Aggrieved by the said order, he has filed Ext.P3 revision before the 1st respondent along with an application for stay and it is submitted that the same is pending. During its pendency, revenue recovery proceedings as per Ext.P5 have been initiated and that led the petitioner to file this writ petition seeking for appropriate reliefs. 2. I heard the learned Government Pleader also. 3. Taking into account the pendency of the statutory revision with an application for stay before the 1st respondent, I dispose of this writ petition directing the first respondent to consider and pass orders in the stay WPC 27582/07 : 2 : application filed by the petitioner along with revision. Orders on the stay application will be passed within a period of six weeks of receipt of a copy of this judgment and in the meanwhile further proceedings pursuant to Ext.P5 shall be kept in abeyance. Petitioner is directed to produce a copy of this judgment before the authorities for compliance. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE. Rp
