Respondents. ----------- 2. 20.07.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing for the state. This application has been filed for quashing the order dated 08.06.2009 passed by the District Teachers Employment Appellate Tribunal, Muzaffarpur. Petitioner’s grievance is that appellate authority has passed order cancelling his appointment without issuing any 2 notice to him and without affording any opportunity to show cause in this case. On perusal of the impugned order, I find that the appellate authority had not issued notice to the petitioners who were appointed and working as teachers. By the impugned order, the appointment of petitioners has been cancelled. Considering the fact that impugned order has been passed completely in violation of principle of natural justice, it is being quashed. The writ application is allowed. This matter is remitted back to the Appellate Tribunal, Muzaffarpur for reconsidering the matter after issuing notices to all concerned including the petitioners. The speaking and reasoned order should be passed only after giving opportunity to concerned persons including the petitioners to defend their cases. akv/ ( Mridula Mishra, J )
