August 13, 2025

THE Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court on Tuesday directed the Tamil Nadu government to take steps to remove all illegal flex boards, hoardings and arches erected in public roads, passages and pedestrian pathways across the state.

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @ Madurai

A bench comprising justices SM Subramaniam and G Arul Murugan gave the direction on a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) petition filed by T Arularasan of Nagapattinam.

Arularasan stated that after a techie's death was caused by an illegal flex board in Chennai in 2019, the Madras High Court had directed the government to immediately remove all flex boards, arches, display boards, hoardings and placards, etc which were erected abutting highways, public streets and pedestrian pavements across the state.

But the order has been grossly violated by political parties and the government, Arularasan alleged. He requested the court to initiate action against all persons involved in the illegal erection of such structures forthwith and forbear their erection without permission in future.
