IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM
BECHU KURIAN THOMAS, J
AFSAL HANEEF – Appellant
Versus
THE BAR COUNCIL OF INDIA – Respondent
JUDGMENT
Petitioner’s enrolment as an Advocate has been suspended since one of the certificates submitted by him along with his application for enrolment was found to be forged. Challenging the order of suspension of enrolment, petitioner has preferred Exhibit-P1 revision petition before the respondent. The limited prayer now sought for by the petitioner is for a direction to dispose of the said revision petition in a time-bound manner.
2. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent, I am of the view that this writ petition can be disposed of with a direction.
3. Accordingly, there will be a direction to the respondent to consider the revision petition preferred by the petitioner, produced as Exhibit-P1, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of six months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. It is clarified that if the petitioner seeks unnecessarily adjournments, the timeline shall not be binding on the respondent.
The writ petition is disposed of.
