NEW DELHI: On Wednesday, Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) carried out a demolition drive against encroachment by removing illegal constructions in Delhiโ€™s strife-torn Jahangirpuri area. Communal clashes had broken out in the area last week during a Hanuman Jayanti procession. However, after the Supreme Courtโ€™s order to halt the drive, the demolition was stopped. North Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) Mayor Raja Iqbal Singh said that the civic body will follow the apex courtโ€™s orders and take action accordingly.
