P4 by which quarrying permit has been rejected by the 1st respondent. According to the petitioner, such rejection has been on an erroneous factual basis. In my view since the Kerala Minor Mineral Concession Rules itself provides for an appellate remedy as per Rule 49 thereof, it is for the petitioner to pursue the remedy so available. With that liberty and without prejudice to the contentions, this writ petition is closed. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE jan/-
