OD –24 WPO/996/2024 IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA CONSTITUTIONAL WRIT JURISDICTION ORIGINAL SIDE SARMILA CHANDRA -VERSUS- THE KOLKATA MUNICIPAL CORPORATION AND ORS. BEFORE: The Hon'ble JUSTICE KAUSIK CHANDA Date: 19th March, 2025 Appearance: Mr. Raghunath Chakraborty, Adv. Ms. Mohana Das, Adv. ...for the petitioner. Mr. Biswajit Mukherjee, Adv. Ms. Manisha Nath, Adv. …for the KMC. Mr. TariqueQuasimuddin, Adv. Mr. Zainab Tahur, Adv. ...for the respondent nos.9 to 20. Mr. Sabyasachi Mondal, Adv. Mr. Manoj Malhotra, Adv. ...for the State. The Court:The petitioner seeks the implementation of a demolition order dated May 31, 2024, passed in respect of Premises No. 66, Biplabi Rash Behari Bose Road, Ward-42, Borough-V, under the Kolkata Municipal Corporation. Learned counsel appearing for Respondents Nos. 9 to 20, on the other hand, submits that these respondents have filed an appeal before the Municipal Building Tribunal, which has been registered as BT Appeal No. 107 of 2024. 2 In my view, since a statutory appeal has already been filed against the demolition order dated May 31, 2024, there is no need to pass any order in this writ petition at this stage. However, it is expected that the Tribunal dispose of the pending appeal, along with the connected application, as expeditiously as possible. Accordingly, WPO/996/2024 stands disposed of.
