Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: Bombay high court on Monday criticised Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar municipal corporation for demolishing properties linked to AIMIM corporator Mateen Patel and resident Hanif Khan, calling the action arbitrary and a violation of Supreme Court and high court guidelines,reports Mohammed Akhef.”Constructing a house is not an easy task. Everybody cannot afford to build a house like you and me. Don’t allow bulldozer culture to enter Maharashtra. This is not UP or Bihar,” observed a division bench led by Justice Siddheshwar Thombre.The HC noted that mandatory safeguards – including a 15-day notice period prescribed by the SC – were not followed for the May 13 demolition drive.
