the Municipal Corporation on 19th January, 2010 to the second respondent. The development permission has been challenged on several grounds. The main ground is that width of the lane from the property on which development is permitted which joins the main road is not even 3 to 4 feet. The contention it that there is no proper access to the plot in question in terms of the Development Control Regulations.
