It is argued that none of the provisions contained in the appendix which are statutory have been followed while proceeding to auction the property. 4. As none of the documents pertaining to manner in which the Recovery Officer is proceeding to auction the property are before this Court and considering the mandate of Section 30, present petition is disposed off permitting the petitioner to file an appeal under Section 30 of the DRT Act, before the Tribunal. 5.
