Exhibits P1 to P5 are notices issued to the petitioners informing that they should remove the unauthorised constructions projecting into purambokku land within three days of receipt of the notices. If they have made any additional constructions in the purambokku land, PWD is entitled to remove the same. The parties challenged only the notices issued. If they have not made any unauthorised constructions in the purambokku land, it is for them to appraise the PWD authorities regarding the same. But we see no reason to interfere with the notices issued. Learned counsel for appellants submits that they want some reasonable time to remove the alleged unauthorised constructions as festival is going on. In the facts and circumstances of the case, we grant two weeks' time from today for removal of the unauthorised constructions. The Writ Appeal is disposed of as stated above.
