Senior Advocate Ashok Parija was representing Thakare in this case. “Perused the complaint, notices so issued to the Collector involved herein, response pursuant to such notices by the Collector and the provision so relied on by Mr.Parija, learned Senior Advocate and this Court is of the prima facie opinion that there is exercise of power by the Commission beyond scope and limits under the Rule, 2021, this Court finds a prima facie case in favour of the petitioner,” the HC’s order issued by a single-Judge bench of Justice Biswanath Rath stated.
