New Delhi, Sept 5 (ZEENEWS.COM) As the sealing drive gained momentum in the capital, BJP today asked the Centre to pitch in with an amnesty plan to provide relief to thousands of Delhiites by regularising all buildings constructed on private-held land.

The opposition party also alleged that the Centre and the state government, both led by Congress, have made the people of capital "fools" by repeated promises of providing relief.

Proposing a general amnesty scheme to help people who bear the brunt of the ongoing sealing and demolition drive, BJP'S deputy leader in Lok Sabha V K Malhotra said the plan should envisage regularisation of all houses and shops built on their own lands.

"This does not mean that we are for regularising constructions on encraoched land," Malhotra told reporters here releasing a letter written by him to Urban Development Minister S Jaipal Reddy in this regard.

The BJP leader said schools recognised by the government and MCD should be spared from the ongoing demolition drive as it affects the future of a lot of students.

He also ridiculed the present system of categorising areas on the basis of house and property tax was flawed as political pressure can effect changes in the categorisation.

Like earmarking industrial areas, commercial areas should be marked, he said. He also demanded that mixed use land should be allowed in all the areas of Delhi. For the purpose of mixed land use the compulsion of the house owners to run the shops should end, he said.

In the letter, he also asked the government not to demolish religious places built before January 2006 and to regularise all unauthorised colonies on public and non-public land so that lakhs of underprivileged people would be benfitted.
