Dear Sirs,
This is reference to the various orders by the Supreme Court on the matter of illegal hawkers, in particular, the latest one as enclosed below for your ready and immediate reference.
>>>
You are also fully aware of the original orders on Non - Hawking Zones as stated in "the Restrictions and Conditions by which the hawkers will do their business laid down for Non - Hawking Zones" in the December 9, 2003 Order. They are as follows:
" [3] There should be no hawking within 100 metres from any place of worship, holy shrine, educational institutions and hospitals or within 150 metres from any municipal
or other markets or from any railway station. There should be no hawking on foot - bridges and over bridges. Further certain areas may be permitted to be kept free of hawkers for security reasons. However outside places of worship hawkers can be
permitted to sell items required by the devotees for offering to the deity or for placing in the place of worship e.g. flowers, sandalwood, candles, agarbattis, coconuts etc."
" [9] No hawking will be permitted on any street which is less than 8 metres in width. Further the hawkers also have to comply with Development Control Rules thus there can be no hawking in areas which are exclusively residential and where trading and
commercial activity is prohibited. Thus hawking cannot be permitted on roads and pavements which do not have a shopping line;"
>>>
The latest order is not only specific, explicit, but clear and non ambiguous, that illegal hawkers have no opportunity to have any stay on their activities until the new hawking policy may be finalised.
Effective and permanent action has to be taken as per the latest orders, which you are well aware.
You are therefore kindly advised to take immediate action on the same in K Ward, at the following places, inclusive, but not exhaustive
01 In and around Andheri Station area, and on the foot over bridges connecting West and East, on the roads immediately outside, S V Road, which are all within 150 metres of the station, etc
02 In and around Vile Parle Station area, and on the foot over bridges connecting West and East, on the roads imediately outside, S V Road, which are all within 150 metres of the station, etc
In any case, you are aware, entire Vile Parle West is a declared non hawking zone
03 Junction of MM Chowk, SV Raod, Lallubhai Road, illegal food stalls, and others, occupy the corners, dirty the place, wash utensils on the road, etc.
04 Illegal food and other stalls near and around NMMIS, Mithibai, Bhaidas, etc., Juhu shopping complex on VL MEHTA Road
05 Illegal stalls on both sides of SV Road and footpath from Gokhale Bridge towards South and Amboli naka towards North
06 Illegal stalls on both sides of Church Road, Seven Bungalows
07 Illegal stalls, and illegal shop extensions on Irla Road, of hawkers and shops
08 Illegal food and other stalls on DJ Marg, Vile Parle, and in various inner roads of Vile Parle West such as BP Vashi Road, etc
09 Illegal food and other stalls on both sides of SV Road and Link Road, towards Jogeshwari and northern limit of K West, etc
All the above, apart from the illegality, cause great traffic obstacles, health hazards, garbage nuisance, etc
Your office is called upon to immediately and effectively, and permanently, clear the said encroachments and etc., from the above areas, apart from the numbers of all other places not mentioned, where such illegal hawkers are proliferating.
The area below, near and around Gokhale flyover bridge, is in filthy, dirty, dark, unhygienic condition since years.
Superficial assurances have been given by your office to specific representations by LAPARA ALM, and others, highlighted in the media also any number of times, but this place remains in abysmal condition.
Kindly clean the place immediately.
Kindly also relocate the solid waste, garbage Clean Up ! chowkie, located on South West end of railway platform, which creates foul smell, due to collection of MCGM garbage compactors and MCGM dumpers, affecting thousands of residents and passengers going to and returning from Andheri West station.
This also creates totally unacceptable traffic jams, and endagers pedestrians due to haphazrd movement of such vehicles.
Also, huge numbers unauthorised water tankers are randomly and illegally parked near there due to two MCGM valves allowed for MCGM water tankers.
All this creates innumerable problems for all residents and passengers, pedestrians, etc., not to mention that it give an impression that K West is under drought conditions even after a very good Monsoon season 2010.
