High Court reiterates that extraordinary writ jurisdiction should not bypass the alternative remedy of appeal except in exceptional circumstances; the appellate authority has wider powers to make further inquiry and may confirm, modify or annul impugned orders, so contested questions of fact should be addressed on appeal.
