(i) 44 JJR colonies developed by DDA under the old Plan Scheme of JJ Resettlement during the period 1960 – 85 were handed over to Slum & JJ Deptt. MCD for management purposes. At present, the main function and duties of the Zonal Offices in seven zones, is to issue Notices for recovery of Licence fee from the original licencees. Apart from that, since most of the allotments were made about three decades back, there are number of cases relating to transfer of license-ship etc. which keep pouring on regular basis and require timely processing. In all JJR colonies, divided in seven zones, there are about 200778 Residential Plots, 3128 Tenements, 85 Coal Depots, and 9374 Shops, 26 Kiosks, 7 Factory plots, 102 Pig Sheds and 7 Building Material plots. Five JJ colonies having Residential Plots measuring 80 Sq. Yds. are being dealt by L&L (JJ) Section. The efforts are also made by the JJR Section to take action against the defaulters in the payment of Licence Fee etc.

(ii) The Zonal staff under the administrative control of the Zonal Asstt. Director is authorized to issue demand notices for licence fee and the Zonal staff makes recovery from the allottee / occupants of the plots and deposit in Slum & JJ Treasury after getting it duly checked by the Head, Accountant and Asstt. Director. The Zonal accounts mades entries of the revenue received in the Demand and Collection Register against each of allotted plots.

(iii) As most of the plots in the JJR colonies, as mentioned above, were allotted by DDA and handed over to Slum & JJ Deptt. for management purposes only and as per old record, on uniform basis, Licence Fee of Rs.8/- per month is supposed to be paid by the allottees of 25 Sq. yds. Residential Plots and 12.5 Sq. yds. Commercial Plots in the JJR Colonies. In case of Commercial plots on road-side and on corner, License Fee was fixed at Rs. 16/- per month. The Licence fee was further revised by the Corporation vide Resolution No. 495 dt. 21.11.2000 wherein it was decided that the Licence fee increased @ 10% after every three years on the increased amount of Licence fee. However, it is pertinent to mention here that the Licence fee of Rs. 8/- is applicable only in the case of original allottee, but the instances have come to the notice where the plots have been sold and at present are being unauthorized occupied or where they have been trespassed, Resolution No. 372 was passed by the Corporation, but due to certain unavoidable reasons, it at present kept in abeyance. In the said Resolution, the Deptt. was empowered to charge certain amount of damages from the unauthorized occupants only and the trespassers were supposed to be evicted.
