Before visiting
A documented Delhi geological occurrence is not collecting permission. Much of the Ridge is reserved/protected forest, Asola-Bhatti is a wildlife sanctuary, biodiversity parks are conservation landscapes, and Yamuna/alluvial areas are urban or regulated land. Verify current land ownership, forest/wildlife status, floodplain/environment controls and mineral-removal permission before taking any rock, sand, gravel or other material.
