J U D G M E N T It is not disputed before me that the petitioner has got a right of appeal against the impugned orders in these writ petitions. The only contention of the petitioner is that if the petitioner's unit is stopped immediately, 50 employees would be rendered jobless. I am of opinion that the interest in that regard can be safeguarded if the petitioner is given some time to approach the appellate authority to obtain stay orders in the matter. Accordingly, these writ petitions are disposed of without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to challenge the impugned orders in an appeal. The interim order granted by this court shall continue to be in force for a period of one month to enable the petitioner to move the appellate authority for the interim orders in the matter. S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE rhs
