After 7 deaths in Satya Niketan collapse, PIL seeks hostel policy for Delhi
A public interest litigation has been filed in the Delhi High Court following the collapse of a building at Satya Niketan that resulted in seven deaths. The PIL seeks intervention from the court to formulate a comprehensive hostel policy for Delhi.
The petition raises concerns about the safety standards and regulatory oversight of residential hostels in the city. It calls for the implementation of stricter norms and regular inspections to prevent similar incidents in the future.
The building collapse has reignited debate over construction safety and accountability in Delhi's housing sector, with the PIL seeking court-mandated guidelines for hostel management and maintenance across the capital.
