Mr. Ojaswi, the learned counsel for the petitioner, submits that this Court must intervene under 226 of the Constitution of India because [a] the petitioner has not been given an opportunity, [b] there is no inspection of the property and [c] that the impugned Confirmation Order is dated even prior to the Provisional Order. It would suffice for this Court to observe that all these grounds could also be examined in the statutory appeal under Section 250 of the GBG Act that the petitioner may file against the Confirmation Order, and therefore, this Court is not inclined to - 4 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010600532026 NC: 2026:KHC:46242 WP No. 26898 of 2026 interfere with the Confirmation Order in exercise of jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. At this stage, Mr. Ojaswi submits that this Court may protect the petitioner from immediate coercive measures so that the petitioner has a reasonable time to avail statutory remedy. This Court is only inclined to observe that if the petitioner avails the statutory remedy along with an application for interim order, the Appellate Authority must consider the same expeditiously without rendering the appeal nugatory. The petition stands disposed of accordingly. Sd/- (B M SHYAM PRASAD) JUDGE RB
