(ORAL) The petitioner seeks a direction to the Municipal Corporation, Jalandhar to remove the encroachments alleged to have been made by the shopkeepers on the main road in Sheikhan Bazar, Jalandhar City. In support of his plea, the petitioner relies upon certain photographs which, prima-facie, suggest that the shopkeepers have largely displayed their items/ goods on the public path, leaving hardly any space for the passersby. The petitioner's case is that he is also one of the shopkeepers in the same market under the name and style of M/S Prince Glass Corner and due to encroachments, he has also been put to lot of inconvenience in running his business activities.
