Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order due to violation of natural justice principles, as respondent No.6 was not heard before the order was made, which could have serious civil consequences for the appellant. The Court emphasized that such orders cannot be sustained without compliance with natural justice. Consequently, the appeals were allowed, and the orders of the High Court were set aside, with one special leave petition dismissed as infructuous.
