In the circumstances, the writ application is disposed of with liberty to the petitioners to file an appropriate application before the concerned Appellate Authority, if not already filed, for redressal of their grievances. In case such an application is filed by the petitioners within one month, the Appellate Authority shall consider the same and all documents enclosed therewith, including orders of this Court in identical matters, if produced, and other relevant records and make all endeavours to dispose of the same on its own merits after hearing the parties concerned by a speaking order, preferably within the time prescribed under the Rules for the purpose, without going into the question of limitation. It is made clear that this Court has not expressed any opinion with regard to the merits of the claim of the petitioners. Arvind/ (J. N. Singh, J.)
