Advocate, appea ring for the respondent Nos.1 to 4. Heard also Dr. AK Saraf, learned Senior coun sel, for the respondent Nos.6 to 10, and Mr. N. Deka, learned counsel, for the r espondent No.5. Considering the fact that after filing of this writ petition, the petitioners ha ve already made an application for similar relief, which they have claimed in th is writ petition, in Kolkata Debts Recovery Tribunal No.2, the application havin g given rise to OA/885/2009 and an order has already been passed, on 15.02.2011, in OA/885/2009, directing the Deputy Commissioner-cum-Land Acquisition Officer, Tinsukia, Assam, and the Director, Land Revenue (Settlement) Department, Dispur , Guwahati, not to release the amount lying with them in respect of the properti es mentioned in the order and also mentioned in the OA along with its annexure M and N till further order, it is abundantly clear that the petitioners have elected to avail alternative remedy. Having obtained the order as far back as on 15.02.2011, the petitioners maintain ed complete silence and did not disclose the same to this Court. This Court is, therefore, of the view that in the facts and attending circumstances of the pres ent case, this writ petition cannot be sustained so long as the petitioners’ app lication, which has given rise to OA No.885/2009, is not disposed of. In view of the above and in the interest of justice, this writ petition is dispo sed of as not maintainable. Liberty is, however, granted to the petitioners to t ake recourse to appropriate provisions of law, in future, if so advised. The interim directions, passed, in this writ petition, on 09.11.2010, and contin ued thereafter, shall accordingly stand vacated. No costs.
