It is contended that no opportunity of hearing was afforded to the petitioner before passing the impugned order. It is further contended that since the order impugned cast aspersions upon the petitioner's College, therefore, an opportunity of hearing ought to have been afforded to the petitioner. 4. Per contra, learned counsel for the respondents would contend that there is serious allegation of mass-copying against the petitioner's College, therefore, in such view of the fact, there is no illegality in the impugned order. 5. Be that as it may, the order impugned reveals that the petitioner was not afforded any opportunity of hearing by the respondent no.3 before passing the impugned order. The impugned order cast aspersions and serious allegation against the petitioner's College by alleging that the petitioner's College is involved in mass- copying. 6.
