02. 16.05.2019 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. 2. By way of this writ petition, the petitioner has prayed for the following relief: “Under the above facts, circumstances and contentions, it is therefore, humbly prayed that this Hon’ble Court may graciously be pleased to admit the petition, after hearing the petitioner, instruct the opp.party No.1 to submit a status report on the information on violation of Income Tax rules submitted by the petitioner, as one year and eight months have since passed, from the date of submission of information and whereas all the facts are available on record. Further, this Hon’ble Court may be kind enough to issue a writ of mandamus to complete the enquiry into the information submitted by the Petitioner within a time frame as considered suitable by this Hon’ble Court and if found correct, then take suitable appropriate action. And/or pass any other order/orders, direction/directions as this Hon’ble Court may deem fit and proper in the ends of justice and equity.” 3. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner, we see that the petitioner is attempting to use the High Court as a platform to settle his personal score. It will not be appropriate to exercise the jurisdiction under Articles 226 of the Constitution. In that view of the matter, we are not inclined to entertain the writ petition. The writ petition is dismissed being devoid of merit. All connected Misc. Cases/I.As. are disposed of accordingly. SKJ .…….......……………… ( K.S. Jhaveri ) Chief Justice
