By way of filing of instant writ petition, a challenge has been made to the review DPC for promotion to the post of LDC-1. 2. Admittedly, the petitioner has an alternative efficacious statutory remedy of filing appeal before the Rajasthan Civil Service Appellate Tribunal (for short ‘the Tribunal’) but without availing the alternative statutory remedy of filing an appeal before the statutory Appellate Authority, the petitioner has straightaway approached this Court by way of filing of this writ petition. 3. It is settled proposition of law whenever alternative statutory appeal is available to the person, he/she cannot be allowed to bypass the jurisdiction of the said authority. 4. In view of the above, the instant writ petition stands disposed of, granting liberty to the petitioner to file statutory appeal before the appropriate Appellate authority. 5. Stay application as well as all pending application, if any, also stands disposed of. 6. In case, such appeal is submitted by the petitioner within a period of one month from today, the Appellate Authority is expected to hear and decide the same on its merits, expeditiously as early as possible, preferably within a period of three months thereafter, ignoring the period of limitation and after affording the due opportunity of hearing to both the parties.
