Till then no coercive steps shall be taken against the petitioners. 7) It is made clear that this Court has not expressed any opinion on the merits of the case, as the matter is pending for consideration before the concerned Collector under the revisional jurisdiction. 8) With this observations and directions, the petition stands disposed of. 9) In view of above, pending interlocutory applications, if any, shall also stand disposed of.
