4. Admittedly, as against the impugned proceedings, the petitioner is having a remedy by way of filing an appeal before the authority referred to in the impugned proceedings by raising all the contentions as raised in these writ petitions. Without doing so, the petitioner has approached this Court and filed these writ petitions.
5. Needless to say that when such remedy is available to the petitioner, they have to first exhaust such remedy by raising all the contentions. Therefore, without expressing any view on the merits of the matter, these writ petitions are disposed of, by granting liberty to the petitioner to file such an appeal before the authority concerned within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. If any such appeal is filed, the concerned Appellate Authority shall consider the appeal and pass orders on the same on merits and in accordance with law, without reference to the period of limitation.
No costs.
Consequently, the connected miscellaneous petitions are closed.
