JUSTICE MOHIT KUMAR SHAH ORAL JUDGMENT (Per: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA) Date : 07-12-2021 The petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 02.03.2020, passed by the Sub Divisional Officer, Sadar Chapra, District- Saran at Chapra. Petitioner's grievance is that he was given only 24 hours to reply to the show cause notice. As there was delay in replying to the same, the impugned order was passed without assigning any reason except that the reply to the show cause notice given, was not satisfactory.

Patna High Court CWJC No.4434 of 2021 dt.07-12-2021 2/2 We have perused the order. We find that the same is nonspeaking in nature. Thus, we deem it fit and proper to set aside the matter and remit it back to the concerned authority for taking decision afresh after affording an opportunity of hearing to the parties.

The writ petition stands allowed in the aforesaid terms. (Rajan Gupta, J) (Mohit Kumar Shah, J) P.Kumar/Anand Kr.
