According to him, due to the presence of the aforesaid hoardings and other boards, the entire view of his shop building is blocked, which adversely affects his business. It is stated that the representations made to the authorities for removal of the hoardings and flux boards have not evoked any response and, therefore, this writ petition is filed. 2.

Since the issue raised in the writ petition is similar to the one dealt with in Ext.P3 judgment, I do not think it necessary issue notice to the third respondent. 5.
