nThe Delhi’s Public Work Department (PWD) Minister Satyendar Jain has said that directions of the High Court and the Religious Committee of the city Government, regarding Bhai Mati Das Chowk, should be implemented and the historic structure be made an “integrated” part of Chandani Chowk road redevelopment plan.
A complaint has been filed by Preetpal Chawla, president of Bhai Mati Das Sewa Simran Society, seeking permission for upkeep of the historic chowk through Delhi Government’s public grievance management system, said a Government official. Bhai Mati Das Chowk, just in front of Sisganj Gurudwara in Chandni Chowk area, has a memorial of Bhai Mati Das who was an aide of Guru Tegh Bahadur. He was executed along with his younger brother by the Mughals in the medieval period.
