I am not inclined to consider the contentions on merits since the petitioner has got an effective alternate remedy by way of filing a revision against Ext.P5 before the Commissioner of Land Revenue as provided under Rule 21(8) of the Kerala Land Assignment Rules. Therefore, without prejudice to such right of the petitioner, this writ petition is dismissed. Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge 2
