Respected experts,
I have filed a complaint under section 278 of IPC for making the environment noxious to health, against the Welfare Housing Association member who happens to be Nagarsevak, for directing the sweeper of our colony to keep the dustbins with wastes near the gates of our building. I stay on the 1st floor and so face more problem due to the stench from the dustbins and the waste.
Since no one from our building was ready to speak against the Nagarsevak I filed the complaint with police.
The police took the complaint and directed us to give a copy to Commissioner of municipality to look into the issue. The Municipal commissioner said that he will send a letter to the Association.
However I doubt if an action would be initiated either by police or Municipal commissioner since the main person who directed that the dustbin be kept there is a Nagarsevak and influential.
1) What are the options available ?
2) How good it would be if I file a criminal case under section 278 of IPC and seek injunction ?
