C.    For that as the building no. _____ is sagging due to settlement of footing, the weight on columns of _____ has lost the stability resulting into various cracks in various columns and beams.

D.    For that due to these cracks, the plaster of walls in building      no._____ has been damaged in adjacent horizontal and vertical grid and various other places.

E.     For that due to the water curing of walls of building no. _____, the wall paint of building no. _____ has been damaged and lot of seepage has started occurring on the adjacent horizontal and vertical grid walls of Building No._____, and it needs to be repainted.

F.     For that the diabetic mother of Petitioner No.2 who is residing on the third floor of _____ has been adversely affected due to the unauthorized construction carried out at _____. The mother of Petitioner No.2 is now bereft of access to her easementary right of passage of light or air or ventilation which have severely affected her health.

G.    For that the unauthorized and illegal construction at _____ coupled with illegal extensions and protruding parapets have already caused and may further cause theft/burglary in the neighborhood more specifically at _____ as the illegal extensions provide easy access to thieves and other bad social elements in the neighboring building.

H.    For that the Respondent No.’s 1 to 6 despite being in receipt of the letters dated ______, ______, _____ and  ______ have willfully chosen not to impede the unauthorized and illegal construction being carried out at _____ against the approved building plans / building bye-laws.

I.       For that the Petitioners apprehend that the unauthorized and illegal construction being carried out by the Respondent No.’s 7 to 9 is in gross violation of the Delhi Municipal Corporation Act, 1957 and no permission has been granted under Section 334 of the said Act.

J.       For that the Petitioners respectfully state that stern action is required to be taken against unauthorized constructions and misuse as these activities have gone on unabated, without any let or hindrance and all the warnings have fallen on deaf ears without any effect on the Respondent No.’s 7 to 9.

L.     For that the principle of neighbor proximity is also applicable in the present case, as the Respondent No.’s 1 to 6 have miserably failed in complying with their statutory duties in restraining Respondent No.’s 7 to 9 from carrying out unauthorized and illegal constructions.

4.      That the Writ Petitioners herein have not filed any other similar Petition/Suit in the Supreme Court of India or before this Hon’ble Court or any other Court of Law assailing the unauthorized and illegal construction being carried out by the Respondent No.’s 7 to 9 at the premises bearing No. ________________.
