On the written requisition of a Secretary to the Central Government, the Chairperson may at any time undertake the execution of any work certified by such Secretary to be urgently required in public interest, and for this purpose may temporarily make payments from the New Delhi Municipal Fund so far as the same can be met without unduly interfering with the regular work of the Council.

The cost of work so executed and of the Establishment engaged in executing the same shall be paid by the Central Government and credited to the New Delhi Municipal Fund.

On the receipt of any requisition under sub-section (1) the Chairperson shall forthwith forward a copy thereof to the Council together with a report of the steps taken by him in pursuance of the same.
