SRINAGAR, Jan 2: The Jammu and Kashmir High Court today appointed a Commissioner who will visit the under construction house of Minister for Consumer Affairs and Public Distribution, Choudhry Mohammad Ramzan, and report to the court about the existing ground position.
A Single Bench of the High Court comprising Justice M H Attar today appointed the Registrar Judicial of the High Court, Aijaz Ahmad Mir, as Commissioner to visit the house of the Minister and report to the court about the status of constructed house and encroachments made.
Earlier, the court had directed the Minister not to utilize the green strip of land that adjoins his under construction house at Humhama in Srinagar outskirts.
Court had directed the owner of the house that present status of the property “shall be maintained and shall remain undisturbed till further orders from the court”.
The CAPD Minister is building a multi-storey house on a land at Frineds Colony at Humhama which is owned by his son, but a resident Dr Ghulam Nabi Yatoo filed a petition in the court against him for “managing permission from Srinagar Municipal Corporation to build a two-storey residential house in clear violation of the sanctioned plan at the site and grabbing public land and green strip reserved for beautification of the colony, which is detrimental to rights and interests of its inhabitants”.
