The High Court found this denial breached Principles of Natural Justice and directed the Collector to allow cross-examination before deciding the matter afresh. The Collector's ruling was challenged for violating Principles of Natural Justice, leading to its setting aside and a directive for a fresh examination with cross-examination opportunities.
