Vide notice Annexure P-7, dated 02.09.2009, the petitioner was confronted with a fact that hoardings, hanging on the wall of DLF City Centre Mall, towards the road side, are promotional advertisements, which are contrary to the Chandigarh Advertisement Control Order, 1954.

Thereafter, the following order was passed by this Court on 10.09.2009: - Civil Writ Petition No.13955 of 2009 -2- “As both the parties are in agreement, let the site be inspected tomorrow at 11.00 a.m. to verify as to whether any signage board/advertisement has been put contrary to the approved plan Annexure P-1 or the Rules. On request, adjourned to 16.09.2009.” Counsel for the parties state that, in response to the order mentioned above, inspection was conducted in the premises of the petitioner on 11.09.2009. The respondents have indicated certain violations in the sign boards with respect to size and location of the boards, put up by the petitioner, at the site. Some other violations regarding glazing etc. have also been indicated. Counsel for the petitioner states that the petitioner shall remove all the violations indicated by the respondents at the time of inspection and shall bring the building and the boards etc. in consonance with the sanctioned plan Annexure P-1, in terms of Annexure P-2. He also states that the petitioner shall comply with the provisions of Chandigarh Advertisement Control Order, 1954, if already not complied with. To the prayer made, possibly no objection can be raised by counsel for the respondents. So far as contention of counsel for the petitioner that permission to display signages has already been granted vide Annexure P-1 and there is no necessity of further compliance with the Order mentioned above, is concerned, this Court is of the opinion that as and when the petitioner is confronted with the above said facts, the petitioner shall approach the authorities concerned for necessary relief. Subject to removal of violations, indicated by the respondents at the time of inspection, within a period of 2 months, Civil Writ Petition No.13955 of 2009 -3- proposed action against the petitioner shall remain suspended. After expiry of two months, from today, the authorities will inspect the site again, to verify as to whether the violations have been removed or not?
