Counsel for respondent No.2 urged several contentions. Heard the arguments and perused the papers with care. 4. The authorized officer of the Bank had issued a E- auction sale notice for sale of immovable assets under SARFAESI Act read with the relevant Rules. The petitioner's grievance is about the issuance of the e-auction sale notice. Any person/s aggrieved by issuance of notices under SARFAESI Act/ Rules are not powerless. They have a liberty of filing objections and also approach DRT under Section 17 of the Act, appealing to the Tribunal if needed. The Apex Court has settled the law in a catena of decisions that a E-auction sale notice cannot be challenged by filing a writ petition. The litigants are not remediless, as the Tribunal has been established specifically to adjudicate the lis. Hence, this Court declines to exercise discretionary powers under writ jurisdiction. The petition is - 4 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010584492025 NC: 2026:KHC:37352 WP No. 27017 of 2025 devoid of merits. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed.

Because of dismissal the Writ Petition, interim order granted if any stands discharged and pending interlocutory applications if any are disposed of. SD/- (JYOTI M) JUDGE SS List No.: 1 Sl No.: 15
