¶16

no.1/ DDA opposes this request. She submits that no further time should be given to the petitioner for availing the remedies available in law.

¶17

In my considered view, the principles of natural justice require that reasonable time be given to the petitioner to invoke remedies that may be available in law, against the order to be passed by DDA.

¶18

Accordingly, this application is disposed of, while directing that in the event a speaking order passed by DDA is against the petitioner, no coercive steps shall be taken for a period of three (3) working days in order for the petitioner to avail appropriate remedies in law.

¶19

The application stands disposed of in the above terms.
