Information solicited:

3.Plese inform further steps that can be taken as per law by the authorities.

4.Please inform the name of the superior officer, designation, mobile no, and address with whom a complaint can be made for inaction of lower levels.

5.Please inform the name of the Inspector/officer that failed to notice such initial stages of stopping the construction, with full knowledge that such activity is unauthorised, and the action authorities are going to take against him for his negligene.

What was the reason that you complained to the Municipality, was it because the construction caused or likely to cause loss or inconvenience to you or encroached upon your own rights? Or did you just complain as a law conscious citizen? Municipal laws are intended to get property tax or to serve public interest. Generally they are lethargic and corrupt. Find out the actual situation through RTI. If they do not give correct and complete information or you suspect the information, go on appeal and second appeal if necessary. But if the information is correct first complain to the higher authorities in the Municipality itself. If still no action is taken go to court. Anyway it is an uphill task for you.
