Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court on Thursday directed the Delhi Government, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi, the New Delhi Municipal Council and the Delhi Development Authority to consider a suggestion to shift monkeys to Asola Bhatti Wildlife Sanctuary in South Delhi to rid the Capital of the menace.

A Division Bench of the Court comprising Justice Swatanter Kumar and Justice H. R. Malhotra passed the direction when advocate Meira Bhatia, petitioner in the matter, broached the suggestion to it.

The Bench directed the respondents to file their responses to the suggestion on February 13.
