A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice Abhay Shreeniwas Oka and Justice N.S. Sanjay Gowda issued the direction while hearing a PIL petition, filed by N.P. Amrutesh, a city-based advocate, through which the court has been monitoring action taken by the BBMP against dangling unauthorised wires of cable TV operators, Internet service providers and others. As the petitioner has provided the names of private Internet service providers and an association of cable TV operators in the city, the Bench directed them to be impleaded as parties to the petition.
