¶32

In view of the consensus arrived at between the parties, the impugned order, whereby the Registration Certificates of the vehicles owned / possessed by the petitioners were suspended, needs to be set aside, for the reasons that the petitioners were not afforded the opportunity of hearing and that the said vehicles are the source of bread and butter of the petitioners and their families.
