W.P.(C) No.6055 of 2017
6.04.2017
Heard learned counsel for the parties.
The impugned notice under Annexure-2 has been assailed on the premises that for the re
pealing of the O.P.L.E Act 1954, the notice issued here is per se illegal. There is no denial
to the fact that the old Act has been repealed as substituted by the Act, 1972. Notice has bee
n issued in a format printed since long. Petitioner should not go by the format. The proceedin
g since initiated under the Act, 1972, it will be open to the petitioner to raise his objectio
n.
Considering the above, this matter stands disposed of with a direction that in the eve
nt, the proceeding is still pending, it will be open to the petitioner to raise his objection
on the merit of the proceeding and the proceeding shall be decided involving the petitioner.
Issue urgent certified copy on proper application.
(Biswanath Rath, J.)
