The Indiranagar police have booked a restaurant for violating the Karnataka Open Place Disfigurement Act, 1951 and 1981. The action took place on March 7 at around 4.45pm on 100 Feet Road footpath, in front of Kebab Theory restaurant.
The cops saw 6×4 feet flex promotional materials placed on the footpath without any permission from the relevant authorities. Therefore, the police booked a case against the restaurant manager and the owner of Kebab Theory for spoiling the beauty of the city. Interestingly, the BBMP can fine the establishment for using the banned flex banners as well, and this is usually the case. That the cops jumped in with a different act to book the restaurant is a surprise, though not illegal in any way.
