Government misleading the residents of unauthorized colonies

BJP Delhi Pradesh President Vijender Gupta has alleges that the effort of Delhi Govt. to mislead 50 lakh residents of unauthorized colonies by promising them of regularization has been exposed. These colonies can not be regularized till the Central Government makes amendments in the Forest Act, Ridge Management Board Rules, AMASR Act and Delhi High Court also permits such regularization.

Gupta said that in view of the forthcoming Assembly elections, Delhi Government has again started showing golden dreams to the residents of unauthorized colonies. Chief Minister had announced that 917 colonies shall be regularized at once.

All the legal and documentary formalities have been completed. On the one hand the Chief Minister is openly cheating the people and on the other, it is requesting the Central Urban Development Ministry that the Central Government should go to the High Court and get orders for regularization.

It may be mentioned that Delhi High Court has already given orders that if the Government announces about regularizing even one colony and starts development work then it will have to inform the High Court about the legal status of the colonies being regularized. What criteria had been fixed by the Government for regularization?

It is also essential to provide the number of colonies, its border, availability of land for providing basic amenities, inhabitation in the colonies upto the year 2007 etc. to the High Court. Shri Vijender Gupta told that the Government has not completed all the legal and documentary formalities about a single colony.
