Obviously, the petitioner has statutory remedies by way of appeal against Ext.P4. I dispose of the Writ Petition relegating the petitioner to those remedies. However, there will be a direction to the 4th respondent- Panchayat not to enforce Ext.P4 for a period of one month from today. srd PIUS C.KURIAKOSE, JUDGE
