Justice Anoop Kumar Dhand was hearing petitions related to the shifting of the toll plaza five kilometres away from the municipal limits. They argued that despite this restriction, the toll plaza continued to function and alleged that it was illegal. After an earlier direction from the High Court to consider their representation, the District Collector had ordered on February 27, 2026 that the toll plaza be shifted five kilometres away. The court noted that planting trees will silently offer numerous benefits to the city and the surrounding community. It said that order directing tree plantation is in the interest of the public at large and for the greater public good.
