  • Charanjit Singh Channi, the chief minister of Punjab, announced the 'Mera Ghar Mere Naam' (my house in my name) scheme to grant proprietary rights to people who have lived in 'lal dora' of villages and towns for generations.
  • Previously, residents of the 'lal dora' did not have ownership rights and could not sell their properties.
