CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AMIT RAWAL -.- AMIT RAWAL J.(ORAL) The prayer in the application is for review of the order dated 31.05.2017 on the premise that instead of direction given for filing appeal before the Joint Development Commissioner, Punjab, it should have been before the Secretary, Rural Development Punjab, as the statutory provision allows filing of the appeal only before the Secretary, Rural Development Punjab.

Keeping in view the aforementioned fact, the prayer in the application is allowed. The applicant-petitioner is granted liberty to avail the remedy of appeal before the Secretary, Rural Development, Punjab instead of the Joint Development Commissioner, Punjab.

This Court while disposing of the writ petition had already observed that the period spent in this Court shall be condoned. The period lapsed during the pendency of the present application, shall also be excluded for the purpose of computing the limitation.

The application stands allowed in the above terms. (AMIT RAWAL) JUDGE July 28, 2017 Pankaj* Whether reasoned/speaking Yes/No Whether reportable Yes/No PANKAJ KUMAR 2017.08.03 11:12 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document
