pending adjudication before the Deputy Chief Executive Member, and the same was not disclosed before this Court.
2. Mr. P.T. Sangma, learned counsel for the respondents Nos. 5 & 6, and Mr. J.M. Sangma, learned counsel for the respondent No. 7, however have raised objections and submits that the applicant has not brought any materials on record to substantiate this fact.

submissions of the opposite parties are correct, and that nothing has been annexed to the Misc. Case to show the pendency of the matter before the Deputy Chief Executive Member, I/C Land & Revenue, or any other supplementary proceedings pending.
