Versus

State of Punjab and others ....... Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJ MOHAN SINGH Present:- Ms. Navsangeet Sidhu, Advocate for the petitioner. RAJ MOHAN SINGH J. (ORAL) Petitioner has preferred this petition for the issuance of an appropriate writ, especially in the nature of mandamus, directing respondent nos.2 and 3 for taking strict action against respondent no.4, who has allegedly constructed a ramp in the public street by way of encroachment of public land. Petitioner has also prayed for removal of the alleged construction.

Earlier CWP No.1835 of 2022 was filed and the same was ordered to be dismissed as withdrawn with liberty to the petitioner to file a fresh petition with better particulars. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that precisely for the grievance in question, his legal notice dated 06.03.2022 is pending before respondent no.2. At this stage, the petitioner would be satisfied in case his legal notice is ordered to be decided by respondent no.2 in a time bound manner in accordance with law.
