He further submits that the learned Court below passed the decree in favour of the petitioners and directed the State Government to vacate the premises within a period of three months, but despite the Court's order to vacate the premises within three months, the State Government did not vacate the said premises. He also submits that on 15.10.2022, in presence of government officials the police force entered the land in question and removed the illegal structure/encroachments in the light of order dated 07.03.2022, passed in Execution Case No. 02/2015.
