(ORAL) The prayer made in the PIL is for removal of the alleged encroachments as well as unauthorized constructions in front of shops and the space meant for public passage in Dana Mandi, Phillaur. Reading the averments made in the writ petition we find that the Municipal Council, Phillaur had issued notices to the alleged encroachers on 11.05.2010 and 27.09.2010. Such notices, it is claimed, were issued after demarcation was carried out by the revenue authorities. According to the petitioner, he had served a legal notice also, the response to which indicates that a meeting to decide on the matter was scheduled to be held in November, 2010. As no action has been initiated this PIL has been filed. CWP No. 6082 of 2011 2 The materials on record having indicated that notices have been issued to the alleged encroachers on 11.05.2010 and 27.09.2010 and furthermore the Municipal Council, Phillaur is contemplating necessary action in the matter, instead of entertaining this PIL, we are of the view that the same should be disposed of with a direction to the Municipal Council, Phillaur to finalize the notices issued to the alleged encroachers on 11.05.2010 and 27.09.2010. This will be done within a period of two months from the date of receipt of this order or a certified copy thereof. PIL shall stand disposed of in the above terms.
