MP High Court Hears Bhopal BMC Sealing Drive Cases, No Stay Orders Vacated
The Madhya Pradesh High Court has heard over 90 petitions in two days regarding the Bhopal Municipal Corporation's (BMC) sealing and demolition drive, but none of the interim stay orders challenged by the BMC have been vacated. Hearings on the remaining cases are scheduled for September 8 and 11. The court directed the BMC to examine petitioners' replies carefully and allowed existing interim relief to continue. The BMC's sealing drive targets unauthorized commercial activities near Kaliyasot, Upper Lake, and the 10 Number area, with a final outcome expected before the corporation submits its report to the Supreme Court on September 12.
