Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court set aside the Allahabad High Court's order dismissing the appeal summarily, holding that the High Court failed to apply its mind and did not provide a reasoned order as required by law. The Court remitted the matter back to the High Court for fresh disposal, emphasizing the need for a speaking order. The appeal was allowed to this extent, with no order as to costs, and any application for refund by the appellant shall be decided promptly by the High Court.
