Case Summary: CPAN 223/2026 A contempt application was filed by Shib Kumar Bhakat against Soumen Bhakat for non-compliance with the Court's November 24, 2025 order directing municipal authorities to conclude demolition proceedings regarding illegal construction. The Court found that while the Chairman passed an order on January 22, 2026, this did not constitute proper conclusion of proceedings as the Chairman lacks authority under Section 218 of the West Bengal Municipal Act, 1993. The Court issued a rule of contempt against Soumen Bhakat (Board member) and adjourned the matter to September 25, 2026 for further hearing. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
