COMMON ORDER
(Order of the Court was made by M.M.SUNDRESH, J.)
The petitioners, who are claiming to be tenants, have come
forward to file these writ petitions challenging the impugned
notices. Admittedly, the impugned notices are either appealable or
revisionable. In such view of the matter, we are not inclined to
entertain these writ petitions and the petitioners are at liberty to
exhaust the statutory/alternative remedy. Taking into consideration
of the fact that the petitioners are stated to be tenants, we are
inclined to grant four weeks time from the date of receipt of a copy
of this order to the petitioners to exhaust the alternative remedy
before the appropriate forum. Till such time, status-quo, as on
date, shall be maintained.
2. In fine, all the writ petitions stand disposed of. No costs.
