|May 02, 2025
The Supreme Court on Wednesday passed an interim order restraining the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) and other authorities from shifting the remaining deer from AN Jha Deer Park in Delhi's Hauz Khas area to forest zones in Rajasthan and other states.
-
A bench comprising justices Abhay S. Oka and Ujjal Bhuyan issued the interim direction on a petition filed by the New Delhi Nature Society.
The petition stated that about 600 deer in the park were at risk of being relocated without proper habitat assessments, veterinary checks, or safeguards for vulnerable groups such as pregnant deer and fawns.
It also contended that three batches of deer had already been relocated to predator-dense sanctuaries in Rajasthan, allegedly in violation of wildlife protection laws.
The court order stated, "For the time being, we restrain the respondents from shifting the existing deer out of the Deer Park at Hauz Khas, New Delhi. We also make it clear that the deer shall be properly looked after by the authorities."
