K.A. Swami, Actg. J.1. As the appeals lie in a very narrow compass, they are admitted and heard for final disposal. These two appeals are preferred against the order dated September 15, 1992, passed by the learned single judge in Writ Petitions Nos. 27470 and 27471 of 1992. The learned single judge has rejected both the petitions on the ground that the properties which are brought for sale for recovery of the amount due under the assessment orders produced as annexures 'A' and 'A-1' in the writ petition do not belong to the assessee and further the petitioner assesses has filed the objections to the same, and as such, the authorities are required to consider the objections and take appropriate action in accordance with law. But the grievance made by Sri G. Chander Kumar, learned counsel for the appellant, is that, in the writ petitions, the petitioner has made two prayers : (1) to quash to orders of attachment of the properties and bringing them for sale as per annexures 'L' and 'O' da...
