In the light of the above submission of learned counsel for the petitioner, the Writ Petition is disposed of with the direction to respondent No.2 to consider the petitioner's request for refund of the Earnest Money Deposit and communicate his decision to the petitioner within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. If the petitioner feels aggrieved by the said communication, he shall be free to avail appropriate remedy in accordance with law.

As a sequel to disposal of the Writ Petition, WPMP.No.35848 of 2012 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous.
