Top court says no divine power can wake up civic body

Supreme Court raps MCD for demolishing public library

The Supreme Court came down heavily on the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) on Monday for demolishing a building that housed a public library, without giving a chance to the affected party to seek relief, and said "there is no divine power which can wake you up".

The first Delhi Public Library (DPL) was started by then prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru near the Old Delhi railway station in 1951.

Infuriated, a bench of Justices Surya Kant and Ujjal Bhuyan questioned how could the civic body demolish the building that housed the DPL since 1954, without waiting for the parties to approach the apex court.
