Provided that, before exercising such powers, so far as may be compatible with the exigencies of the purpose for which the entry is to be made, reasonable notice shall be given to the owner and occupiers, and the power shall be exercised as far as possible in their presence or in the presence of their representatives, and due regard shall be had to the social and religious usages of the owner or occupiers ;

Where any such building or part thereof is caused to be vacated, the Board shall allot to the occupiers who are dishoused or required to vacate their premises temporary accommodation in any building maintained by the Authority at such place and to such extent as it deems fit; and the relevant provisions of this Chapter shall mutatis mutandis apply to such occupiers.
