C.W.P.No.3001 of 2011(O&M) 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.W.P.No.3001 of 2011(O&M) Date of decision : 12.12.2011 Virender Singh ....Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and others ...Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MAHESH GROVER Present : Mr.John Kumar, Advocate for Mr. Vikram Singh, Advocate for the petitioner Mr. Harish Rathee, Sr. DAG, Haryana Mr. Sandeep Chhabra, Advocate for respondent no.4. MAHESH GROVER, J. The solitary contention raised by the petitioner is that the Financial Commissioner while passing the impugned order dated 8.12.2010 (Annexure P-3) did not issue any notice to the petitioner before accepting the revision and remanding the matter back to the competent authority for decision afresh. This fact has not been disputed by the learned counsel for the respondents. In this view of the matter, I am of the considered opinion that the impugned order suffers from grave infirmity as the petitioner was never issued any notice and order was passed at his back and therefore it amounts to violation of the principles of natural justice. For the aforesaid reasons, the impugned order is set aside and the matter is remitted back to the Financial Commissioner to hear the parties C.W.P.No.3001 of 2011(O&M) 2 afresh and pass a speaking order. Since the petitioner and respondents both are represented, it would be appropriate to direct the parties to appear before the Financial Commissioner on 17.1.2012. Disposed of.
