Mandal ------------ Dated, the 25th November, 2008. Since the order dated 16th October, 2008 is only an ad - 2 - interim order inasmuch as one of the affected parties, namely, respondent no. 4 has not been heard, we are of the view that it is not necessary to consider the diverse aspects raised in the appeal on merits and interest of justice would be sub-served if the appellants apply to the Single Judge for discharge/vacation of the order dated 16th October, 2008. We observe that if an application for vacation/discharge is made by the appellants, the Single Judge would consider the same and pass appropriate order after hearing the parties concerned. 2. With the aforesaid observations, Letters Patent Appeal is disposed of. R. M. Lodha, CJ Kishore K. Mandal, J AMIN/-
