for asking them to shift from Type- VIII accommodation to Type-VII.<\/p>\n<p>The Centre had conveyed to the court that the two bungalows were handed over to the RS Secretariat, but the licence remained with the Urban Development Ministry. So the two houses were put back in the general pool for allotment to Cabinet ministers.<\/p>\n<p>It had said the two MPs should vacate the bungalows and move into Type-VII houses of their choice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Delhi High Court today dismissed pleas of Congress MPs Ambika Soni and Kumari Selja challenging the central government&#8217;s orders to evict them from type-VIII bungalows in Lutyens&#8217; Delhi. &#8220;Petitions are dismissed,&#8221; Justice Rajiv Sahai Endlaw said.
