Learned Counsel for the petitioner, however, submits that he would not insist upon the final adjudication of the Revision Applications, but expects, at least, that notices be issued by the said authorities, i.e. respondent Nos.1 and 2, in the respective Revision Applications filed before them. 3. By invoking the writ jurisdiction of this Court, we are not expected to exercise our writ jurisdiction for this purpose, as we are not conscious of the pendency of the proceedings before the Hon’ble Minister as well as the Joint Divisional Registrar. We can, however, observe that if proceedings are filed before them, being the Competent Authorities, either as Appellate Authorities or otherwise, we expect the authorities to take cognizance thereof and take appropriate steps, so that a person like the petitioner is not required to approach this Court praying that the authority should at least issue notice. If respondent Nos.1 and 2 are vested with the power to decide the Revision Applications, they are expected to take appropriate steps for adjudicating the Revision Applications, which automatically N. S. Chitnis 2/3 10-wp.12374.2026.doc would commence with the issuance of notice. Since we do not intend to issue any direction at this stage, we hope and trust that the learned Government Advocate shall bring this order to the notice of respondent Nos.1 and 2. Writ Petition is disposed of accordingly. ASHISH S. CHAVAN, J. BHARATI DANGRE, J. N. S. Chitnis 3/3
