In this writ petition, the petitioner has sought for a direction to respondents No.3 and 4 to register a case against respondent No.5. 3. Taking into consideration the arguments advanced by the learned counsel for the parties, I am of the view that, it is not a rarest of rare case for entrusting a matter to respondent No.3 to investigate the allegations made against Respondent No.5 by the petitioner, which is of public interest. However, in the event, the petitioner is having any grievance against respondent No.5, he can very much avail the efficacious remedy available under law. 4. In that view of the matter, no interference is called for in this writ petition. Writ petition is dismissed accordingly. SD/- (E.S.INDIRESH) JUDGE rs List No.: 1 Sl No.: 25 CT-SG
