(Judgment of the Court was made by R.SUBRAMANIAN, J.) A show cause notice was the subject matter of challenge in the writ petition.

2. The writ Court has dismissed the writ petition on the ground that the enquiry has been conducted by the Revenue Divisional Officer as per the direction of this Court. It is the case of the petitioner that the Revenue Divisional Officer has no power to conduct an enquiry as per the orders of this Court dated 28.04.2020 made in W.P.No.34962 of 2019. 2/5

3. It is open to the petitioner to raise the said contention before the Revenue Divisional Officer who has initiated enquiry at present. Therefore, we see no merit in this writ appeal. The writ appeal fails and it is accordingly dismissed. No costs. Consequently, the connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
