A DIVISION bench of the high court here on Friday directed the Lucknow district magistrate and the SSP to get the alleged unauthorised construction of a mosque being carried out on Gokhle Marg here stayed forthwith.

The bench comprising Justices UK Dhaon and Rakesh Sharma passed the above orders on a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) filed earlier by the Nishatganj Residents Welfare Association through advocate BK Singh. On being told that the unauthorised construction of the mosque was still being continued, the bench sought a reply from the LDA counsel, who informed the court that the LDA had already passed orders under Section 27 and 28 of the UP Urban Planning and Development Act for stopping and demolishing the unauthorised construction. The order, however, could not be implemented due to lack of co-operation from the district administration, it was said.

A Day at Camp Democracy

But my talk goes off well. I do a powerpoint presentation on the Progressive activist's hero's journey. When it's done, I get a lot of thank you's

One thing I did was ask, "who are your heroes-- living people?"

I'd love to hear from you who your hero is. I'll be posting this report on Camp Democracy as an article, so please, respond to the article with a comment, saying who your progressive hero is and why.

Though the folks at Camp Democracy had offered me free lodging, I decided to head home a little after seven. Between waiting for and catching trains, I got home about half past midnight. it was well worth the trip. I've met people who travelled from Michigan, upstate New York, Washington state, virginia, from all over the place. Make the time.
