CWP (T) No. 2377 of 2008 25.2.2009 Present: Mr. H.K. Paul, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Adarsh Sharma, Advocate for the respondents. It is not disputed by the parties that the appellate order should be a speaking order. A bare perusal of order Annexure A-5 reveals that the same is not a speaking order. Mr. Adarsh Sharma fairly submits that the appellate authority, if directed by this Court, will pass a speaking order after hearing the petitioner. Consequently, in view of the fair stand of Mr. Adarsh Sharma, impugned order Annexure A-5 dated 17.10.1994 is set aside. The appellate authority is directed to re-hear the appeal and pass a speaking/reasoned order after hearing the petitioner. In view of the observations made hereinabove, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. (Rajiv Sharma), J. February 25, 2009. (cr)
