1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the State-respondents.
2. Present petition has been filed for quashing the order dated 16.07.2024 passed by respondent No. 3.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that petitioner was issued show cause notice dated 10.10.2023 to which he submitted detailed reply dated 20.11.2023, upon which impugned order has been passed only on the ground that petitioner could not produce relevant evidence.
