which were dismissed. Hence, she is therefore before this Court.
3. When this petition was listed on 30.10.2025, the following order was passed:
Learned counsel for the petitioner after arguing the petitions for some time, submitted that the petitioner, who is common in both these petitions, has stopped the construction on the respective properties involved in these petitions. He submits that the petitioner would file an application to amalgamate the respective properties involved in these petitions and for issuance of a fresh plan. He, therefore, submits that a direction be issued to the respondents to consider the application of the petitioner for amalgamation of the respective properties involved in these petitions and for issuance of a fresh plan. In order to enable the petitioner to file an appropriate application for amalgamation of the respective properties involved in these petitions and to file an application for a fresh plan after amalgamation, list these petitions on 07.11.2025.

of the respective properties involved in these petitions and for issuance of a fresh plan.
5. In that view of the matter, since there is no serious challenge to the violations reported by the respondents, no indulgence can be shown to the petitioner in these petitions.
6. However, if the petitioner desires to save the building, constructed by her, she may file applications for amalgamation of both the properties within two months from today and also for sanction of a plan.
7. If the petitioner in these petitions fails to avail this opportunity, the respondents shall take necessary steps for demolishing the structures already put up by the petitioner.
