JUDGMENT : 1. UPON hearing counsel the Court made the following 2. We see no illegality in the respondents taking steps to demolish the Mandir if it is constructed unauthorisedly and without building plans being passed. 3. We see no justification whatsoever for the High Court at Ranchi to have given any permission with regard to the construction of any wall or with regard to the diversion of drain, etc., referred to in the letter dated 1st February, 1993. Usurpation of public property in the name of religion and construction of religious places without permission from the Municipal Authorities cannot be permitted. The modus operandi of grabbing public land erecting buildings illegally primarily for the benefit of the perpetuator has to come down with a heavy hand. We see no merit in this petition and the same is, accordingly, dismissed. 4. We expect all the State Governments to take appropriate action in preventing such encroachments and illegalities wherever they come up. Copy of the order be sent to all the Chief Secretaries.
