1 D.B. Special Appeal(Writ) No.643/2008 Smt.Bhagwan Devi V/s Appellate Tribunal JDA & ors. 5.8.2008 Hon'ble the Chief Justice Mr.Narayan Roy Hon'ble Mr.Justice Mohammad Rafiq Mr.R.P.Garg for the appellant. Heard learned counsel for the appellant. Delay in filing this appeal is condoned. By the order impugned, the writ application filed by the petitioner was dismissed upholding order passed by JDA Appellate Tribunal. We have gone through the impugned order and also the order passed by JDA Appellate Tribunal. The Tribunal, on scrutiny of pleadings of the parties, held that the appellant had efficacious remedy by way of filing suit before the competent civil court. On seeing the grievances raised in this appeal and also in writ application, we are of the same view that the matter can be decided by the competent civil court in a properly constituted suit. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the appellant however faced with this situation could not convince us further in the matter. In view of the findings recorded by the Tribunal and also by the learned Single Judge of this Court, the writ petitioner-appellant, if so advised, may bring a properly constituted suit before the competent civil court for redressal of her grievances. The observations made by the 2 learned Single Judge of this Court in the order impugned however will not prejudice the cause of this appellant before the competent authority. With these observations and directions, this appeal is disposed of. (Mohammad Rafiq)J. (Narayan Roy)C.J. Parmar
