Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court set aside the order of the High Court of Punjab and Haryana, which dismissed a writ petition on the grounds of delay without providing a reasoned decision. The Court held that the High Court failed to apply its mind and did not issue a speaking order as required by law. The appeal was remitted back to the High Court for fresh disposal, with a directive to decide the matter within three months.
