ORDER
The present petition has been filed seeking direction as against the 2nd respondent to provide adequate police protection to the life and limb of the petitioner.
2. According to the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner, the third respondent, who is running a school, has been regularly threatening the petitioner and her husband and pressurising them to vacate the building, despite not being its owner. It is further alleged that the third respondent claims to have entered into an agreement with the owner of the building and she is attempting to evict the petitioner without following the due process of law.
3. The learned counsel further submits that, on every occasion when the third respondent has threatened the petitioner and her husband, complaints have been lodged. However, the police officials have not, so far, summoned the third respondent for an enquiry. Hence, the present petition has been filed.
