The Union Government has filed guidelines for regularisation of unauthorised colonies in Delhi in the Delhi High Court in CWP No.4771/1993 – Common Cause (Regd.) society Vs. Union of India & others. The Hon’ble Court in its order dated 27.2.2001 has inter alia directed the Ministry to notify the list of colonies which could be regularised in terms of the guidelines. The Court has also restrained the Government from regularizing any unauthorized colony in Delhi till further orders.
