Rai said that during his surprise inspection, he was told by the employees that the site was an extension of the BJP’s central office.
In the wake of the deteriorating air quality in the capital city, the Delhi government on Sunday imposed the ban on construction and demolition activities.
“Construction and demolition activity has been prohibited in Delhi due to the city’s rising pollution. A total of 586 teams have been formed to monitor the construction-demolition ban. Water sprinkling has been intensified in view of the pollution situation. At least 521 water sprinklers, 233 anti-smog guns, and 150 mobile anti-smog guns have been deployed to tackle pollution in Delhi,” Rai had said on Sunday while announcing the ban.
