It is further directed that if the Petitioner is still in possession of the disputed property in question, status quo as on today in respect of the disputed property in question shall be maintained by all the parties concerned for a period of four weeks. Within which period the I.A. for interim protection to be filed by the Petitioner shall be considered and disposed of.
