P2 and P2(a) appeals along with Exts. P3 and P3(a) interlocutory applications for stay, which are pending consideration before the second respondent. The grievance of the petitioner is that without any regard to the pendency of the above proceedings, the respondents are proceeding with coercive steps, which hence are sought to be intercepted.

Coercive proceedings stated as being pursued against the petitioner shall be kept in abeyance till such time.
