The only ground on which the order of the Disciplinary Authority, companyfirmed by the Chairman in appeal, stood set aside by the High Court was on the ground that the order passed by the Disciplinary Authority was an ex parte order.
For the afore stated reasons, we set aside the impugned order and remit the matter to the High Court for de numbero companysideration on merits.
In the facts and circumstances of this case, we are of the view that ends of justice would be subserved if the High Court decides Writ Petition No.13239 of 2003 on merits.
Heard learned companynsel on both sides.
Leave granted.
