Delhi pollution: SC asks is Central Vista project construction work going on despite ban?

The Supreme Court has pulled up the Centre for continuing with the Central Vista project despite a ban on construction in Delhi.

The Supreme Court on Monday, November 29, pulled up the Centre over the ongoing construction of the Central Vista in Delhi despite a ban on such works.

When senior advocate Vikas Singh pointed out that Central Vista construction was going on in full swing despite a ban on construction, the CJI said: “We are struggling to control pollution. Whether it is Central vista or industry or anything else. We will ask them to explain. Don't flag certain issues and focus on those. Otherwise, the issue will be diverted.”
