Illegal Construction Near Qutub Minar: HC Seeks SDMC's Report, Summons Dy Commissioner

News 18  

The Delhi High Court has directed South Delhi Municipal Corporation to submit a report on the properties being constructed in the vicinity of Qutub Minar and directed its commissioner to fix responsibility on officers who have permitted illegal and unauthorized constructions. Let a status report along with complete details of properties which have come up in the vicinity of the Qutub Minar unauthorizedly be filed along with action taken supported by the photographs. The order was passed on a petition by Rinku Kaushik alleging vast illegal and unauthorized colony being developed on land adjoining Qutub Minar, a world heritage site, and several multi-storey buildings being constructed at Mehrauli. The judicial observations made last year on SDMC's response to the illegal construction being insufficient seem to have been fortified, the court said.
