ORDER
22.07.2026
Heard Mr. H Das, the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners. I have also heard Ms. G Hazarika, learned Standing Counsel, Revenue Department; Mr. H Sarma, the learned counsel appearing on behalf of respondent Nos.3 to 7; and Mr. A Ikbal, the learned counsel appearing on behalf of respondent Nos.9 to 24.
2. The present writ petition has been filed by the petitioners challenging a notice issued in a proceeding registered as Misc.Case No.28/2025.
3. The petitioners have also filed their objections, but apprehending that an order would be passed thereby striking out their names, the present writ petition has been filed.
4. It is the opinion of this Court that the present writ petition is a complete abuse of the process of the Court and the petitioners have taken undue advantage of the liberal approach of this Court in entertaining the writ petitions.
5. This Court deprecates the conduct of the petitioners in approaching this Court and reprimands them. As the present proceedings is nothing but an abuse of the process of the Court to delay the proceedings before the statutory Authority, this Court not only dismisses the instant writ petition, but also directs the Circle Officer, Chapor Revenue Circle to dispose of the said Misc.Case No.28/2028 preferably within a period of 60(sixty) days from the date of service of the certified copy of this order.
