Judgment text as reported

BASHEER AHMED PHULPOTO VS PROVINCE OF SINDH, through Secretary Local Government Department Government of Sindh Termination from service---Non-issuance of show cause notice---Audi alteram partem---Scope---Petitioners assailed their termination orders---Validity---Even if it was accepted that a notice was sent to the employees, ex facie the same was deficient and did not properly satisfy the test of what constituted a valid show-cause notice---Employees were, at the very least, to be properly confronted with the allegations as to the invalidity of their appointments so as to be able to properly respond thereto, under the given circumstances of the case they did not appear to have been extended such an opportunity, which militated against the well settled principles of natural justice, enshrined in the maxim audi alteram partem---Termination orders were set aside with direction to the respondents to process the cases of the petitioners afresh---Constitutional petitions were disposed of accordingly.
