It is seen from the records that, Ext.P6 is a consequential order passed by the 1st respondent, based on yet another order dated 15.07.2024 passed under Section 13 of Kerala Conservation of Paddy Land and Wetland Act, 2008. The petitioners had neither produced the said order dated 15.07.2024, nor challenged the same in this writ petition. In the absence of any challenge against the basic order on which Ext.P6 is passed, the relief sought in this writ petition cannot be considered. Of course it is true that, the petitioners raised a contention that the order dated 15.07.2024 was issued to the predecessor in interest of the petitioners. However, that will not enable the petitioners to confine their challenge to Ext.P6 order. This is because, 2025:KER:27806 WP(C) NO. 11858 OF 2025 4 being the subsequent purchasers of the property the petitioners have stepped into the shoes of the previous owner and all the rights and liabilities attached with the property are applicable to the petitioners as well. In such circumstances, I do not find any justification to entertain this writ petition and accordingly, this writ petition is dismissed without prejudice to the right of the petitioners to challenge the order dated 15.07.2024 passed under Section 13 of the Kerala Conservation of Paddy Land and Wetland Act, 2008.
