¶2The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner, in response to the impugned notice, submitted all the documents to establish his rights. However, no final order has been passed. Thus, the present Writ Petition came to be instituted.

¶3The learned Standing Counsel appearing for Coimbatore Corporation would oppose by stating that the petitioner was identified as an encroacher in the public road.

¶4The petitioner states that he has already submitted his explanations along with the documents in response to the impugned notice dated
