The petitioner is permitted to file once again rectified TRAN-I Form electronically or manually within a period of 30 days from today; pursuant to the petitioner filing the said form, respondents would consider and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law.
We form an opinion that the order is bad in law. This we say so, for two reasons- (a) violation of principles of natural justice, i.e. Fair opportunity of hearing. No sufficient time was afforded to the petitioner to represent his case; (b) order passed ex parte in nature, does not assign any sufficient reasons even decipherable from the record, as to how the officer could determine the amount due and payable by the assessee. The order, ex parte in nature, passed in violation of the principles of natural justice, entails civil consequences.

This Court is of the considered opinion that changing mode of instruction to English or imparting education in English per-se is not violative of fundamental rights guaranteed to the children or to their parents under Article 21A of the Constitution of India. Because Article 21A only assures right of a child below 14 years to have access to free and compulsory education, whereas the manner has been left at the discretion of the State to be determined by law.
HC not deemed it appropriate to non-suit the petitioner on the ground that there is an efficacious remedy of appeal, more so since we are not setting aside the order on merits but are only directing that the Assessing Officer should pass a fresh order after affording an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner.
