A Supreme Court bench comprising Justice V. Ramasubramanian and Justice Hrishikesh Roy held a special sitting on Saturday to hear a petition challenging the interim order of Calcutta High Court to demolish a building. The petition filed through Advocate-on-Record, Mr. Kush Chaturvedi was heard through Video-Conferencing. The Judges appeared from their chambers. Senior Advocate Siddharth Dave appeared for the petitioners.
The Bench issued notice in the matter and made it returnable in 4 weeks. The notice was received by the Advocate-on-Record, Mr. Soumya Dutta on behalf of Respondent No. 1 and his wife.
Noting that the interim order to demolish had been passed in a contempt petition without adjudging the guilt of the parties, the Bench thought it fit to stay the order of the High Court. It asked the Court master to send the order to the concerned authorities by email within 15 minutes. The Court staff assured the Bench that the order would be uploaded immediately.
