Illegal factory operating in residential area

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 24 June 2021 This query is : Resolved 
Hello respected members

There is a feed factory operating at the back of my house, this is an residential area . I have filed complaints against this in august 2020 to municipal commissnr ofce, then i again sent reminder in october 2020, but of no use, Then i filed complaint to Deputy of area , which resulted in an police enquiry .
Police have recorded statements of few people who are not party to this. A house has 4 sides one side being the road or streeet , in this case the plots on the right and left side of this plot are rented , the families living their have no problem as they are also working in some other units of the same factory owner, the family living just in front of this factory is on other side of road is also against this factory but police has not recorded their statement and hence by selectively recording the statement the police has dismissed my complaint.
i have also complaint against this factory in CM window which is pending since january 2021.what can i do now? please guide me,

The posting do not highlight any actionable issue, other than your dislike for the unit.

Yes. No legal issue involved in the query. And you have already put a complaint in CM window. So it will be sent to the concerned and call for their remarks. It will take a lot of time.

In number of cities,municipal corporation has banned to run factories and commercial activities in residential areas.File W.P.before H.C and Pray to give directions to municipal corporation to act and do necessary action to remove such activities from residential area.

The Municipal authorities have chosen to not to give any reply to your complaint made last year in this regard hence you had this matter reported to the police, whereas the police also made an eyewash inquiry and closed the complaint on false information.
Therefore you may have to approach high court with a writ petition seeking direction to the Municipal authorities or the local civic body to initiate necessary action to close the industry functioning in the residential area causing nuisance and disturbance to the residents of the area including health hazards and noise pollution etc.
Before that you may obtain information about the permission granted to run this factory in the residential area through RTI act, in order to strengthen your case.

I agree with experts, collect all evidences and move to High Court in writ jurisdiction through a local prudent lawyer.
