Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court's dismissal of a civil revision petition without assigning reasons was unsatisfactory and deprived the appellant of a fair hearing. The Court emphasized the necessity of providing reasons for judicial decisions to ensure clarity and minimize arbitrariness, as mandated by principles of justice. Consequently, the Court set aside the High Court's order and remanded the case for proper disposal, while refraining from commenting on the merits of the case.
