The petitioners by means of the present writ petition have assailed the order dated 09.03.2025 passed by the respondent no.1- District Inspector of Schools, Azamgarh by which petitioners have been debarred from participating in the Board Examination-2025 on the ground that some irregularity has been committed in the copy correction in the institution of petitioner namely, 'Shibli National Inter College, Azamgarh' in the Intermediate Examination-2023. 3. It is contended by the learned counsel for the petitioner that impugned order is punitive in nature and has been passed in violation of principles of natural justice, therefore, impugned order cannot be sustained in law. 4. Be that as it may, perusal of impugned order indicates that no notice and opportunity of hearing was afforded to the petitioners before passing the impugned order. 5. Learned Standing Counsel also could not show from the record that any notice or opportunity of hearing was given to the petitioners by the respondent no.1 before passing the impugned order. 6. In such view of the fact, the writ petition is disposed off permitting the petitioners to file a detail representation alongwith certified copy of this order against the order dated 09.03.2025 before the respondent no.1-District Inspector of Schools, Azamgarh within a period of one week from today. In case, any such representation is filed by the petitioners, the respondent no.1 shall consider and decide the same in accordance with law within a period of three weeks, thereafter, after giving due notice and opportunity of hearing to all the concerned parties. 7. The impugned order dated 09.03.2025 shall abide by the orders to be passed by the respondent no.1 on the representation of the petitioners.
