(Oral) The petitioner is aggrieved by the order passed by the first respondent on 15.2.2011, whereby his claim petition under the Workmen's Compensation Act has been dismissed in default. It appears that there was a confusion with regard to the jurisdiction. Now, all the Civil Judges (Sr. Division) have been conferred with the jurisdiction. We set aside the impugned order dated 15.2.2011, Annexure P-2, passed by the Commissioner under the Workmen's Compensation Act, with a further direction to transfer the claim case No. 1 of 2010, titled Rajinder Mal Versus The Chief of Project, to the Civil Judge (Sr. Division) Kinnaur at Reckong Peo. This shall be done within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment either from the Court or as produced by the petitioner and thereafter, the Commissioner under the Workmen's Compensation Act (the Civil Judge (Sr. Division) Kinnaur at Reckong Peo), shall issue notice to the parties and proceed thereafter in accordance with law, and dispose of the case on merits within another four months. 2. With the aforesaid observations, the writ petition stands disposed of, so also the pending application(s), if any.
