Petitioner: TANVEER SHOUKAT VS Respondent: DISTRICT & SESSIONS JUDGE, NAROWAL, etc.
Court Name: Supreme Court of Pakistan Judge(s): Javaid Iqbal, Chaudhry Ijaz Ahmed Title: TANVEER SHOUKAT vs DISTRICT & SESSIONS JUDGE, NAROWAL, etc. Case No.: Civil Petition No, 2243-L of 2003 Date of Judgment:2006-02-15 Reported As: PLJ 2006 SC 562 Result: Case remanded
Judgment ORDER Javed Iqbal, J.--Heard Mr. Pervaiz Inayat Malik, learned ASC on behalf of petitioner and Mr. Akhtar Ali Qurshi, learned Assistant Advocate General Punjab for the respondents, scanned the entire record and perused the judgment impugned as well as the order passed by the learned District Judge, Narowal (Appellate Authority). It appears that the order has not been passed with diligent application of mind as the petitioner appears to be well conversant with Urdu Language and has got reasonable skill in writing Urdu which makes him capable to perform his routine duties. The learned District Judge (Appellate Authority) has on the contrary observed that the petitioner is not capable to write even simple sentences in Urdu which observation seems to be without any substance in view of the fact that the petitioner was called in person and asked to write a few sentences in Urdu which was done by the petitioner. In view of the above, this petition is converted into appeal and accepted. The judgment impugned as well as the order passed by learned District Judge, Narowal, are set aside. The appeal preferred on behalf of petitioner before the learned District Judge, Narowal (Appellate Authority) shall be treated as pending which shall be decided in accordance with law and on merits within a period of fifteen days after affording proper opportunity of hearing to all concerned.
