The villagers from Delhi's rural belt staged a peaceful demonstration, in keeping with the traditions of the Panchayat, led by the pradhans of the respective Khaps under the leadership of Chaudhary Surendra Solanki, chief of Palam 360.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) faced a crushing defeat in the Delhi assembly elections, with prominent leaders Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia, and Saurabh Bhardwaj losing their respective constituencies on Saturday.
Solanki hit out at the Delhi and central governments, alleging that the city's rural belt has been neglected for a long time, with civic issues piling up and forcing people to live in inhuman conditions.
In a letter to support the villagers, Dwarka Court bar association president, Dr N C Sharma mentioned, “In a meeting of the lawyers held in Dwarka district, the association has announced to support the of Palam-360 Khap’s decision.”
Solanki said that the Palam 360 along with the Delhi Police had earlier run a campaign to make rural areas of Delhi drug free.
The delegation urged the Delhi government to restore the mutation process for properties in Delhi, which will pave the way for owners of properties in the village areas.
