He submits that the no Official from the KMC has ever approached the land or made any attempt to demolish the building or to evict any person from this building. Learned advocate appearing for the respondent no.5 submits that the Port Trust informs him that the petitioner is an unauthorized occupant

In view thereof, no further order needs to be passed in this writ petition. Accordingly, the same is dismissed. However, if the petitioner is advised or so desires, the petitioner can take appropriate steps against the Port Trust authorities, in accordance with law.
