RANCHI, India, Dec. 26 -- Jharkhand High Court issued the following order on Nov. 26:

Since the petitioner has not availed the alternative remedy of appeal, I am not inclined to entertain the writ petition, filed under Section 226 of the Constitution only on the ground that the statutory remedy is available to the petitioner by way of statutory appeal.

The petitioner should file an appeal before the Appellate Authority within four weeks from today. If such appeal is filed, the same will be heard and disposed of on merits, preferably within six months from filing of such appeal.

Accordingly, this petition is dismissed.
