Orders
Summary: The Calcutta High Court dismissed the writ petition filed by Ashok Kumar Ghosh against the State of West Bengal and private respondents. The petitioner had sought police intervention to prevent nuisance from a toilet constructed by co-owners on adjacent premises. The court held that police authority is not the appropriate forum for such disputes and directed the petitioner to approach Panchayat authorities instead, as construction and land use matters fall within their jurisdiction. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
