Sir,

Re : Confirmation of Land owning authority being yourselves

I am to bring to your attention we are residents of Defence Colony, New Delhi 110024, and call ourselves "Friends of Defence Colony", a volunteer group of the residents. Our credo is friends of animals, nature and environment.

We were today in a meeting with Mr. Sanjiv Kumar, Hon'ble Secretary Environment and Forests, to work out a plan to restore the Green Belts around Defence Colony, which have been degraded by the onslaught of urbanization.

During our discussions, the question arose on the land owning authority of peripheral land of Defence Colony. Since land is owned by a multitude of organisations, we wish to identify the real owner of peripheral land, which in all probability is PWD Delhi,i.e. yourselves, to begin work on this project. 

We would by way of this email, seek your confirmation on this matter, that the land bounding Defence Colony on all four sides is owned by yourselves,i.e. PWD Delhi. Once we have this confirmation, we shall be requesting the good offices of the Pr.Chief Conservator Forests, under the advice of Secretary Environment & Forests to action a plan for this restoration of Green Belts.

Your Urgent reply in this matter is solicited.

Yours faithfully

Rajeev Suri
