Dear Myth Kumar The Allahabad High Court has the HIGHEST pendency rate in the country. It will take 600 years to clear the present backlog.
So paying Rs.500 at this Court is a CHEAP and TIME-BOUND means to ensure that the Writ Petition you will file here against the order of this Court's FAA will definitely come up for hearing before the 30th century.
