As per the petitioner, the petitioner is only making some repairs which is necessary in this season. Further, from paragraph No.10 of the order passed in writ petition, I find that in WP(C) No.1294 of 2025, the Court stayed the operation of order dated 18.03.2025 passed in U.C. Case No.1 of 2025. There is no order passed to restrain the petitioner from making any repair works. 6.
