Learned Government Pleader submits that admittedly enquiry is pending and no final orders have been passed under Section 4 of the Act. 3. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the opinion the writ petition is premature, as against any order passed under Section 4 of the Act an appeal lies under Section 4-A of the Act before the Revenue Divisional Officer. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________ V. ESWARAIAH, J January 21, 2008 DSK
