Jeet Singh and Ors. Vs State of Punjab etc.

The sole submission made by counsel for the petitioners, while praying for issuance of a writ of certiorari, is to set aside order dated 16.5.2012, as delay of 16 years has been condoned, without assigning any clear and cogent reason, particularly when the application filed by the Gram Panchayat is devoid of any clear and cogent explanation.

¶16

Counsel for the Gram Panchayat states that he has no objection if the impugned order is set aside and the matter is remitted to the Appellate Authority to decide the appeal afresh and in accordance with law.

¶17

C.W.P.No. 1275 of 2013 -2-
