Judgment

to be embarked by this Court in exercise of its writ jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India at first instance, by reasons of specific statutory remedy, no decision is rendered thereon. Thus on the consideration that plot No. 1793 to the extent of 31 decimal stands recorded in the name of the State, I am of the view that no injunction of any nature can be granted insofar as utilization of the aforesaid plot by the State, in the manner it chooses, in accordance with law. The aforesaid order shall, however, not interfere with the rights of the petitioner to challenge the aforesaid recording if so advised, in accordance with law before appropriate forum. The aforesaid, however, shall not tantamount to a leave granted to the petitioner to challenge the same.
