Vishwanath, learned counsel appearing for the respondent No.7. 3. Having heard the learned counsel appearing for the parties, on careful perusal of the averments made in the writ petition, it is forthcoming that the order dated 08th April, 2025 (Annexure-B) passed by the respondent No.4 in respect of the subject land has been challenged by the petitioners herein before the respondent No.1 in Revision Petition No.05/2025-26. Taking into consideration the controversy between the parties as to the continuation of interim order passed by the respondent No.1 in the impugned proceedings in Revision Petition No.05/2025-26, I am of the view that the respondent No.1 be directed to conclude the revision petition pending for consideration at the earliest. Therefore, the respondent No.1 is directed to dispose of Revision Petition No.05/2025-26 within a period of three months from the date of receipt of this order. - 5 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010536262025 NC: 2026:KHC:43360 WP NO.24412 OF 2025 4.
