Drawing attention to page numbers 17 to 18 of the instant writ petition, being the copy of the representation dated 12.06.2026, it is submitted that finding no other alternative, the writ petitioner approached the respondent authorities for removal of the said illegal encroachment at the instance of the private respondent, but in vain. 9.