Kindly relocate this filling point.
You kind attention is also drawn to the sweeping, cleaning, collection, of solid waste in Ward K West area which is not being done effectively, nor efficiently.
The same should be done with proper vigour and especially after mid night, to take care of the enormous litter generated by padyatris going to Shri Siddhi Vinayak who do not care about the environment nor the simple credo
Svachchtha Hee Vidhaatha Hai
- Aur Jo Nahin Samajhtha
- Tho Padhe Likhe Phir Bhi Anadi
- Bahar Se Aayaa Ek Khiladi
- Clean Up Our Land
Your immediate and positive action in this will be appreciated.
Thanqx.

This Court vide order dated 9.12.2003 and 30.7.2004
has appointed Three Members Committees for Mumbai City Eastern Suburbs and Western Suburbs, each for considering the suggestions and objections invited from the public for finalization of Hawking and Non-Hawking zones.
The required expenditure for the functioning of those Committees is borne by the Municipal Corporation. It is brought to our notice that the Corporation had already spent an amount of Rs.60,50,966/- toward the remuneration of the Chairmen, their mobile bills, rental car charges etc. That apart the Corporation had also provided to the said Committees office premises, clerk, steno/typist, peon, landline telephone, computers etc. for which separate expenditure has been incurred by the Corporation. There is no dispute that finalization of Hawking and Non- Hawking Zones has already been done. This Court vide its Order dated 12.2.2007 directed the State Government to formulate the Scheme for hawkers based on National Urban Hawkers Policy which is stated to have been formulated by the State Government. In such view of the
matter, no useful purpose will be served by continuing with the Three Members Committees constituted by earlier orders of this Court.
In the circumstances, we order for the discontinuance of the Three Members Committees forthwith subject to the following:
1. Upon dissolution of the Committees the function of the Committees with regard to deciding applications in respect of designating roads/streets as hawking zones/non-hawking zones will not be assigned to any authority.
2. The Municipal Corporation accepts the suggestion of Citispace and agrees with the directions given in para 14(15) of the judgment dated 9.12.2003 to be substituted by the following:-
"Complaints in respect of hawkers, encroachers and unauthorised parkings by shop owners shall be brought to the notice of the concerned Ward Officer who is an Assistant Municipal Commissioner (AMC). The Ward Officer concerned shall take immediate steps to respond to the complaint and remove the hawker, encroacher and unauthorised parkings by shop owners where he if found to be in a non-hawking zone/area. In case the Ward Officer takes no action, a written complaint may be filed by the citizen to his immediate superior, the Deputy Municipal Commissioner (DMC) of the zone. The DMC shall look into the complaint

In case the Ward Officer takes no action, a written complaint may be filed by the citizen to his immediate superior, the Deputy Municipal Commissioner (DMC) of the zone. The DMC shall look into the complaint
And if found correct he will with the help of the police remove the hawkers,
encroachers and unauthorised parkings by shop owners. The Officer-in-Charge of the police station concerned is directed to give prompt and immediate assistance to the DMC. In the event of the DMC findings the complaint to be correct, he shall so record an adverse remark in respect of the failure of the Ward Officer to perform his duty will be entered in the Confidential Report of the Ward Officer concerned. If more than 3 such entries are found in the record of
encroachers and unauthorised parkings by shop owners. The Officer-in-Charge of the police station concerned is directed to give prompt and immediate assistance to the DMC. In the event of the DMC findings the complaint to be correct, he shall so record an adverse remark in respect of the failure of the Ward Officer to perform his duty will be entered in the Confidential Report of the Ward Officer concerned. If more than 3 such entries are found in the record of
an officer, it would be a ground for withholding promotion. If more than 6 such entries are found in the record of an officer, it shall be a ground for
termination of service."
3. The Municipal Corporation agrees that the functions of issuing licences to hawkers as contemplated in the judgment dated 9.12.2003 read with the judgment dated 12.2.2007 will be discharged by a Senior Officer of the Municipal
