    Case Summary: WP(C)/3126/2026 Mridul Dutta v. State of Assam & 3 Ors Mridul Dutta challenged a demolition notice dated 22.05.2026 issued by Sonari Municipal Board directing demolition of his two-storied RCC building within 30 days, allegedly for violating Section 177 of the Assam Municipal Act, 1956. Dutta claimed the building was assessed for taxation by the Board in 1998 and he has paid municipal taxes regularly since then. The Gauhati High Court suspended the demolition notice till the returnable date (24.07.2026), finding the notice potentially arbitrary given the building's prior assessment and regular tax payments. Case adjourned for substantive hearing. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
