Calcutta High Court Stays Amtala Demolition After Structure Razed on Sunday

Judicial intervention arrived hours after district authorities leveled Abhishek Banerjee’s constituency office, establishing a procedural pause rather than a ruling on property rights.

The Calcutta High Court issued an interim stay on Sunday halting further demolition activity at the Amtala constituency office of Trinamool Congress MP Abhishek Banerjee, but the order arrived only after district authorities had already razed the structure. Justice Raja Basu Chowdhury directed all parties to maintain the status quo pending further review, a procedural brake applied to a physical fait accompli. The judicial intervention followed an urgent petition filed by Leaps and Bounds, the company that holds title to the property, which sought court protection against what it described as illegal administrative action [1][3].
