No Regards For Apex Court? Despite SC Order, MCD Continues Jahangirpuri Demolition| Bulldozer

"The Indian governance now has a new dimension. The governance is based on quick justice, read that as injustice in most cases and it is carried out through not courts but through bulldozers. After Uttar Pradesh then Madhya Pradesh's Khargaon, the bulldozer raj reached the national capital Delhi. In Madhya Pradesh we saw that Khargaon where communal clashes broke out during Ram Navami procession, the administration carried out a demolition drive. They bulldozed the houses of some of the people there. While the administration was saying that this was illegal encroachment they were removing, those in te govt said that the bulldozer were being run on the houses of rioters. Many of those houses that were bulldozed belonged to Muslims. The move received widespread criticism that the administration carried out the drive without the courts pronouncing anybody guilty. Or even if it was to remove illegal encroachment, the administration did not give prior intimation to the occupants. Similar scenes unfolded in Delhi today. where the North MCD carried out demolition drive in Jahangirpuri. Three days ago on Saturday, communal clashes broke out in Jahangirpuri during a hanman Jayanti procession. Both the sides blamed each other for the violence. The situation is already tense in Jahangirpuri. Amid the police action that was being carried out in the area, the North MCD yesterday issued a notice saying that it will carry out the demolition drive in Jahangirpuri on what it calls ""illegal encroachments"". It also sought the deployment of 400 police personnel at the spot. And so it did today. The North Delhi Municipal Corporation launched an anti-encroachment drive in Delhi’s Jahangirpuri on Wednesday. Bulldozers rolled into the area and began demolishing houses and shops. Since the morning, there was an unease on the ground in Jahangirpuri. People who had put up small shops, or carts on the road, started clearing it in anticipation of the Bulldozer action. At around 10.30 the bulldozers started razing the establishments to the ground. starting with razing the tin shade, then going on to bulldozing the walls and then the entire structure.
