3.       In    the   event    of   any   allottee is   not    cooperating   with    the maintenance  agency   while   carrying   out   their   works,  CPWD  or  any other   maintenance    agency   shall   write   to  the  Directorate of Estates and   the   concerned    Allotment   Section   in  the   Directorate     of  Estates shall  take  appropriate  action  against   the  allottee   as deemed   fit within three  days under   intimation    to the  maintenance   agency.

4.       All   Ministries/Departments of  the  Government of India    are requested  to circulate  these  instructions among  its employees  and request them   to  maintain harmonious relationship with   neighbours and   cooperate  with   maintenance  agency   of  Government residential colonies.
