31. Anita Gupta WP(C) No. Near Mohan Singh 4544/2011 Palace Baba Khadak Singh Road, New Delhi They have alleged that the respondents are in the process of disturbing/ dispossfi;;sing them from their squatter/ hawker sites. They have also averred that their names are in the eligibility list for being allotted alternate sites by respondent no.l/NDMC. Learned counsel for the respondent no.l states that NDMC is in the process of finalizing allotment by draw of plots of squatters/ hawkers in the area of NDMC. Be that as it may, it is the admitted case of the petitioners that the petitioners who are eligible for allotment of alternate sites are squarely covered by the judgment of this Court in W.P.(C) No.3364 of 2011 titled as Deepak Singh v NDMC & Ors decided on 25.05.2011. The decision of the said case shall apply to all the petitioners who are eligible for allotment of alternate sites and whose names find mention in the list prepared in this regard. It is submitted by learned counsel for respondent NDMC that the time of squatting as recommended by Thareja Committee and approved by the Hon'ble Supreme Court being "sunrise to sunset" may be directed to be applied to the petitioners. On the other hand, learned counsel for the petitioners submit that the scheme as formulated by NDMC in the I year 2006 has already bee~ approved by the Supreme Court in the case of Sudhir Madan and others v MCO & Others 2007(8) SCALE 339 on 1rh May, 2007. Without going into all these details, the scheme of NDMC as approved by the Supreme Court in the aforesaid case shall apply to the petitioners. Till their eligibility as squatters is decided, they shall not be disturbed or dispossessed from their respective sites. In W.P.(C) No.4525/2011, it is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that in the eligibility list of squatters prepared by NDMC, the name of the petitioner is not mentioned though an application in this regard has been filed by the petitioner with NDMC. Learned counsel for the respondent submits that he will inform the respondent in this respect and necessary actfJn will be taken. That satisfies the petitioner. These petitions stand disposed of.
