No divine power can wake up civic body: SC to MCD over library demolition - Business Standard

Quick Summary:

The SC bench said strangely, during the hearing, the counsel for the MCD maintained that the civic body had not caused the demolition.

The high court's order had come on a petition against the North Delhi Municipal Corporation's notices to the library to vacate the premises, which according to the civic body was structurally unfit and dangerous.

In its order, the high court had said since the plea before it primarily pertained to preservation of books at the DPL's Karol Bagh branch, it would not interfere in the dispute over the building where the library was housed since 1954.
