Heard the learned counsel appearing for the parties. 3. Having heard the learned counsel appearing for the parties and upon careful consideration of the impugned order dated 25.11.2025, it is evident that respondent No. 1 has remanded the matter to respondent No. 3 for reconsideration of the issue afresh, particularly in view of the fact that the grant - 5 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010118992026 NC: 2026:KHC:44780 WP No. 5308 of 2026 made in favour of the petitioners' vendor itself is under challenge. 4. Since the matter has been remanded to the competent authority for fresh consideration, and it is also noted that the petitioners has filed O.S. No. 292 of 2024 before the Principal Civil Judge and JMFC Magadi, seeking declaratory relief with consequential relief, I am of the opinion that no interference is called for in the present writ petition. 5. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. 6. However, it is open to the petitioners to approach the revenue authorities after conclusion of the proceedings in O.S. No. 292 of 2024.
