Respect the court order and do your job seriously," a bench of acting Chief Justice B D Ahmed and Justice Vibhu Bakhru said to the Deputy Commissioner, Central Zone of South MCD, the Chief Engineer and some others who were present in the court on the plea of South Extension residents complaining water-logging in the area.
