LUCKNOW: The Lucknow Development Authority (LDA) will launch a comprehensive survey of its commercial properties after complaints of illegal possession and subletting surfaced in the Brahmkunj complex in its Kanpur Road scheme. The move comes after Hindustan Times flagged the issue following a public complaint and on-ground investigation.

LDA vice-chairman Prathamesh Kumar ordered the survey on Friday, directing officials to identify allottees who have not paid the full cost of shops and halls, but have taken possession, and in some cases, even rented out LDA units for personal gain.
