1. Though matter is listed for preliminary hearing, by consent of learned Advocates appearing for the parties, matter is taken up for final disposal. I have heard the arguments of Sriyuths A.V. Gangadharappa and S.K. Venkatareddy, learned Advocates appearing for parties and perused the records.

2. Pleadings in respect of both the writ petitions are one and the same. Parties in both the writ petitions are also same. Hence, both the writ petitions are taken up together for adjudication and disposal.

3. W.P. No. 36236/2015 is preferred by defendants 1 to 3 in O.S. No. 1/2010 being aggrieved by the order dated 31.07.2015 passed on I.A.
