Pertinently the said matter of illegal constructions in and around city was mentioned in a press conference of Chief Secretary, Iqbal Khandey, on Monday and he had promised the government will look into the matter.
As per eyewitnesses, the shopkeepers, who were resorting to illegal constructions blocked the Residency Road in protest of the demolition for some time.
