New Delhi, Feb 24 (IANS) Parliament Tuesday passed a bill amending the Public Premises (Eviction of Unauthorised Occupants) Act, 1971 in a move towards expediting Delhi Metro's work.
The Public Premises (Eviction of Unauthorised Occupants) Amendment Bill, 2014 will amend the Public Premises (Eviction of Unauthorised Occupants) Act, 1971 which provides for the speedy eviction of unauthorised occupants from public premises, including those of government companies and corporations.
"It pertains to Delhi Metro. Metro people want the work to be expedited and certain blocks are coming in their way," Urban Development Minister M. Venkaiah Naidu said Tuesday as the bill was taken up in the Rajya Sabha.
