The Council also approved that residential land rates of RK Puram and Moti Bagh be adopted for the purpose of calculation of damage charges, in respect of flats located in Sarojini Nagar market.

"Since, Sarojini Nagar Market was not mentioned in the schedule of residential land rates, hence the department calculated the damage charges in respect of residential flats situated in Sarojini Nagar by considering land rates of RK Puram, which are on the lower side," he said.

Upadhyay said the civic body had received earlier representations from the market traders associations on this issue.
