When cases against the unauthorised boards and flags came up for hearing, the court directed the Special Secretary, Local Self-Government department, to inform it about the proposal for starting a website for uploading the complaints. The court passed the order when it was brought to its notice by the amicus curiae that there is no effective systems where citizens can bring the issue of illegal erection of such boards to the notice of the authorities.
