2026:UHC:5537 pending between respondent no. 6 and petitioner in which, order of temporary injunction has been passed. It is thus submitted that because of temporary injunction granted by civil Court, it is not possible to make any development on the road.
5. This Court do not find any scope for interference, there are hundreds of roads within Municipal Corporation, Dehradun and many such roads are facing the problem of waterlogging. If petitioner has any grievance in the matter, then he should have approached the Municipal Authority or other competent authority. This Court cannot issue direction to Municipal Corporation to develop the road leading to the house of petitioner. Thus relief as claimed cannot be granted.
6. Writ petition fails and is dismissed.
