HC seeks response from Punjab Govt on implementation of SC guidelines against bulldozer action latest news: The Punjab & Haryana High Court today sought a response from the Punjab Government and other authorities on a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) filed seeking the implementation of guidelines issued by the Supreme Court against bulldozer action and provisions of NDPS Act, following the reported demolition drive by the Punjab Police of drug peddler's property.

According to a newspaper report published on February 28, the Punjab Police have been razing the properties of alleged drug suppliers in their latest measure against drugs. Last week, the Ludhiana city police said they demolished illegal constructions linked to two drug peddlers and have identified 78 more such properties that will be razed.

HC issued a notice to the Punjab Government, Punjab's Secretary of Transport Department, Commissioner of Ludhiana Police, Zonal Director of National Control Bureau, Chandigarh.

Last year in November, sending a strong message against the trend of "bulldozer justice", the Supreme Court held that the executive cannot demolish the houses/properties of persons only on the ground that they are accused or convicted of a crime.
