Madrasi Camp to be razed on June 1

THE Delhi High Court has directed that the demolition of Madrasi Camp will begin from June 1, while issuing a set of instructions to ensure a smooth rehabilitation process for its residents.

A division bench of Justice Prathiba M Singh and Justice Manmeet Pritam Singh Arora stressed that the demolition must be carried out in a systematic manner and that proper resettlement of the camp dwellers is necessary to clear the Barapullah drain.

The Court clarified that the occupants of the camp have no claim over the land apart from their right to rehabilitation and said that the area is public land that has been encroached upon. It also noted that the demolition had been on hold since September 2024 and that the residents were well aware of the legal proceedings, having participated in a survey meant to determine their eligibility for relocation.
