Mr. Vimal Kumar Shahi
Mrs. Pratiti Das
Mr. Bhakti Prasad Das
Mr. Saptarshi Guha
…for the State
Affidavit of service filed on behalf of the
petitioner is taken on record.
The petitioner’s grievance is with regard to the
alleged unauthorized construction by the private
respondents.
Learned counsel appearing for the private
respondents obviously disputes such contention of the
petitioner.
Learned counsel appearing for the State has
submitted a letter of the Inspector-in-Charge of
Baguiati Police Station dated 23.10.2024 addressed to
the learned Government Pleader, High Court at
2
Calcutta which is taken on record.
It appears from the record that the petitioner’s
representation dated 17.09.2024 is yet to be
considered and disposed of by the respondent-
Bidhannagar Municipal Corporation.
Let this writ petition be disposed of with a
direction upon the respondent no.3 to consider and
dispose of the petitioner’s representation dated
17.09.2024 and in doing so, the respondent no.3 shall
afford an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner as
well as the private respondents and allow them to
show and rely upon the necessary documents to
substantiate their respective cases.
Let the respondent no.3 complete the exercise as
above within a period of four weeks from the date of
communication of this order and pass its reasoned
order.
Needless to say that in case the respondent no.3
finds any unauthorized construction to have taken
place as alleged, it shall proceed in accordance with
law in that event.
In disposing of the representation of the
petitioner as above, the respondent no.3 shall be at
liberty to cause an inspection of the concerned
premise by himself or by any other authorized officer,
if so found fit and proper.
The writ petitioner is thus disposed of.
