Steno Patna Civil Court Steno Dictation No. 823

The Supreme Court on Monday asked Delhi Development Authority (DDA) to clarify whether directions to cut around 1,100 trees in Delhi's ridge forest area in violation of the Court's orders were issued by Lieutenant Governor Vinai Saxena in his capacity as DDA Chairperson. A special bench of Justices Abhay S Oka and Ujjal Bhuyan took exception to the felling of the trees and said that two documents placed before the Court showed LG's involvement in the same. What is this? This is such a brazen act. Two documents placed on record clearly say that it was LG, the Court remarked. The Court sought clarity in this regard.
