36. In case of urgency order may be made ex parte
Feedback & supportIf in any case in which a Magistrate’s Court has jurisdiction to make a mandatory order, the Court is of opinion that the matter complained of will be injurious or dangerous to health or safety and the immediate work sought to be done will not cause any injury which cannot be compensated for by damages, the Court may, by an ex parte order, authorise the Director immediately to execute the work sought to be done.
Director
“Director” means the Director of Water Pollution Control and Drainage appointed under section 3 and includes a Deputy Director and an Assistant Director of Water Pollution Control and Drainage;
If the Director executes the work and the application for a mandatory order is subsequently refused, he shall pay the cost of the work and the damages, if any, sustained by any person thereby, but if the mandatory order is subsequently granted the Director may recover the cost of the work as if it had been executed by him in pursuance of the powers conferred by section 34.[35
