The petitioner’s grievance is with the Demolition
Order dated 30.08.2024 [Annexure-A] which is consequent to the Confirmation Order referred to above and the rejection of the plaint in the suit. Sri Balaraj V R, the learned counsel for the petitioner, argues to support the petitioner’s request for this Court’s interference. However, it would suffice to observe that the petitioner, with the civil Court having rightly reserved liberty to avail the appellate remedy, should have availed such remedy as all aspects could be considered by the appellate Authority.
