HC directs DDA to fence Yamuna floodplains after clearing encroachments

Hindustan Times  

The Delhi high court on Thursday directed the Delhi Development Authority to properly fence the area around the Yamuna floodplains, after removing all encroachments and illegal constructions. “Vice chairman, DDA, is directed to ensure that as and when encroachment is removed, the area around the Yamuna floodplains is properly fenced so that there is no encroachment,” a bench of acting chief justice Manmohan and justice Tushar Rao Gedela said in the order. The high court’s order comes days after the same bench, on July 8, directed DDA vice chairman to remove all encroachments and illegal construction on the Yamuna riverbank, riverbed and drains flowing into the river. “This court directs the vice chairman of DDA to decide the representation dated June 16, 2024, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within six weeks,” the court said.
