Respondents ----------- 2. 30.6.2009. After having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State, this Court would not like to exercise its discretion under Article 226 at this stage since a notice to show cause has been issued to the petitioner vide letter dated 24.4.2009. Let the petitioner first file his show cause, take all the factual and legal grounds before the concerned authorities and let a reasoned order be passed thereafter before the validity of the same can be tested by this High Court under the writ jurisdiction.
