JUDGMENT
JUSTICE . SRI. P.Q. BARKATH ALI: PRESIDENT
It is seen from the copy of the order of the Forum that version filed by the opposite party was not accepted by the Forum on the ground that it was filed after the statutory period. Taking in to account the nature of the contentions raised by the parties, we feel that an opportunity should be given to the appellant to contest the matter on merits. Hence appeal is allowed. The impugned order of the Forum allowing the complaint is set aside. The matter is remanded to the Forum for fresh disposal in accordance with law. Appellant shall appear before the Forum on May 30, 2017. On receipt of the records Forum shall issue notice to the complaint.
