Mr Palekar, learned AGP has no objection for granting such liberty. 3. Having regard to the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned AGP, for the respondents, I am satisfied that the following order will meet the ends of justice: (i) Liberty to the petitioners to institute appropriate proceedings for establishing their rights in the property in dispute. (ii) It is needless to state that the orders impugned in the writ petition would be subject to outcome of the proceedings that would be instituted by the petitioners for determining their rights in the property in dispute. It is open for the petitioners to approach the revenue authority as and when they succeed in those proceedings. While granting the liberty I shall not be understood to have expressed any opinion on merits of the case. If the proceedings are initiated by the petitioners for determining of their rights, same may be considered in accordance with law. The writ petition is accordingly disposed as not pressed. :3: :3: :3: (iii) All contentions are left open. (D.B.Bhosale, (D.B.Bhosale, (D.B.Bhosale, J.) J.) J.)
