During the discussion, the Chief Administrator could not give any time frame for the re-calculation. “Though the Chief Minister has agreed for the re-calculation during the previous meeting, the HUDA official could not give a deadline. We put forth another proposal to remove the enhancement charges included in the accounts of residents until re-calculation is done, the Chief Administrator again expressed inability to fulfil the condition”, said Sheoran.
