NCT of Delhi Laws (Special Provisions) Second Bill 2007 Bill to inhibit the sealing

November 28th, 2007 admin

The Lok Sabha on 27th Nov. passed the ,National Capital Territory of Delhi Laws (Special Provisions) Second Bill 2007, which seeks to protect unauthorised constructions — including slum clusters and commercial establishments — from demolition and sealing.

The Bill was passed after withdrawal of a statutory resolution opposing the Ordinance that had been promulgated by the Government to deal with the situation following court orders against certain categories of constructions.

The Bill seeks to maintain the status quo in the case of certain categories of unauthorised development so that no punitive action is taken against such constructions till December 31, 2008. These include slum clusters, hawkers and urban street vendors, unauthorised colonies, village ‘abadi’ areas and extensions, existing farm houses involving construction beyond permissible building limits, schools, dispensaries, religious institutions, cultural institutions, warehouses and godowns used for agricultural inputs or produce in rural areas built on agricultural land.
