IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD FRIDAY, THE EIGHTEENTH DAY OF NOVEMBER, TWO THOUSAND AND ELEVEN PRESENT:: HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY C.R.P.No.4205 OF 2010 Between: Union of India, Rep.by its General Manager, South Central Railway, Railnilayam, Secunderabad. …Petitioner A n d Shaik Hussain and another …Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY C.R.P.No.4205 OF 2010 ORDER: Heard both sides. 2. This civil revision petition is directed against the order dated 23.07.2010 in E.P.No.32 of 2010 in O.A.A.No.237 of 2000, on the file of the Railway Claims Tribunal, Secunderabad, wherein the Tribunal passed the following order: “No counter filed. The prayer for adjournment is rejected. Call on 27.08.2010 for hearing.” 3. The main grievance of the petitioner-railways is that the respondent-claimant without filing certified copy of the order passed in O.A.A.No.273 of 2000 straight away filed E.P on the basis of a copy of the order in C.M.A.No.786 of 2006 downloaded from the website of the High Court and the Tribunal has registered the E.P without insisting upon certified copy and the same is clearly in violation of the procedure prescribed under the Railway Claims Tribunal (Procedure) Rules and also the Civil Rules of Practice and the provisions of Civil Procedure Code. Admittedly, no certified copy of the order in C.M.A.No.786 of 2006 is filed along with the E.P. As rightly pointed out by the learned counsel for the petitioner-railways, in the absence of certified copy of the order, the EP ought not to have been registered and the impugned order rejecting the request made for grant of time for filing counter, is equally unsustainable. The impugned order is, therefore, set aside and the railways is permitted to file counter within four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of the order raising all those objections, including the maintainability of the EP in the absence of certified copy and the Tribunal shall dispose of the EP in accordance with law. 4. In the result, the civil revision petition is allowed. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ G.V.SEETHAPATHY, J 18th November, 2011 Lrkm.
