Respected Sir,

Sub: Removal of illegal/unauthorised speed breakers erected in Gali No.8
(heading towards nala side) Vishwas Nagar, 60ft. road, Delhi-32

1. That on 17.01.2018 while coming to Karkardooma Court via gali no.8, I noticed that there are two speed breakers which are very high/dangerous. Due to these many accidents have been reported to have occurred. Even on 18.1.2018 my scooter slipped due to the speed breakers as a result I received injury. These all are unauthorized and illegal. When I enquired from the residents about constructing those speed breakers they told that MCD officials have constructed these speed breakers.

2. That the Hon ble High Court in WP(C) No. 104/2015 titled GURU HANUMAN SOCIETY OF INDIA versus GOVT. OF NCT OF DELHI & ORS had asked the road owning agencies to remove all unauthorized speed breakers. In an August 2017 order the Delhi High Court gave four weeks time to road owning agencies in the national capital to remove all speed breakers that were not approved by traffic police and that did not conform the prescribed norms. It also warned that in case of non compliance it would be constrained to take coercive action against those responsible.

At the first instance instead of filing an application before High Court in the above matter, firstly I am requesting that the above speed breaker may be removed immediately, preferably within one week from today, in order to ensure the safety of the passersby. If the action is not taken I will be constrained to move Delhi High Court to raise pleas in this regard at your costs & risk for which you will be entirely responsible for the same.

Yours faithfully,

(Vishnu Kumar Mittal)
