RAMACHANDRA MENON J. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ W.P (C) No. 14227 of 2011 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dated, this the 30th May , 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioner has approached this Court seeking to set aside Ext. P4 order dated 12.05.2011 under the Kerala Conservation of Paddy Land and Wet Land Act, 2008. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that, the order is per se wrong and illegal in all respects; more so, when petitioner has not been given to understand the particulars of the property, which forms the subject matter of the said order and hence is before this Court, raising many a ground, legal as well as factual. 2. The learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondents submits that the petitioner is very much vested with the statutory remedy by way of appeal before the District Court and hence no interference is warranted in this writ petition. 3. After hearing both the sides, this Court finds that, it is not necessary for this Court to assume the role of a fact finding agency; which in fact has to be done by the appropriate authority as contemplated under the Statute. W.P. (C) No. 14227 of 2011 : 2 : Accordingly, the petitioner is relegated to avail the statutory remedy as provided under the Statute. The Writ Petition is dismissed without prejudice to the rights and liberties of the petitioner as aforesaid. P. R. RAMACHANDRA MENON, JUDGE kmd
