The prayer in this writ petition is for issuance of a direction to respondent No.2 to consider the representation dated 29.10.2024, a copy of which is produced at Annexure ‘F’. 2. As could be seen from Annexure ‘F’, the petitioner is aggrieved by the illegal religious temporary structure being put up and has been requesting the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike ('the BBMP') to take action. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioner places reliance on photographs at Annexures ‘D’ and ‘D1’ to indicate that the structure has been put up on - 3 - NC: 2025:KHC:7474 WP No. 1449 of 2025 the road thereby causing impediment to the proper movement of the public and vehicles. 4. In my view, since the petitioner is contending that there is an impediment for the movement of the residents of the area by virtue of erection of illegal structure, it would be appropriate to direct respondent No.2 to consider the representation of the petition dated 29.10.2024 and pass appropriate order in this regard within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. 5. If respondent No.3 were to come to the conclusion that the structure would be illegal, the same shall be dismantled and for this, respondent No.4 shall render all necessary assistance. 6. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. Sd/- (N S SANJAY GOWDA) JUDGE RK, List No.: 1 Sl No.: 78
