UP government won’t take action on demolition notices till Oct 23



Earlier in one of the hearings, the apex court, while hearing a bulldozer justice matter, had made it clear that the house of a person cannot be demolished merely because he is an accused. The stand of the UP government during the proceedings was that houses of persons cannot be demolished merely because they are accused of a crime.The apex court had also suggested and decided to lay down pan-India guidelines to prevent the abuse of municipal laws, without protecting unauthorised constructions, and recently it had also reserved the order in the matter.The case of Bahraich pertains to a procession that was going on October 13 for immersion of Goddess Durga idol was being carried out in the Maharajganj area of Bahraich, when some local members of a particular community objected to the playing of loud music, following which violence allegedly erupted.The plea sought appropriate directions on the ground that the court had already said that it would lay down guidelines on the issue and the UP government order is thereby illegal.”The trigger for the proposed demolitions notices is the close proximity of the communal flare-up and violence incident. The urgency shown and the short three days time that has been given to respond to the Notice when the applicants have been occupying the house/shops for decades. The short time of three days to respond to the notice denies reasonable opportunity and time to the applicants to seek legal remedy,” the plea said.
