NEW DELHI: The Delhi high court has issued a contempt notice against the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi on a petition highlighting disobedience of an earlier HC order. Justice G S Sistani asked the L-G, along with DDA vice-chairman and a DDA commissioner, to explain why they shouldn't be hauled up for contempt of court and fixed the matter for January.
The notice came after petitioners 'Jangpura Residents Welfare Society' through advocate R K Saini pointed out the failure of these authorities to remove an illegal structure styled as a mosque and a 'Balmiki Mandir' in the locality. The RWA drew HC's attention to the fact that even after DDA's inhouse 'religious committee' granted the green signal for removal of the structures, no action has been taken on the ground.
In 2006, the RWA had approached HC protesting the failure of municipal authorities to remove encroachments and illegal structures stunting the planned development of the colony as per the layout plan that included a green patch. The petitioners argued that this inability had robbed them of an opportunity to have a community centre and a park in their locality.
