structures. The Petitioner by this PIL is seeking demolition of those structures constructed by the illegal hawkers, who do not have any permission to carry out hawking. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the Corporation has invited our attention to letter dated 06.11.2013 written by the Assistant Commissioner, N-Ward wherein it is noted that after the order dated 09.09.2013 passed by the Apex Court, the Corporation has taken action and has removed the unauthorized structures of the hawkers. Plain reading of this letter does indicate that action is taken against hawkers and the structures have been demolished, as mentioned in the said letter.
3 In view of this letter, it is obvious that nothing survives in this petition and, therefore, the petitioner is not keen in pursuing this PIL. The PIL is, therefore, disposed of.
4 In view of the disposal of the PIL, Notice of Motion No. 556 of 2015 does not survive and the same is also disposed of accordingly.
