However, appellate authority is directed to expedite the hearing of the appeal as provided Sub- Section 6 of Section 38 of the Act of 2012. Needless to say that if any stay application is filed by the petitioner alongwith appeal, same shall be considered and decided expeditiously without unnecessary delay. Accordingly, this writ petition as well as stay application is dismissed. (ANIL KUMAR UPMAN),J MADAN/67
