The Delhi High Court has taken suo moto cognizance of non-allotment of flats constructed under Centre's Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission Scheme, which was to be implemented by the Delhi Government, for rehabilitation of slum dwellers in the city. Justice Pratibha M Singh noted that a large number of houses were either constructed or partially constructed but the same were yet to be allotted for rehabilitation of slum dwellers. Perusing the same, the Court noted that a large number of houses were either constructed or partially constructed but were yet to be allotted for rehabilitation of slum dwellers. Considering the large number of houses which were to be constructed under the Scheme for which substantial funds had already been expended, the Court was of the opinion that the process of completion of the houses ought to proceed expeditiously, so that the slum dwellers in the city can be duly rehabilitated and can be offered these houses as per the policy framed.
