Supreme Court gave a green signal to the government to go ahead with its construction activities near the Yamuna river bed for the Commonwealth Games.
A three judge Bench of Chief Justice K.G. Balakrishnan, P.Sathasivam and B.S.Chauhan quashed the Delhi High Court order that had put various restrictions on the construction activities citing environmental hazards.
The Supreme Court said the government had observed due process of law by issuing necessary notifications as early as on September 21, 1999 and invited suggestions and objections from citizens and various organisations.
