Kiran Bedi Seeks Delhi HC Intervention in Satya Niketan Building Collapse Case
Retired IPS officer Kiran Bedi has petitioned the Delhi High Court to be included as a party in the Satya Niketan building collapse case, which resulted in seven deaths. The Centre, Delhi government, and Municipal Corporation of Delhi opposed her intervention, alleging she is prejudging the matter. The court acknowledged Bedi's administrative experience and allowed authorities three days to respond, scheduling further hearings for September 25. The collapse raised concerns about safety in student accommodations near Delhi University.
