Erecting new buildings in south and east Delhi is likely to get costlier, as the Municipal Corporation of Delhi on Wednesday approved a proposal to levy compensatory regulatory charges against circle rates while approving building plans.

South, east Delhi to pay more for getting building plans approved
The charges, which will be based on the built-up area, will be levied on new residential, industrial and commercial establishments, besides construction on agricultural land and in Low Density Residential Areas (LDRA).

The MCD’s approval means that the fee will now be levied across the city with immediate effect — earlier, it was charged only in areas of north Delhi.

Plots smaller than 250 square metre in size will be charged 0.05% of their cost as per circle rates (calculated at built-up area), while those bigger than 250 square metre will have to pay 0.1% extra.

The charge will therefore increase the cost of construction for residential buildings.

Top court cracks down on bulldozer justice by states

Describing a house as \"an embodiment of the collective hopes of a family or individuals' stability and security\", the Supreme Court on Wednesday laid down nationwide guidelines to curb arbitrary demolitions by state authorities, marking a significant moment in the battle against what has come to be known as \"bulldozer justice\"-- the practice of razing the properties of people accused of crimes, and, sometimes, of their families, often using earthmovers or bulldozers, without following due process.

Biden meets Trump, promises smooth transition of power

Donald Trump left White House on January 20, 2021, as a bitter man angry at the 2020 election results that he continued to reject, as an isolated man whose own party sought to distance itself from Trump after the mob insurrection on US Capitol, as a politician whose political obituary was being widely written in Washington DC and beyond, and as a president who had broken the tradition of peaceful transfer of power.
