Justice Najmi Waziri, in an order passed on July 10, asked the South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) to treat the doctor's petition as representation and that a decision be taken and communicated to her within four weeks.
The court said if the corporation requires any additional documents, they shall be supplied to it by the doctor within two weeks of receipt of such notice and compounding charges, that may be payable, shall be paid by her on receiving communication from the SDMC.
