Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the conflict between a press note dated 27th November 2001 and a prior notification from 7th June 2000 regarding the sanctioning of building plans in Delhi. The Court held that construction activities should not proceed without ensuring the necessary civic infrastructure is in place, as mandated by the earlier notification. The implementation of the press note was stayed, reaffirming the requirement for infrastructure augmentation before permitting additional construction.
