A court-appointed amicus curiae has petitioned the Supreme Court of India to compel the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) to address systemic unauthorized construction.

一名由法院委任的法庭之友已向印度最高法院請願，要求德里市政公司（MCD）解決系統性的違章建築問題。

The impetus for this legal intervention was the collapse of a five-story edifice in the Saidulajab district on May 30, an event resulting in six fatalities and fourteen injuries. According to the status report submitted by senior advocate Ajit Kumar Sinha on June 4, the structure at Plot No. 261, Western Marg, had been flagged for regulatory non-compliance as early as 2012, with subsequent violations documented in 2015. The amicus curiae posits that the continued expansion of the building—specifically the addition of the fourth and fifth levels—occurred despite these prior bookings, suggesting a failure by the MCD to execute its statutory mandates regarding the sealing or demolition of non-compliant properties.

此次法律干預的導火線是 5 月 30 日 Saidulajab 區一棟五層建築物崩塌，導致 6 人死亡及 14 人受傷。根據資深律師 Ajit Kumar Sinha 於 6 月 4 日提交的狀態報告，位於 Western Marg 261 號地塊的建築物早在 2012 年就被標記為不符合監管要求，隨後在 2015 年亦有紀錄顯示違規。法庭之友認為，儘管先前已有違規記錄，但該建築物仍繼續擴建——特別是加建了第四層與第五層，這顯示 MCD 在執行密封或拆除不合規物業的法定職責方面失效。

This specific incident is situated within a broader judicial context. On March 25, a bench comprising Justices Ahsanuddin Amanullah and R Mahadevan initiated a pan-India inquiry into the illicit conversion of residential land use and the pervasive disregard for building codes. Consequently, the current petition seeks a comprehensive structural audit of all premises within the MCD's jurisdiction and the submission of a detailed affidavit outlining the measures taken to mitigate unauthorized constructions. Furthermore, the petition requests that the Government of the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi and the municipal police provide reports on the Saidulajab incident, including the identification of negligent officials and the establishment of a compensation framework for the bereaved families.

此特定事件處於一個更廣泛的司法背景之中。3 月 25 日，由 Ahsanuddin Amanullah 法官與 R Mahadevan 法官組成的法庭，啟動了一項全印度調查，針對非法將住宅用地轉為其他用途以及普遍無視建築規範的情況。因此，目前的請願要求對 MCD 管轄範圍內的所有房屋進行全面的結構審計，並提交一份詳細的宣誓書，列出為減少違章建築所採取的措施。此外，請願書要求德里國家首都領地（NCT）政府與市政警察就 Saidulajab 事件提供報告，包括識別失職官員以及為遇難者家屬建立賠償機制。

The Supreme Court is now requested to mandate a systemic audit and enforce accountability for regulatory lapses within the municipal administration.

目前請求最高法院強制執行系統性審計，並就市政行政部門的監管失職追究責任。
