Building Bylaws

The Delhi government has approved amendments to its building bylaws banning rooftop as well as basement kitchens and stopping issuance of fire safety certificates to guest houses having more than four floors, days after a massive blaze at a hotel in Karol Bagh killed 17 people.

The Delhi High Court has rapped the Aam Aadmi Party government asking how it can regularise unauthorised colonies, comprising illegal structures and buildings, without proper building plan approvals.

The Union government has relaxed building bylaws in poll-bound Delhi, in which, among other things, sanctioning of building plans have been made easier.
