In the alternative they submitted that since the matter is pending before the Additional Collector, Deedwana, he may be directed to decide the said appeal within stipulated time frame and since the matter has already been listed on 28th March, 2008 upon an application for early hearing filed by the present petitioners only, the said Additional Collector may be directed to decide the said appeal within the stipulated time frame. 6.
