New Delhi, Aug. 11 -- A day after the Public Works Department (PWD) flagged irregularities in the Chandni Chowk redevelopment project, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday demanded that a larger probe be carried out in the case, also including the Shahjahanabad Redevelopment Corporation (SRDC). The party demanded the dissolution of the SRDC and a full audit of its 10 years of operations. "The officers have always viewed Chandni Chowk only as a Mughal-era city, never understanding or appreciating its commercial identity," Delhi BJP spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor said. Officials from the SRDC did not respond to HT's requests for comment.htc
