JUDGMENT
1. The present writ petition has been filed seeking quashing of the communication dated 01st November, 2024, issued by the Office of the Executive Engineer, Delhi Development Authority (“DDA”), which reads as under:
2. Learned counsel appearing for the DDA submits that the matter with regard to the subject matter of the present writ petition, has been referred to the Religious Committee on 05th April, 2025. She submits that proceedings are pending before the Religious Committee, and as of now there is no recommendation by the Religious Committee for taking any action against the property in question, i.e., Noori Masjid, Sector 20, Rohini, New Delhi. She, thus, submits that no action shall be taken by the DDA till the matter is pending before the Religious Committee, and therefore, the present writ petition is pre-mature.
3. Accordingly, this Court notes the aforesaid submissions made by the DDA that no action shall be taken till any recommendation in this regard is made by the Religious Committee. This Court further takes note of the fact that the matter is still pending before the Religious Committee.
4. At this stage, learned Senior Counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that a requisite notice ought to be given to the petitioner by the DDA in terms of the judgment passed by the Supreme Court, before any action is sought to be taken, if so recommended by the said Religious Committee.
5. Accordingly, it is directed that requisite action shall be taken by the DDA only if any recommendation is made by the Religious Committee in that regard, after issuance of the requisite notice to the petitioner, in accordance with law.
6. Needless to state, in case, the petitioner is aggrieved by any order passed by the DDA/Religious Committee, the petitioner is at liberty to seek its remedies, in accordance with law.
7. With the aforesaid directions, the present writ petition, along with the pending application, stands disposed of. MINI PUSHKARNA, J NOVEMBER 6, 2025
