There would be further direction upon the lady police personnel who would every alternate day for a period of four weeks visit the house and assess as to whether the present petitioners are subjected to any harassment or humiliation. Such arrangement would continue for a period of four weeks within which the petitioners would approach the appropriate authorities under the provisions of Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizen Act, 2007. In case the concerned tribunal passes any order, the police authorities would adhere and abide by the said order passed by the tribunal.

As prayed for, petitioners would approach the Officer-in-Charge, Garhbeta Police Station on 3rd December, 2024 when the Officer-in-Charge would act in accordance with directions passed above. With the aforesaid observations, WPA 16921 of 2024 is disposed of.
