With the scrutiny of documents submitted by successful applicants of Aerocity housing project underway, Greater Mohali Area Development Authority (GMADA) has till date declared the claims of 17 such applicants as invalid and cancelled allotments due to lack of supporting documents.
GMADA had constituted two screening committees to weed out applications without supporting documents. GMADA have rejected the claims of 17 applicants who were asked to personally visit GMADA office and furnish supporting documents to legitimize their claim on the plot, but, either they did not show up or submitted incomplete documents.
Some of the applicants were found to have already been allotted GMADA or PUDA plots in other schemes and were hence found ineligible. Meanwhile, Olympic gold medalist Abhinav Bindra's name was missing from the list of successful applicants. Sources said the fact that Bindra did not appear for hearing, it is likely that his claim would be rejected without any further action.
