CMPMO No.224 of 2007. 23.10.2007. Present: Mr. Arvind Sharma, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. P.M. Negi, Dy. Advocate General, for the respondents. The petitioner was suspended as Pradhan, Gram Panchayat vide order passed by the Deputy Commissioner, Mandi on 12th July, 2007. Appeal against this order is pending before respondent No.2. On 27th September, 2007, respondent No.2 while acceding to the request of the petitioner for adjournment and postponement of the matter to 22nd October, 2007 vacated the stay granted by him earlier on 25th July, 2007. The order vacating the stay, even while acceding to the request for adjournment is palpably wrong and incorrect. I set aside that order. Consequently, the petition is allowed. Respondent No.2, however, is directed to dispose of the appeal on its merits and in accordance with law within two weeks from today. The petitioner through his counsel is directed to appear before respondent No.2 on 26th October, 2007 at 11.00 a.m. The petition is disposed of. CMP No.830 of 2007. In view of the disposal of the main petition, this application is also disposed of. Interim order passed on 11th October, 2007 shall stand vacated. 23rd October, 2007. (V.K. Gupta), C.J. (tr)
