated repair cost of Rs 80 crore. The Municipal Corporation (MC) is floating tenders worth over Rs 40 crore for recarpeting V4, V5, and V6 roads as part of these repair efforts. Road cave-ins and potholes have been reported across various locations, drawing criticism from the Federation regarding the poor road conditions. An internal assessment by the MC revealed that nearly 225 kilometers of city roads are in very poor condition and require urgent repairs, with an estimated cost of Rs 33 crore. The MC has received a boost with the approval of Rs 125 crore from the Government of India to revamp city roads, prioritizing essential works and directing officers to initiate work on the most critical areas first.
