The Delhi High Court has directed the South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) to submit a report on unauthorised properties being built in the vicinity of Qutub Minar, while ordering its commissioner to hold to account officers who permitted these constructions.
Justice Sanjeev Sachdeva also directed the civic body to ensure that none of the illegally constructed properties are permitted to be occupied, if not already occupied, and asked for the deputy commissioner (south zone) to be present before the court on August 20, the next date of hearing.
“Let a status report along with complete details of properties which have come up in the vicinity of the Qutub Minar unauthorisedly be filed, along with action taken, supported by the photographs."
The directions were passed on a petition by one Rinku Kaushik, who alleged vast illegal and unauthorised colonies being developed on a plot adjoining Qutub Minar, a world heritage site, and that several multi-storey buildings are being built at Mehrauli.
