It is seen that the petitioners have entered appearance before the Trial Court and the interim application preferred by the respondent has also been dismissed by the Trial Court on 29.12.2017. Since trial has already commenced, this Court is of the view that this is not a fit case in which the proceedings can be quashed at this stage.
