For the Petitioner: MR.CH.JAGANNADHA RAO For the Respondent No.: GP FOR AGRICULTURE The Court Made the Following: W.P.NO.5775 OF 2004 ORAL ORDER: (PER GB, J) This Writ Petition is filed challenging the order passed by the A.P. Administrative Tribunal in O.A.No.4280 of 1997 dated 20-03-2003. 2. The said O.A. was dismissed by an order dated 20-03- 2003. The principal contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the name of Mr. B. Parameshwara Rao, who is the counsel on record was not printed in the cause list dated 17- 02-2002 to 21-02-2002. On the other hand, the name of Mr. N. Ravi Prasad Was listed and therefore the counsel could not attend and make his submission before the Tribunal. Therefore, he submits that the order is liable to be set aside. 3. We have heard the learned Government Pleader and also perused the cause list. The name of the counsel was mentioned as Mr. N. Ravi Prasad, whereas in the order, it is mentioned as Mr. B. Parameshwara Rao. There appears to be some omission in carrying out the name of Mr. B. Parameshwara Rao in the cause list, which has resulted in miscarriage of justice. Under the circumstances, we are of the considered view that one more opportunity should be given to the counsel to put forth his pleas before the Tribunal. W.P.NO.5775 OF 2004 4. Accordingly, the order of the Tribunal is set aside and the matter is remitted to the Tribunal for fresh hearing and for passing appropriate orders. The Writ Petition is disposed of directing the Tribunal to dispose of the case within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
