Later, realising that such a suit can only be filed in the court of the District Judge, an application was moved on 17-2-1990 praying for return of the plaint for being presented in the proper Court as it had been filed in the wrong court, the Court allowed the application despite appellants objection against return of the plaint on the plea that the plaint deserved to be rejected and, therefore, cannot be ordered to be returned for presentation to another Court....
