steps. Heard the learned Government Pleader also. In such

circumstances, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the

second respondent to consider and take a decision on Ext.P3

application seeking stay in accordance with law, within three

weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this Judgment. Till a

decision is taken as aforesaid, recovery proceedings against the

petitioner will be kept in abeyance.
