In the event the construction raised by the private respondent is found to be illegal/unauthorised, the concerned authority shall take necessary steps, in accordance with law. The writ petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. Since no affidavit has been invited, allegations contained in the writ petition shall be deemed not to have been admitted.
