The Delhi High Court today sought the responses of the Lt Governor and three municipal bodies on a PIL seeking unification of the corporations.
"The matter requires consideration. File your counter affidavits," a bench of Chief Justice G Rohini and Justice Jayant Nath told the counsels for the LG and the East, South and North Delhi municipal corporations.
The court's order came on the plea of Sharad Tiwari who has sought unification of the three corporations on the ground that trifurcation has created the ongoing problem of lack of funds to pay salaries of the MCD employees.
The court has listed the matter for further hearing on March 23.
