File an application under section 133 crpc before concerned SDM cum Collector requesting removal of these structures
Illegal encroachment by street vendors is a menace in India . In my home city most of the pavements are encroached. First, they start with vegetable selling then erect semi permanent structures selling shakes and finally all illegal stuff. I have some cursory knowledge of law. Under which laws can I file complaint against these vendors (selling food items)? As per my knowledge they in direct violation of following laws. 1. Their khokhas are not registered under Shop Act. Who should I complaint to and what are penal provisions provided by law under Shop Act? 2. They don’t have any permission to sell consumable food items (Shakes, pakodas, Aloo Tikki) to general public. Can I report this to CMO ? what are penal provisions under law? Since civil authorities have miserably failed, I want to approach Court in case civil authorities don’t pay any heed to my request. Please enlighten me legal recourse against civil authorities if they don’t act on my complaint.

You need licence from muncipal corporation to sell food articles
3) if no action is taken by muncipal corporation file writ in HC for demolition of unauthorised construction
Hello,
Write representation to municipal authorities for removal of such encroachment and as and when they do not move, directly file a writ petition in the HC under article 226 of the Constitution of India.
Let me know if I can be of some help.
