In the year 1995, without affording a hearing to the petitioner, respondent/MCD allotted to him an alternate vending site at Khayala Village near Tilak Nagar. However, as the new site was found unsuitable by the petitioner, he continued to vend from his old site. Further, as per the petitioner, in the year 2000, respondent/MCD started issuing him receipts of tehbazaari fees showing that he was vending from two other sites, namely Raghubir Nagar and Tilak Bazaar. The petitioner contends that on inspection of both the sites, he found them unsuitable for vending and continued vending from his old site in front of Vishal Cinema.
