In that view of the matter, the respondent no.2 is directed to decide the appeal filed by the present petitioner, on its own merits, within a period of one month from today. The petitioner, so also, respondent nos.4 to 10 are directed to appears before respondent no.2 on 29th June 2009. As such, notice of hearing to the said respondent shall stand waived. 4. It is made clear that till disposal of the appeal, the parties are directed to maintain status quo. 5. With the above directions, the petition is disposed of. ( B.R.
