Can you challenge Local Authority on fines and violations?(example-BMC)
2 years ago
I was being fined for not wearing a mask by the BMC marshals on the beach. I protested and showed them an RTI appeal addressed to Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, which said it was not mandatory to wear a mask but it is advised to , and then he let me go without any fine. how can this be challenged ? How can the BMC impose fine on will?
A.Dear Sir,
You may approach the High Court and get appropriate orders against BMC and concerned staff members.

A.Dear Client,
They did not charged you with any fine but yes you can file a PIL. You can file a writ petition in High Court under Article 227 of issuing Writ to stop the public employee not to overstep their authority.
Thank You.
