Supreme Court orders independent audit of unauthorized Delhi NCR constructions

Gurugram buildings lacked basic fire safety

The court wants high-risk areas like Malviya Nagar, Lajpat Nagar, Saket, and Lucknow's Aliganj inspected for safety lapses, especially since 93% of surveyed buildings in Gurugram lacked basic fire safety.
The state of Tamil Nadu and Patna's municipal corporation have also been told to report what they are doing about illegal buildings.

The message is simple: stricter checks are coming, and accountability finally matters.
