Failure to comply with notice under section 6 and power of Inspector to carry out measures.- (1) If an occupier, upon whom a notice has been served under sub-section (1) of section 6, does not comply with such notice within the time specified therein, or if an appeal has been preferred under sub-section (2) of section 6, does not comply with the order passed on such appeal within the time specified in such order, the Inspector may carry out at the expense of the occupier the preventive or remedial measures mentioned in such notice or order. (2) The costs of any preventive or remedial measures carried out under sub-section (1) shall be payable by the occupier and shall be recoverable from him as an arrear of land revenue.

(4). On receipt of the appeal under sub-section (3), the Collector or other officer appointed by the State Government shall, after giving the occupier an opportunity of being heard, pass such order thereon as he thinks fit. (5). An order passed under sub-section (4) shall be final and conclusive and shall not be liable to be called in question in any court.
