Jehangirpuri - Colony soon over dry water body

NEW DELHI

A controversy is likely to break out in Jahangirpuri area of the city after Delhi government gave its nod to convert one of the largest water bodies in the city for building residential colonies. The government has identified the land as "not fit to be restored for water purpose', a move that doesn't gel with the "Green Delhi' plans of Sheila Dikshit-led Congress government.
