you have to approach the high court first because under article 226 the power is much wider than 32, i would recommend you to file mandamus writ before High Court rather than Supreme, even as a orocedural practice we go High court.

Hello sir. I have perused your query. You can move the High Court under iArticle 226 to get the relief sought by you. The wide discretion given to the court under the aforementioned provision grants them the power to make any such order for demolition. Please feel free to reach out to me in case you wish to discuss the matter in more detail.

Yes you can file but for that you need to have really strong evidence so that it can be presented properly and will be accepted in court. Otherwise it can be reverted back with high cost by the high court.
