(Oral) While placing on record communication dated 10.09.2026, issued under the signatures of Under Secretary (TCP), Government of Himachal Pradesh, Mr. Vishal Panwar, learned Additional Advocate General, states that having taken note of order dated 08.09.2026 passed by this Court as well as opinion rendered by the Law Department, Government has decided to constitute a Committee under the Chairmanship of the Hon’ble TCP Minister to decide the revision/ appeal. He states that Committee was constituted vide notification dated 07.08.2026 and petitioners were called for a personal hearing on 26.08.2026, but despite having received notice, they failed to come present. He further states that now petitioners 2 shall be afforded another opportunity of personal hearing before the Committee and in that regard, file has been sent to the Chairman- cum-Hon’ble TCP Minister of the Committee to fix the new date and time for personal hearing. 2. Since precise grouse of the petitioners is that there is no authority to decide their appeal, which stands redressed with the constitution of the Committee under the Chairmanship of the Hon’ble TCP Minister, coupled with the fact that Committee has decided to afford an opportunity of hearing to the petitioners, nothing remains to be adjudicated in the instant petition and accordingly, the same is disposed of with a direction to the aforesaid Committee to ensure that before deciding the revision filed by the petitioners, they are afforded an opportunity of hearing. Pending application(s), if any, stand disposed of. (Sandeep Sharma ) Judge September 11, 2026 (sunil)
