Delhi Mayor Orders Strict Action Against Spa Centres and Hotels Violating MCD RulesPreviousNext

Delhi Mayor Pravesh Wahi has directed the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) to intensify inspections and enforce strict action against spa centres, hotels, motels, and other commercial establishments violating civic rules. This follows recent fire incidents in Lucknow and Malviya Nagar. Officials from all 12 MCD zones were instructed to hold weekly review meetings and enhance surveillance. The mayor also called for joint enforcement drives on waste management and urged the finalisation of an e-cart policy. Delhi Police support was sought for monitoring and action where needed.
