The Delhi High Court has asked the Municipal Corporation of Delhi to file a status report on a petition complaining of "inaction' by the authorities in preventing encroachment on a public road at Mainwali Nagar by a local municipal councillor. Justice Pradeep Nandrajog also issued notices to the Councillor Tarsem Bansal on the complaint and posted the matter for further hearing to April 26. The notices were issued on a petition filed by a resident Sunil Kapoor through counsel Namita Roy complaining that the municipal councillor, who had a house in Mainawali Nagar, had "illegally' constructed a three-storey structure in the area by violating all building bye-laws and norms, besides encroaching on the public road.
