Thampan Thomas and the learned Government Pleader. 2. Petitioner challenges Exts.P6 and P7. A direction is also sought to dispose of Ext.P8 appeal. Since the petitioner has already approached the appellate forum, I feel that the petitioner should be relegated to the pursuit of the appellate remedy. In order to facilitate the petitioner to move the appellate authority seeking stay, the interim order passed by this court will continue for a period of one month from today. The writ petition is disposed of as above. (K.M. JOSEPH, JUDGE) sb
