NSUI and Youth Congress workers went to Tabiyar to make a representation. A scuffle followed. An application has been submitted with Navrangpura police,” he said.Tabiyar stated, “The applicant had submitted a representation regarding action to be taken against paying guest facilities operating from several locations in Navrangpura in the West Zone. The estate department conducted a site inspection and completed the procedure for issuing notices as per law. After the time specified in these notices expires, implementation takes time. On Thursday evening, the applicant came to the zonal office and questioned why the PGs were not being sealed within this timeframe. Making aggressive arguments, they called other individuals on the phone to assemble at the office, slammed files on the table, and started issuing threats. As they made allegations, they were asked to leave the office, and police were informed. This applicant has threatened AMC staff members earlier as well.”
