The learned trial court rejected the application without even adverting to the grounds as has been taken in the application.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court perused the material placed on record and found that the proceedings that had been decided by the Assistant Collector had already been assailed before the Divisional Commissioner and the same were otherwise pending at the time when the suit came to be filed by the plaintiff questioning therein again the order passed by the Assistant Collector.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court was of the view that as a general principle where two remedies are available under law one of them should not be taken as operating in derogation of the other. If a party elected to pursue one remedy he was bound by it and could not on his failing therein proceed under another provision.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Accordingly, the Court found merit in the petition and allowed the petition by setting aside the impugned order and the suit filed by the plaintiffs was ordered to be rejected under Order 7 Rule 11 CPC.
