Procedure to file writ petition against illegal construction by neighbour
25-Jul-2024 (In Civil Law)
My neighbour in front of my plot has done illegal construction in his plot with a view to reduce the value of my property And cunningly acquire that land for a very low price. I am unable to sell my property because of the blocks created by him. Can I file a writ complaint against neighbour for illegal construction? Please advise what I should do
Hai.
a writ can be filed before honble high court. But since its a completed one the risks are high. Any how it needs a local inspection n i think its time to meet your lawyer. Get a lawyer particularly civil lawyer f ur jurisdiction. Also the illegal construction defenition is to be put into physical clarification regarding how it went illegal n to wat extent.
hope am upto ur query

Illegal construction can be prevented by filing a complaint before the local body which has given building permit. You must show the violations in building rules in the construction and can seek stoppage of construction. The authority will inspect the premises and is empowered to take action including direction to remove the illegal construction. Writ petitions seeking mandamus directing the local authority to take action in your complaint can also be filed.

If the construction is illegal, then first give a complaint to local bodies to make an enquiry whether your neighbor has violated KMBR, or then file a suit for demolition of illegal construction. Revert if you still have more doubt.

If the construction carried out by your neighbour is illegal, you can approach the concerned Local Self Government Institution (Municipality/Panchayat/Corporation) by submitting a representation highlighting the illegalities committed by him and request the authority to stop the illegal construction carried out by your neighbour by issuing a stop memo and also to demolish the illegal construction. After submitting the said request, you can approach the High Court by filing writ petition with a prayer to direct the LSGD concerned to take action against the illegal construction and to demolish the same.
