South Delhi Municipal Corporation to run encroachment drive from May 9 to 13

India Today  

South Delhi Municipal Corporation asked the Delhi Police to deploy its police force to start the encroachment drive from May 9 to May 13. The Delhi Police might take the help of paramilitary companies in the Shaheen Bagh area. A few days ago, in a letter to the SDMC, Delhi Police said due to the pre-engagement or preoccupation of the staff and personnel of the Sarita Vihar police station in other law-and-order or investigative duties, it was not possible to provide sufficient personnel to assist the SDMC staff in carrying out the anti-encroachment drive in ward number 101-S. “It is requested that prior intimation of at least 10 days may be given to fix the date for the encroachment removal drive in the area of Sarita Vihar police station so that sufficient staff may be given to assist the SDMC staff," it said. Encroachment drives are being planned in the SDMC areas after Delhi BJP chief Adesh Gupta wrote to the Mayor on April 20, urging him to remove encroachment by "Rohingyas, Bangladeshis and anti-social elements."
