Let me not examine deeply into the reasons. The petitioner may therefore, file an appeal in accordance with G.O.Ms.No.478, dated 22.09.2022 before the Revenue Divisional Officer, who is the Appellate Authority. The period of limitation is still available and I am confident, if such appeal is filed, the Appellate Authority will make necessary enquiries and examine the 2/4
