The Petitioner - The Greater Bombay Co-operative Bank Limited - contends that these properties were mortgaged with the Bank and therefore could not be attached under Section 180. -: 2 :- The order having been passed under Sections 180 and 181 of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, the Petitioner has efficacious, adequate and proper remedy by way of appeal provided under the Code itself. The Petitioner, which is the Co-operative Bank, has chosen to ignore the statutory remedy available and seeks intervention of this court instead of the appellate court, which is the competent court to hear and decide the matter. Writ jurisdiction, in our opinion, cannot be assumed in this fashion. Writ Petition is, therefore, dismissed. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
