Orders
The High Court of Orissa allowed the writ petition and held that the Tahasildar of Patnagarh issued an eviction notice without providing the petitioner a fair hearing, violating natural justice principles. The court directed the Tahasildar to grant the petitioner an opportunity to be heard and issue a reasoned decision within six weeks, with a stay on eviction until such decision is rendered. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
