Petitioner seeks police protection. 2. We heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and also the learned Government Pleader. Going through the allegations and after hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner we take the view that it is more appropriate that the petitioner approaches the Civil Court. In fact, the learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner has already taken steps to move the Civil Court. Without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to seek appropriate relief in the civil suit and also further directing that if the petitioner complains about the commission of any cognizable offence, necessary action shall be taken in accordance with law, the writ petition is disposed of.
