Delhi Police Intensify Demolition of Illegal PGs Amid Student Evacuations

Delhi police have intensified the demolition of illegal paying‑guest (PG) accommodations across the city, targeting structures that violate housing regulations. The crackdown has led to the evacuation of several hundred students who were residing in these facilities. Authorities cited the unsafe nature of the hubs, noting that many PGs lacked proper fire exits, structural integrity and compliance with safety norms. The operation aims to ensure student safety and enforce municipal housing laws.
