New Delhi: Arguing that it was difficult to regularise over 1,600 unauthorised colonies in the city as per the existing guidelines, the Delhi government has sought amendments in the Centre’s 2008 notification. Urban development minister Satyendra Jain on Thursday said the Delhi government wants 1,639 unauthorised colonies to be regularised on "as is, where is" basis. A similar move had been proposed by the then Sheila Dikshit dispensation, but rejected by the then UPA government.
