order dated 14.06.2025 passed by the opposite party no.1 and for issuance of a Writ of mandamus calling for the record from the opposite party no.2.
Learned counsel for petitioner appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that an order has been passed by the respondent no.1 without granting any opportunity of hearing to the petitioner. Upon perusal of the documents and upon hearing counsel for the parties, it is clear that no opportunity of hearing was granted to the petitioner prior to passing of the order dated 14.06.2025. In the light of the same, there has been a clear violation of the principle of natural justice, and accordingly, the impugned order is quashed and set aside with direction to the authority concerned to grant an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner and respondent no.3. Once the opportunity of hearing is granted a reasoned order shall be passed by the U.P. Sunni Central Waqf Board, Lucknow in accordance with law within a period of eight weeks from the date of hearing.
