The survey in the Sarojini Nagar Market area has already taken place in the months of June-July of 2025 and the last date for filing the representation for the same was 31st July, 2025.

The prayer in this petition is that the Petitioner had participated in the said survey and had also made a representation on 18th July, 2025.

The representation which had been filed is dated 18th July, 2025 and the original has been shown to the Court. Considering that the Petitioner’s case is that he had participated in the survey and he has submitted the documents and his representation which dated 18th July, 2025, the Court is inclined to permit the Petitioner’s case to be considered by the Respondent in accordance with law. 7. If any digital verification is to be done, let the same be done and a decision shall be taken in respect of the Petitioner by the Town Vending Committee in accordance with law. 8. The petition is disposed of in the aforesaid terms. Pending applications, if any, are also disposed of. PRATHIBA M. SINGH, J MADHU JAIN, J JANUARY 12, 2026 kk/ck This is a digitally signed order.
