Bulldozers rolled into Delhi's Jahangirpuri on Wednesday morning to demolish illegal constructions after the North Delhi Municipal Corporation launched an anti-encroachment drive.
A few hours later, the Supreme Court halted the demolition. But it was too late. Ganesh Kumar Gupta's juice shop had already been partially razed.
Speaking exclusively to India Today, he said that his shop had been allotted by Delhi Development Authority in 1977 and he had all the required document to prove the same.
