Calcutta High Court questions State over use of bulldozer by private parties to dispossess shop owners.

Court: what is happening? They used JCB…if it is found that they are squatter, proceedings should be initiated. But private parties cannot take law into their own hands after change of regime…police became mute spectators

AAG tells court that petitioners were reinstated by the authorities.

Court: another case came to me where a big hole was dug outside a shop, by the landowner

AAG: wrong is undone

Court: for that the court is not needed to intervene

AAG: that is the majesty of our courts

Court: he was dispossessed without any order from any authority
