Nathuram Ragho Nalavade & Anr. ... Respondents Mr. Kishor Patil for the Petitioner Mr.P.S.Dani with Mr. Drupal Patil for Respondent No.1 Mr. S.N.Bhosle AGP for Respondent No.2 CORAM: S.C.DHARMADHIKARI, J. DATE: AUGUST 10, 2011. P.C.: 1 Mr. Patil appearing on behalf of the Petitioner in all fairness states that the Petitioner has a remedy available by filing a Revision Application before the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal, Bombay, which remedy has been already availed of. In my opinion, the Petitioner has an alternate equally efficacious remedy available to him in law to challenge the order of the Sub Divisional Officer dated 11-11-2010. The Writ Petition is, therefore, disposed of with liberty to the Petitioner to raise all contentions available to him before the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal. 2 At this stage, Mr. Dani appearing for the Respondent No.1 states that an affidavit in reply has been filed on behalf of the Respondent No.1 and it is stated that before the ad-interim order was passed by this Court on 1-3-2011, the lands have already been transferred and disposed of in : 2 : wp-1813-11.sxw favour of third parties. He relies upon an order passed by the Collector / Sub-Divisional Officer under Section 43 of the Act, enabling the Respondent No.1 to do so. 3 To my mind, it is not necessary to go into these aspects once the Writ Petition itself is not maintainable because of availability of alternate equally efficacious remedy. Since the Writ Petition is disposed of on this ground, ad-interim order dated 1-3-2011 is continued but subject to the orders that are brought to my notice by the Respondent No.1 and without prejudice to the rights and contentions of the parties in that behalf. Whatever steps that have been taken by the Respondent No.1 in pursuance of the SDO’s order shall abide by final out come of the pending Revision application. The Writ Petition is disposed of without expressing any opinion on the rival contentions. (S.C.DHARMADHIKARI, J.)
