Municipal authorities carried out a large‑scale sealing drive at Kucha Mahajani in Delhi's Chandni Chowk, targeting illegal structures and encroachments.
Municipal officials launched a sweeping sealing operation at Kucha Mahajani, a narrow lane in the historic Chandni Chowk area of Delhi. The drive focused on shutting down structures that were deemed illegal or in violation of city regulations.
The teams moved in coordinated squads, sealing entrances and posting notices on the affected premises. Officials said the action was part of an ongoing effort to clear congested lanes and enforce building codes in the capital's heritage zones.
Local shop owners and residents reported temporary disruption as the sealing crews worked through the lane. Authorities assured that the operation complied with legal procedures and that affected parties would be informed of the next steps for regularisation or removal.
The sealing is expected to improve pedestrian movement and reduce safety hazards in the densely populated market area, officials added.
