Sri Manas Kumar Pal & anr. Vs. The Hooghly Chinsurah Municipality & ors.
Mr. Kajal Ray
…. for the petitioners
1. The affidavit-of-service filed in Court today is taken on record.
2. Complaining illegal construction at the behest of the private respondents at the property adjacent to holding No. 16/8/3/A, Under Mouza-Uttar Chandannagar, Khatian Nos. 5919 and 5926, Dag No. 5324, under Hooghly Chinsurah Municipality and the failure on the part of the municipal authorities to take appropriate action, the instant writ petition has been filed.
3. Having heard the learned advocates appearing for the petitioner, and though the respondents remain unrepresented, however, noting that a complaint has been made, I am of the view, complaint should be disposed of. However, disposal of the complaint should be limited to the illegal construction of septic tank and should not include the tin shed which in ordinary course appears to be a temporary structure.
4. Accordingly, the municipality or any person in charge of the municipality is directed to hear out and dispose of the complaint in accordance with law, on

an expeditious basis by passing a reasoned order preferably within a period of sixteen weeks from the date of communication of this order
5. With the above observations and directions, the writ petition is disposed of.
