The Municipal Corporation of Faridabad must appoint a nodal officer to address complaints of residents and submit a status report on the steps taken for rehabilitation, the Supreme Court said today in the Khori village eviction case. The court said a nodal officer must be present at the temporary shelter to address complaints of people whose houses have been demolished on grounds of encroachment of forest land. Those eligible must be rehabilitated, it said. The Faridabad civic body has said illegal structures, including farmhouses, shall be demolished by August 23. The Supreme Court had earlier ordered demolition of illegal structures in the village that falls under the Aravali forest area. The petitioners then moved the court, seeking a stay order.More Related News
