Govt trying to protect law-breakers

The government is shamelessly bent upon protecting the law-breakers who have been carrying out commercial activities from residential areas in violation of city's Master Plan and by-laws. It has gone to the extent of confrontation with the apex court. The traders and land encroachers are powerful - financially and politically and the public watches as they break laws one after another. Though the high court and Supreme Court have taken the toughest stand on the issue politicians feel that they are above everything.

The law-abiding citizens of this city and country need to evolve a strategy to counter the designs of people with such vested interests, lest the city turns into hell.
