EO must submit daily encroachment reports to:

Under the PERA Act 2024, effective monitoring of enforcement actions is critical to ensure that State property is protected and that encroachments are dealt with lawfully. One of the key procedural requirements under Sections 34 and 38 is that the Enforcement Officer (EO) must submit daily reports on encroachment activities. These reports are submitted to the Sub Divisional Enforcement Officer (SDEO), who oversees enforcement at the sub-divisional level.

The daily reports include details such as:

1. 
   

   Identification of encroachments – Both moveable and immovable encroachments observed on State property.

   
   


2. 
   

   Actions taken – Issuance of removal notices, confiscation of goods, sealing of premises, or initiation of auctions.

   
   


3. 
   

   Costs incurred – Expenses related to enforcement, storage, and removal of encroached items.

   
   


4. 
   

   Status updates – Compliance by occupiers, pending actions, and any representation or appeals filed.

   
   

Submitting daily reports to the SDEO ensures transparency and accountability in enforcement operations. It allows the SDEO to monitor the effectiveness of the EO, track compliance with legal procedures, and provide guidance or take corrective action if necessary. Additionally, these reports create a legal record for review by the Hearing Officer (HO) or other authorities during audits, appeals, or disputes.

In conclusion, under Sections 34 and 38 of the PERA Act 2024, the EO is mandated to submit daily encroachment reports to the SDEO, maintaining a structured enforcement system that is transparent, accountable, and compliant with the law.
