Amidst protests and controversy, the Delhi government has defended its demolition drives in the national capital, claiming that it is only enforcing the law and that such actions are necessary to safeguard the city's infrastructure. In the recent drive on Wednesday, June 8, authorities allegedly demolished structures in Bhoomiheen camp, allegedly claimed by both legally registered and unauthorized slum dwellers. This has raised questions about the inconsistencies in the government's statements and actions.
According to senior AAP leader Atishi, "Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has claimed that no slums will be razed in the national capital. But here we are, with our homes being bulldozed in Bhoomiheen camp. Several people, including women and children, have been left without a home. If this is the law's implementation, then I am afraid, we are failing miserably."
Several questions have been raised about the government's intentions and handling of the situation. The issue has gained widespread media attention and has sparked debates about social and economic inequalities in the nation's capital.
As the situation develops, the government's commitment to providing shelter and addressing the needs of the most vulnerable populations will be closely monitored.
