The Delhi High Court came down heavily on the Municipal Corporation of Delhi for adopting a "pick-and-choose policy" on demolitions by sparing an unauthorised shopping mall at MG13 but demolishing MG1 and MG2 on Mehrauli-Gurgaon Road. It also pulled up the civic agency for not taking action against officials found guilty of conniving with builders in mushrooming unauthorised constructions across the Capital. When MCD counsel A. S. Chandhiok tried to defend the sealing of MG13 on the ground that there was apprehension of a law and order problem, the Division Bench comprising Justice Vijender Jain and Justice Rekha Sharma observed: "The law cannot be made to dance at the feet of mobocracy. We know how the mob was mobilised."
