It is pertinent to mention here that earlier, when lock and seal notice was issued, petitioner approached this Court by way of writ petition and it was dismissed. 4.

However, it appears that on that aspect, no arguments were advanced before this Court. Therefore, no direction can be issued in a separate petition. Petitioner, if so advised, may take other appropriate remedy. 5. Petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs.
