¶2The nature of relief as sought for in the present writ petition is not maintainable. The disputed fact of civil nature cannot be adjudicated since the issues are considered in the writ petition filed by the same writ petitioner in W.P.No.2616 of 2022. Therefore, no further adjudication needs to be entertained. In the event of institution of civil suit, the civil Court shall decide the issues independently based on the documents and evidences available on record, uninfluenced by the order passed in the writ petition. Consequently, the Writ Petition stands dismissed. No costs.
