    What is actually true

    13 of 33

    Bela Estate residents allotted alternate plots, DDA affidavit, Delhi High Court, March 2023

    indiankanoon.org

    The Delhi High Court's order of 27 March 2023 in Bela Estate Mazdoor Basti Samiti v. Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board records that the DDA told the court that 13 of 33 residents had been allotted alternate plots at Bawana and Narela, 7 were ineligible, and for 13 the DDA could not find allotment details. The DDA said some residents were either ineligible or had been allotted alternate plots but returned to the flood plains. The court directed a survey before any demolition activity. The Supreme Court's order of 15 May 2023 shows an appeal against the High Court order was pending.

    • The Delhi High Court's 27 March 2023 order records the DDA's affidavit that 13 of 33 Bela Estate residents were allotted alternate plots at Bawana and Narela, 7 were ineligible, and for 13 the DDA could not find allotment details. [1]
    • The same order directed the DDA and DUSIB to carry out a survey before conducting any demolition activity in the area. [1]
    • The DDA told the court that some residents were either ineligible or had been allotted alternate plots but returned to the flood plains. [1]
    • The Supreme Court's 15 May 2023 order shows the residents' appeal against the High Court order was pending. [3]

    [1] Bela Estate Mazdoor Basti Samiti vs Delhi Urban Shelter ... — indiankanoon.org[3] Bela Estate Mazdoor Basti Samiti vs Delhi Urban Shelter ... — indiankanoon.org

    The claim says houses were demolished in 2023, but the record does not show any demolition in 2023. As of the High Court's March 2023 order, demolition was pending and subject to a survey, and an appeal was pending in the Supreme Court in May 2023. The DDA's statement that some residents returned to the flood plains supports that some continued to live in the area, but it describes return after being allotted alternate plots, not after a 2023 demolition. So the claim is misleading.
