The Delhi High Court on Tuesday refused to stay the impending notification of regularisation of as many as 917 unauthorised colonies in the Capital, saying it would consider the plea when it takes up the matter for hearing on September 6.

H.R. Suri, an architecture graduate from IIT, Karagpur, had sought a stay on the proposed notification pleading it was very likely that the Delhi Government would regularise these colonies as the Union Ministry for Urban Development had given its go-ahead for it.
