Deaf, Dumb and Blind
TODAY we are carrying an order by the High Court where the High Court advised the Tribunal to bear in mind that the Judgements of Tribunal are subject to scrutiny by the High Court and the need to pass speaking orders. We got this mail from a netizen on Speaking Orders:
Speaking order is a rare commodity these days. Most of the orders are dumb and the submissions during the personal hearing fall on deaf ears. Finally the show cause notices are confirmed blindly resulting in senseless orders. The first few pages of the adjudication order, you find the show cause notice repeated, the next few pages contain the submissions in reply filed and finally the order confirming the allegations without any discussion of the points raised in reply.
