remedy of filing application before the Bihar Land Tribunal constituted under the Bihar Land Tribunal Act, 2009 after amendment made in the relevant provisions.

¶28

Since the petitioners have statutory remedy, this Court is not inclined to entertain the application. Let the petitioners approach the Tribunal for ventilation of their grievance against the impugned orders. Let it be recorded that this Court has not gone on the merit of the claim of the petitioners. Before parting with the case, this Court may also observe if the petitioners approach the Tribunal within a reasonable period of time and seek condonation of delay, if any, the Tribunal will allow the said application considering the fact that the petitioners had been bonafidely pursuing their remedy before this Court.
