HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD WRIT - C No. - 30485 of 2025 Court No. - 40 HON'BLE SARAL SRIVASTAVA, J. HON'BLE SUDHANSHU CHAUHAN, J. 1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the State respondents. 2. By means of the present writ petition, the petitioner has assailed the order by which the income certificate issued to her husband has been cancelled. 3. Challenging the said order, learned counsel for the petitioner has contended that the petitioner's husband was issued an income certificate on 26.03.2024. Due to the cancellation of this income certificate, the petitioner, who had been selected as an Anganwadi Karyakarti in Village Bacheli, Data Nagar, Tehsil Dataganj, District Budaun, has been adversely affected. It is submitted that the said certificate has been cancelled without issuing any notice or affording any opportunity of hearing to the petitioner, and the cancellation has been effected by a cryptic and non-speaking order. 4. Learned counsel for the respondent contends that the income certificate was cancelled due to certain infirmities in its issuance, and therefore, the cancellation does not suffer from any illegality. 5. Be that as it may, the impugned order is reproduced as under :- "स्वीकृ त प्ऴ/्ऺमाण प्ऴ िवभागीय अनुशंसा के आधार पर िनरस्त कर िदया गया है। कृ पया सम्बिन्धत कें ्श Versus Counsel for Petitioner(s) : Arvind Kumar Rai, Jitendra Kumar Yadav Counsel for Respondent(s) : C.S.C. Smt. Arti Devi .....Petitioner(s) State Of U.P. And 6 Others .....Respondent(s) अथवा अिधकारी से सम्पकर् करें। " 6. From the aforesaid facts, it is evident that the impugned order is cryptic and passed without application of mind. Further, once respondent authority had issued the income certificate, it could not have been cancelled without affording due notice and opportunity of hearing to the petitioner. 7. In such view of the fact, the writ petition is allowed and the impugned order is set aside, with liberty to respondent no.5 to pass a fresh order after giving due notice and opportunity of hearing to the petitioner, in accordance with law.
