Building violations: Madurai Corporation to move SC
The Madurai Corporation has decided to approach the Supreme Court and file cases against private buildings which have been constructed in complete violation of norms. Since some individuals whose buildings were sealed in the last few months have gone to the High Court and won the case, the Corporation authorities are now readying to move the Supreme Court on the issue.
Official sources said on Sunday that the Corporation Commissioner R.Nanthagopal has given concurrence to the town planning wing and legal team to pursue the building violation cases in Supreme Court.
As a first instance, the civic body is taking up the 11-storeyed hotel that is being built near the A.V.Bridge (Vaigai Vadakarai) issue to Supreme Court soon.
