New Delhi: In a major development, the Delhi High Court on Monday dismissed a petition seeking suspension of the ongoing construction work of the Central Vista project amid the pandemic.
The court has also said that the Central Vista was a “vital, essential national project”.
A bench of Chief Justice D N Patel and Justice Jyoti Singh has also fined the petitioners Rs 1 lakh and said the petition is not bona fide and a
motivated petition.
Since the workers are staying on-site, there is no question of staying the Central Vista construction work and all Covid protocols are being followed, there is no reason to stay the project, the court said.
