The project—- Building Plans Approval, Tracking and Management System— developed by the Chandigarh College of Engineering and Technology and the Punjab Engineering College will also have the provision of SMS (short messaging service). One just has to send an SMS from a mobile phone to know the status of a particular case of a builder or the allottee or that of the architect. According to the plan, allottees will be given a password and a code number for their convenience. More often than not, the UT Estate Office is thronged by residents trying to get their building plans cleared. With an online system in place, it will be possible to track every movement of the file and the time taken in processing an application. It will also be possible to know the name of the officer who is handling a particular case.

Many times we receive complaints about officials harassing those who want to know their acse status. in the procedure,” said a senior UT Administration official.
