Rules, for the sale of a house having beenserved on him in the course of the proceeding pending for recovery of income-tax dues, may be quashed. 2. The petitioner's case is that he received a notice fixing 21st February, 1974, as the date for the sale of the house, on 15th January, 1974. On 13th February, 1974, he filed an objection to the sale of the property before the TRO. He filed another objection on 30th June, 1974, objecting to the sale of the house. The grievance of the petitioner is that without disposing of these objections the TRO is proceeding to sell the house. This is evident from a second notice dated 8th November, 1974, stating that the house will be sold on 20th December, 1974. 3.
