Demanding right over the properties, she is making trouble. So the petitioner gave a representation seeking police protection on 08.12.2020. Since there is no action, this petition has been filed.

3.The learned Additional Public Prosecutor submitted that so far no representation has been received from the petitioner, seeking police protection. The representation copy, dated 08.12.2020, has been enclosed and perusal of the copy shows that no such request has been made for giving police protection.
