Delhi High Court slams DDA for over 30-Year Delay in Allotment of Plots
The Delhi high court was hearing petitions against DDA filed by applicants who alleged that 25,000 people applied for middle-income , low-income and janta (poor) category plots in the Rohini Residential Scheme, 1981, but are still awaiting allotment due to delay by the authority. The bench, which was not satisfied with the submissions of the DDA, said the agency must come out with a “positive plan” to end the wait of applicants, within three weeks. “It is pathetic to hear that some of the applicants have even died,” it said, adding that the vice chairman of DDA will have to assume responsibility.
“The DDA is only making verbal assurances but has not proceeded in making any layout plan. We are not at all satisfied with the submission made by DDA,” a bench of Chief Justice Dipak Misra and Justice Sanjeev Khanna said, asking the vice-chairman to file an affidavit explaining the delay . “You file an affidavit about your layout plan and specify the reasons as to why they have not got their plots during last three decades,” the court said and asked the DDA to file its response within three weeks.
Delhi high court came down heavily on DDA for delay in handing over plots to applicants, who had applied under a 30-year old residential scheme. The DDA had told the court that the lieutenant governor had approved the layout plans for 16,000 plots and the approval for remaining plots would be granted by the end of March, 2010. The applicants, in their petitions , have sought a direction to DDA to furnish relevant records and allot plots immediately to applicants.
