SUNIL KUMAR YADAV Vs. DEPUTY COMMISSIONER
27.08.2025
Lawyers are abstaining from work today.
Present: Plaintiff in person.
Mr. Vivek Sharma, Sanitary Inspector, on behalf of the
defendant no. 1 / MCD in person.
It is informed by the plaintiff that a fresh application has
already been made to the MCD on 14.08.2025. The same is confirmed
by the official present. The officer is enquired as to the outer time
limit under which such application is liable to be decided one way or
the other and the provisions under which the MCD is required to act.
He is unaware of the same. It cannot be as such that a statutory
authority such as MCD can sit over applications indefinitely. The
same is totally against the notion of due process.
In view of the above, MCD is directed to file before the
Court a report with regards the above and as to whether the
application filed by the plaintiff has been decided or not, together with
reasons in either scenario. It is stated by the plaintiff that the Durga
Pooja rituals are slated to commence from 22.09.2025 and as such
therefore, the MCD may take decision in time accordingly so that the
prayers sought vide the present suit do not by themselves become
infructuous. Such timeline has been apprised to the official present
and as such therefore, it is expected out of the MCD to comply with
Court directions for NDOH without fail. Official present is bound
down for NDOH.
Re-list on 03.09.2025.
