The petition sought the dismissal of the notice issued by the BMC after carrying out an inspection on October 24 last yea for not obtaining the required permission for the conversion. A few days ago, a junior engineer of K-West ward registered a complaint against Sonu and his wife Sonali Sood, claiming that the ‘unauthorized construction’ continued to be carried out even after the notice.

Sonu Sood had approached a civil court after getting the notice last week, but did not get relief, after which he approached the high court. 

Sonu Sood, known for work in hits like Dabangg, Simmba and more, is currently in the news for his charitable initiatives.
