ORDER:
Operative part
The petitioner seeks to challenge the proceedings dated 12-2-2004 and 16-5-2004 issued by the 1st respondent bringing the petitioner – Hospital under the Employees Provident Fund Act and directing it to pay certain amounts with interest. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that against the impugned orders, though an appeal has already been proffered before the 2nd respondent, neither the appeal has been disposed of nor any interim orders passed therein, and pending disposal of the appeal, the 1st respondent is proceeding to take steps to enforce the orders dated 12-2-2004 and 16-5-2004. Hence, the present writ petition is filed. Having regard to the fact that the appeal said to have been filed by the petitioner is pending before the 2nd respondent I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with the following directions: The 2nd respondent is directed to consider and dispose of the appeal or pending thereof consider passing interim orders in the interlocutory application filed therein, expeditiously. Till then, the respondents are directed not to take any coercive steps against the petitioner in pursuance of the orders dated 12-2-2004 and 16-5-2004. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. No costs. _________ 12-7-2004 To:
