Petitioner has already preferred Exts.P10 and P11 appeals before the 2nd respondent. I feel that the petitioner can be relegated to pursue the remedy in the appeals. Accordingly, writ petition is disposed of as follows. If the petitioner moves applications seeking stay in Exts.P10 and P11 appeals within one week from today, the 2nd respondent will consider and take a decision thereon in accordance with law within three weeks from the date of filing of the applications. Till such decision is taken, recovery proceedings will be kept in abeyance. Petitioner will produce a copy of this judgment before the 2nd respondent as soon as it is received.
