DDA Reschedules Majnu Ka Tilla Demolition Drive

DDA Reschedules Majnu Ka Tilla Demolition Drive

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) wants to tear down some buildings at Majnu Ka Tilla, near the Yamuna River.

This area is home to many Pakistani Hindu refugees.

They had to postpone their plans earlier because the police were busy with a religious event called the Kanwar Yatra.

Now, the DDA is planning to try again.

They are working with the police and other groups to make sure everything goes smoothly and follows the rules set by the National Green Tribunal.

The goal is to remove the buildings and help the area near the river become healthy again.
