Heard learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner and Sri Ankur Agarwal, learned Standing Counsel appearing on behalf of the State respondents. 2. This is a writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India wherein the writ petitioner has sought for the following substantial relief: "Issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of certiorari quashing the impugned order dated 14.08.2024 (Annexure-1) passed by respondent no.2." 3. Upon perusal of the impugned order, it is clear that the said order has been passed subsequent to the cancellation of registration of the petitioner. Furthermore, it appears that the order impugned has been passed ex parte, behind the back of the petitioner, and thereafter, order has not been served upon the petitioner. 4. In light of the same, we are of the view that the principles of natural justice have not been complied with by the authorities.
