Chandigarh, 7th April, 2016:  It has been made to appear to Sh. Ajit Balaji Joshi, IAS, District Magistrate, Chandigarh that a number of persons are living in the city of Chandigarh as Paying Guest and not strictly as tenants. These persons are students pursuing various courses, are patients undergoing treatment and also are citizens pursuing various vocations.

As the arrangement does not strictly fall in the category of tenancy or even the premises not in the category of Guest House or Hotel, at present, this category of residents are not been accounted for and, therefore, there is a likelihood that, this arrangement is abused by anti-social elements who can hide themselves in the city and can cause breach of peace and disturbance of public tranquility. In addition, there are also reports that immoral activities are being indulged in by some of the Paying Guest which cause nuisance to neighbours and other concerned.
