If the defendant has admitted and taken on record by the court. Despite this, if it is unauthorised construction then court can also ordered to demolish it.

It is indeed regrettable that the Court Orders are toothless and the offenders do not have any fear to disobey them. Nothing happens in such cases. In our city also there are many such construction in spite of the caveat. Court does nothing and the offenders go Scott free. No fear of even court orders. There are many execution petitions pending action even after after non-bailable warrant. Police is also ineffective. How long one can stretch?

I have heard that there is punishment - attachment of property of defendant or civil imprisonment for which plaintiff has to deposit expenses. But I don't know the procedure. Plz guide me.

The procedure is lengthy and cumbersome. The party has to raise the Execution Petition after dishonour of the court order for payment. Again the whole procedure of 3 notices and then warrants will follow. Then the party will have to furnish details of moveble and immovable properties of the offender. The commissioners will be appointed by the appropriate authority and then auction may take place.
