ORDER : S.M.SUBRAMANIAM, J. The order of rejection passed by the Government vide letter dated 01.04.2025 under Section 80-A of the Town and Country Planning Act is sought to be assailed in the present writ proceedings. 2. It is not in dispute that the authorities identified unauthorised construction in the subject property. Enforcement actions were initiated. The writ petitioner is a tenant. The owner of the premises Smt.Kasturi also filed a revision petition under Section 80-A of the Tamil Nadu Town and Country Planning Act before the Government and the said revision petition was rejected along with the revision petition filed by the writ petitioner by way of a common order, which is impugned in the present writ proceedings. 3. Since the subject building was found to be unauthorisedly constructed in violation of the building plan permission and the enforcement actions have already been completed by the authorities, this Court is not inclined to entertain the writ petition. That apart, the revision petition under Section 80-A of the Act was rejected. 3. Mr.D.S.Raja Sekaran, learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner/tenant will vacate the premises and some time may be granted. 4. In view of the said submission, the petitioner is directed to vacate the premises on or before the June 10, 2025. In the event of failure the respondent authorities are directed to conclude the enforcement actions and demolish the unauthorised constructions without granting any further time to the occupants. The entire exercise of completion of enforcement action is directed to be concluded within a period of six (6) weeks from 10th June 2025. 5. With the above directions, the Writ Petition stands dismissed. No costs. Consequently, the connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
