Having regard to the fact that the Rule itself provides for an appellate remedy against Ext.P1, I am not inclined to entertain the writ petition. Needless to say that if an appeal is filed within two weeks from today, that will be entertained by the appellate authority. This writ petition is dismissed. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
