which is in existence prior to 1991. The Respondent further objected to the site

inspection report as the said report is merely based on the surmises and conjectures and

survey plan has nowhere taken into consideration. The Respondent has produced the

relevant documents in support of his case to prove that the said structure is in existence

prior to 1991 such as the survey plan which depicts the said structure. Further form

the Complainant dint approach any Authority from 2013 to 2018 and all of sudden the

alteration done to the structure from the year 2013 till now, there is a temporary structure

and same is used to keep canoe as the Respondent is traditional fisherman and to prove so
