ORDER
Purushaindra Kumar Kaurav, J. (Oral)--The petitioner has filed the instant writ petition against the order of the Southern Regional Committee (hereinafter referred to as `SRC') dated 20.04.2022, whereby, the recognition of the petitioner-institution has been withdrawn with respect to B.Ed. course from the Academic Session 2022-23. The order of withdrawal dated 20.04.2022 has been affirmed in appeal in terms of the order dated 11.01.2023 passed by the Appellate Committee, which has also been challenged in the instant petition.

Course but surprisingly, without following the due process in accordance with law, the order of withdrawal came to be passed.
