The Supreme Court on Monday completely lifted the ban on construction activities in Delhi-NCR.

The order passed by the Court on Dec 9 last month which had barred construction activities during night from 6 pm to 6 am was recalled today by a Bench of Justices Arun Mishra & Deepak Gupta.

The court had imposed a complete ban on construction activities in Delhi-NCR on Nov 4, 2019. This was after taking into account the drastic deterioration in air quality in & around the national capital.

This order was modified on Dec 9 after the central pollution control board informed the court that the ban can be partially lifted. The court, agreed to the same & had permitted construction during day time while the ban continued on night time construction activities.

“Recall the order of Nov 4”, the bench said today.
