The Chandigarh Administration on Tuesday sealed singer-rapper Badshah’s nightclub, SAGO By Badshah, located in Sector 26, over multiple alleged violations of building norms and unauthorised constructions.

The action was carried out by the Enforcement Wing of the Chandigarh Administration as part of its ongoing drive against establishments flouting regulations in the city’s popular Sector 26 nightlife hub.

According to officials from the Estate Office, large-scale unauthorised constructions were detected on the ground and second floors of the premises. These included the creation of cabins and partitions, construction of toilets and kitchens, a cold storage area, covering open courtyards with MS structures and fibre sheets, installation of tin sheds and storage areas, alterations to the sanctioned building plan, and changes to the rear elevation of the building.

Officials said a show-cause notice had been issued to the establishment on April 25, 2024, directing it to explain the alleged violations and remove or regularise the unauthorised structures. However, despite repeated notices, the violations were neither rectified nor approved, prompting the administration to proceed with sealing the premises.

Authorities stated that inspections and scrutiny of the property revealed several compliance-related deficiencies, leading to the enforcement action.

The move comes amid a broader crackdown on nightlife establishments in Sector 26.

In recent weeks, the Chandigarh Administration has sealed two to three other clubs for similar violations, while notices have also been served to several more establishments. Officials indicated that further action could follow depending on the outcome of ongoing inspections.
