The affidavit filed by the respondent Corporation is exactly on this score. His submission is that after receiving the complaints qua the unauthorized construction in this property (property No K-316, Village Lado Sarai, New Delhi), a part demolition action from the basement to the third floor had been proposed on 03.03.2014.

and was adequately protected under the provision of National Capital territory of Delhi Laws (Special Provisions) (Second Amendment) Act, 2014 till 31.12.2017. This submission of the learned counsel for the respondent Corporation is taken on record. No further orders are called for on this petition. It is disposed of.
