State Government, as the case may be,&
(a) the Municipality shall not, in respect of such national
highway, state highway, or street, grant permission to
do any act, the doing of which without its permission,
in writing, would contravene the provisions of this Act,
except with the sanction of the Central Government or
the State Government, as the case may be; and
(b) if so required by Central Government or the State
Government, the Municipality shall exercise the
powers conferred upon it by this Act or any bye-laws
relating to such street.
(2) In the case of roads vested in the State Government, and
passing through the municipal area, the Municipality shall have

occupation thereof and removal of encroachments therefrom are
concerned, but the maintenance of such roads shall remain with the
State Government.
