The #SupremeCourt on Tuesday criticized the timelines provided in the housing policy proposed by the Faridabad Municipal Corporation for rehabilitation of persons affected by the demolition of #KhoriGaon jhuggis in Faridabad, Haryana.
The Court ordered that the corporation has to give provisional accommodation to the dwellers in State flats after provisional scrutiny which will be subject to the final adjudication and final draw of lots.
As per the policy, the Jhuggi dwellers will be shifted to the housing facility by April 2022 but the Bench of Justices AM Khanwilkar and Dinesh Maheshwari was not impressed by the same stating that rehabilitation cannot take so long.
