Supreme Court Halts Uttarakhand Eviction
Thousands of people who faced the prospect of being left homeless in the middle of the harsh North Indian winter won a major reprieve from the Supreme Court on Thursday as it paused an eviction drive on railway land in Uttarakhand's Haldwani. "There cannot be uprooting of 50,000 people overnight... It's a human issue, some workable solution needs to be found," the Supreme Court said.
