In the High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh ...... C.W.P. No. 9344 of 2007 ..... Date of decision: 11.6.2007 Pritam Singh .....Petitioner v. State of Punjab and others .....Respondents .... Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice S.S. Saron Hon'ble Mr. Justice Arvind Kumar Present: Mr. Kanwaljit Singh, Sr.Advocate, with Mr. I.S.Gill, Advocate, for the petitioner. ..... S.S. Saron, J. (Oral): Petitioner by way of this petition under Article 226/227 of the Constitution of India seeks setting aside of recovery proceedings initiated against him vide order dated 15.5.2007 (Annexure P-4). The said proceedings, it is stated, have been initiated on the basis of arbitration awards dated 27.11.1987 and 15.10.1990 (Annexures P-1 and P-2 respectively). During the course of hearing, counsel appearing for the petitioner does not dispute that the petitioner has an alternative remedy of filing an appeal/revision under the statutory provisions of the Punjab Co-operative Societies Act, 1961. In the facts and circumstances, we are of the view that it would be more appropriate if the petitioner avails the said alternative remedy, as permissible under the law. Consequently, the present writ petition is pre-mature and is accordingly dismissed. ( S.S. Saron) Judge June 11, 2007. (Arvind Kumar) Judge JS
