PRAYAGRAJ: Taking serious note of the inability of a judicial officer to write a judgment, Allahabad high court has directed that additional district judge Amit Verma of Kanpur Nagar be sent to the judicial training institute for three months of training.
Justice Neeraj Tiwari passed the order while allowing a writ petition filed by one Munni Devi of Kanpur Nagar when her plea to add some additional grounds in a tenancy dispute was rejected.
The petitioner assailing the impugned order submitted that the additional district judge arbitrarily dismissed the amendment application in a three-line order without going into the merit of the issue. The petitioner further submitted that not a single line has been written as to why the amendment application was rejected.
The petitioner alleged that earlier too the same judge had committed a similar mistake.
After going through the impugned order, the high court in its order dated April 22 said: "This court is of the firm view that Amit Verma, the additional district judge, Kanpur Nagar, is not competent to write a judgment. Therefore, he must be sent for training for at least three months at the Judicial Training and Research Institute, Lucknow."
