PIL in SC against Durga’s suspension New Delhi, August 6 The petitioner, advocate ML Sharma, contended that the UP government had no right to take any action against the IAS officer for the alleged demolition as she was only implementing an apex court directive to the authorities across the country to prevent unauthorised construction of any shrine encroaching upon roads, parks or other public places. He pointed out that the SC had passed the order on September 29, 2009, making it clear that henceforth no unauthorised construction “shall be carried out or permitted in the name of temple, church, mosque or gurdwara etc” on any public place. The PIL contended that the district magistrate had acknowledged that Nagpal “was only doing her job as the area’s sub-divisional magistrate.” It pleaded for a stay on the state government’s orders against the accused officer.
