Iqbal Begum, predecessorin-interest of respondents Nos.4 and 5, had obtained sanction from the Commissioner, Multan, on 16-8-1928. 2. We have gone through the impugned order and, in our opinion, the precise question involved in the instant case is, as to whether the sanction was validly granted in favour of the predecessor-in- interest of respondents Nos.4 and 5 on 16-8-1928. As far as this question is concerned, this can only be determined by a forum competent to decide the same. Learned counsel for the respondents, has seriously disputed the validity of the above sanction granted on 16-8-1928. Under the above circumstances, the petitioners may avail remedy before the appropriate forum for the redressal of their grievance save in accordance with law. 3. The petition stands disposed of in the above terms.
