A senior DDA official said traders have flagged problems regarding water, electricity and streetlights to avoid taking possession in Narela.

Several lapses in construction of the building and a total absence of any kind of fire safety, including a no-objection certificate, have also been pointed out by officials.

The SAD contested four seats in the 2013 and 2015 assembly polls — Hari Nagar, Rajouri Garden, Kalkaji and Shahadara. While the party won only the Rajouri Garden seat in 2013, it lost all seats in the 2015 polls.

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA), which is the nodal agency for implementation of in-situ development of JJ clusters, has completed the demand survey of 32 JJ clusters and started a survey of 160 slums on DDA lands in various parts of the city.

According to Jaju, the councillors were conveyed this by a senior leader in a recently held meeting, where they were asked to continue good work and not focus on getting a ticket.

According to a DDA official, while a conveyance deed grants ownership rights to people and will be recorded with the body, registration of the property will mean they can take loan on it or sell it.

Tiwari, who was present at the event, said: “As a state president, my duty is to ensure that we form a government in the state. The issue is not who will be CM; instead we should look at the AAP’s restlessness. This shows that they will not be able to sleep at night.”

The concept has been taken from pracharaks in the RSS, whose job entails promoting the Sangh’s policies.

A senior leader said the party does not want to make last-minute changes as it feels it has delivered a good performance in the corporation and Lok Sabha polls, which it had fought under Manoj Tiwari’s leadership.

For adults visiting the parks with their children, features such as benches, gazebos, walkways, rubberised pathways for exercise will also be included.

Senior leaders, as well as booth- and mandal-level workers are expected to take this message to people in the days ahead.

Sealing was carried out on the orders of the SC-appointed monitoring committee for properties that were residential on paper but being used as commercial premises and other violations.

Party MPs and the state unit’s top functionaries are also asked to join the meeting if the day’s agenda needs their intervention or falls in their jurisdiction.

Amid heavy police presence in the area in the wake of the Supreme Court's Ayodhya verdict a day earlier, most leaders stressed on Hindu-Muslim unity.

Regularisation of unauthorised colonies has remained a major poll issue in Delhi for decades. The BJP and the AAP have been vying to take credit for giving ownership rights to the people living in these settlements, ahead of Assembly polls next year.

Sources in BJP said that the senior leadership was also divided on the method of protest.

All three civic bodies are ruled by the BJP and party leaders have inaugurated or announced a slew of new projects in the past two weeks — new classrooms in MCD schools; bonus to sanitation staff; and allocating money for ghats ahead of Chhath puja.

Post Diwali, the BJP will launch Phase II of the outreach programme in the colonies in which senior leaders and morcha presidents will be given responsibility of a district each, said a senior leader.

The key responsibility of implementing the Centre’s decision lies with the DDA, the city’s land-owning agency, which has set itself an ambitious deadline of three months to execute the project.
