The learned Single Judge took note of the fact that as the appellant- writ petitioner had already availed the remedy under the Bihar Building (Lease, Rent and Eviction) Control Act, there was no justification to delve upon the issue raised in the writ petition. In our considered opinion, when the appellant has taken recourse to an alternative remedy, the same should be pursued in accordance with law. 2 With the aforesaid observation, the appeal stands disposed of.
