Rule was issued and the matter was called out for final hearing earlier. It is not disputed that the petitioner has not gone to the Appellate Committee. The petitioner can approach the Appellate Committee by filing an appeal, if he is so advised. In the facts and circumstances, in my opinion, the petition deserves to be disposed of, by granting liberty to the petitioner, if he is so advised, to file an appeal before the Appellate Committee. If such an appeal is filed on or before 1st of May, 2000, the Appellate Committee will entertain the same without raising any objection as to limitation. Rule is accordingly discharged. No order as to costs. I may state that I have not expressed any opinion on the merits of the matter. 7th April, 2000 ( C.K. Thakkar, J. ) **** (apj)
