On that basis show cause notice was issued to respondent no.5. Respondent no.2 has passed the impugned order. From the reading of the order, it is apparent that no reason, whatsoever, has been recorded. In view of the above circumstances, this petition is allowed. The impugned order dated 28.5.2009, referred to above, is hereby set aside and remitted back to respondent no.2 to pass a fresh speaking and reasoned order after observing principles of natural justice.
