"The petitioner claims to be aggrieved by an order of the Central
Information Commission (CIC) dated 31.07.2007 and the letter dated 06.08.2007 
issued by the Respondent No.4. The ground on which the present writ proceeding 
is preferred is principally that the Central Information Commission had 
directed disclosure of the entire report pertaining to the applicant, to the 
fifth respondent Mr. Milap Choraria, who had applied for information. It is 
submitted that the order should have been preceeded by notice to the petitioner 
who should have been afforded an opportunity to participate in the proceedings 
before the CIC.

After hearing the petitioner and the fifth respondent, who is present
today, the Court is of the opinion that the CIC should re-examine the matter 
and pass appropriate orders on the fifth respondent s appeal after affording 
the present petitioner as well as the fifth
respondent a fresh opportunity of hearing. The present order shall not be 
considered as expression on the merits of the case; all rights and contentions 
of the petitioner and the fifth respondent on the merits of the appeal are 
hereby reserved. The CIC shall endeavor to complete the hearing and pass orders 
as early as possible, preferably within three months from today.

The writ petition is allowed to the above extent.
