Short Counter Affidavits

  1. n Misri Lal v. District Basic Education Officer reported in 2002 (4) AWC 2625, this Hon'ble Court had taken the following view with respect to filing of the short counter affidavits:

 "7. Respondent Nos. 1 and 2 claim to have filed a short counter-affidavit instead of filing regular parawise reply to the counter-affidavit. This practice is to be deprecated. There is no procedure/provision contemplating filing of short counter-affidavit or in piece-meal. This is not a healthy practice but developed in the recent past and used many times to delay the hearing of the case must be stopped."
