The Supreme Court on Monday refused to interfere or stay the anti-encroachment drives by the municipal authorities in Shaheen Bagh and Sangham Vihar areas of Delhi on the basis of a petition filed by the Communist Party of India (Marxist).
A Bench of Justices L. Nageswara Rao and B.R. Gavai, however, told the municipal authorities to follow the law and issue prior notice before “removing structures”.
