It is needless to say that the respondents are bound to follow the due process of law before further proceeding with the demolition activity. In view of the same, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the respondents not to resort to the demolition activity relating to the subject matter of the Writ Petition unless they follow the due process of law. No costs. _________________ Justice P.S.Narayana Date : 23-8-2006 AM
