HC dispenses with appearance of HR&CE head in encroachments case
In 2022, the court directed the authorities to issue proper notices to all parties who are said to be in possession of the properties. Complaining that the earlier order passed by the court in 2022 has not been complied with, Radhakrishnan filed the present contempt petition in 2024. He filed a status report detailing the steps taken to remove the encroachments. On receipt of such notices, the parties are directed to file their respective objections along with documents available with them to the authority concerned.
