DDA demolished Delhi's camp, displacing thousands

A demolition drive at the Bhoomiheen camp in Kalkaji has displaced thousands, sparking outrage from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). AAP accuses the BJP government of betraying the poor and defying promises. The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) stated the demolition targeted ineligible dwellers encroaching on its land. The DDA said some residents were eligible for rehabilitation based on specific criteria, while others were not, and that most demolished structures were vacant. The DDA claims 1,862 eligible households were already rehabilitated. The demolition followed the in situ slum rehabilitation project guidelines.
