(1.) R. P. Misra, J. Heard Sri Vibhav Bhushan Upadhyay, learned Senior Counsel assisted by Sri S. F. A. Naqvi, learned Counsel for the petitioners, Sri L. P. Tiwari, learned Standing Counsel for the respondents and Sri Prem Chandra, learned Counsel for Nagar Nigam, Moradabad (in Civil Misc. Writ Petition No. 30982 of 2003 ).
(2.) AT the very outset this Court is constrained to mention that it is very surprising and shocking that in spite of the fact that it is admitted between the parties that the building in question is more than hundred years old and is in dilapidated condition, the respondents are not vacating the same, despite orders passed by the Prescribed Authority which have been affirmed by this Court.
(3.) AGAINST both the aforesaid orders dated 11-1-1994, the respondents filed two appeals, which were numbered as Appeal Nos. 3 and 4 of 1994 and were dismissed by order dated 12-5-1998 passed by IX Additional District Judge, Moradabad.
