2. The main prayer in this writ petition is to issue appropriate direction to respondents 2 to 5 to act upon the complaint lodged by the 2^nd petitioner against the alleged illegal conversion of paddy and wetland by the 6^th respondent. Now when the mater came up for consideration, the counsel for the petitioners takes me through Ext.P11 produced along with IA No.1/2025. Ext.P11 is an order under Section 13 of the Kerala Conservation of Paddy Land and Wetland Act . If that is the case, the writ petition need not be retained here.

3. If Ext.P11 became final, the statutory authorities will see that the same is implemented in accordance with law. I make it clear that if the 6^th respondent is aggrieved by Ext.P11, he is free to challenge the same in accordance with law.

With the above observation, this writ petition is disposed of.
