Dear All,
Please find attached the copy of order.
This order is not a stay order. The H'ble HC ordered status quo to be maintained.
Stay order and status quo, according to me, are different terminology in law. The validity of the attached order will be till next date of hearing. Also, another point is to be noted that the order of H'ble HC at Madras will have binding effect in its' jurisdiction only.
