Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the Senior Standing Counsel for the Union of India representing the respondents we are of the opinion that this writ petition should be rejected on the ground that the petitioner has an alternative statutory remedy of appeal &#8211; where he can raise all the points raised in this writ petition.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.      The   plea  of   not   affording   adequate   opportunity   of   inspecting the papers and documents relied upon in the impugned order, would depend on the facts of the case, which can be gone into in the appeal rather than in this petition.  Similarly  the question whether any prejudice was caused by not producing the branch manager for cross-examination would depend on  what  prayer   was  made  for  the  same  and  whether  his  presence  was necessary  for  cross-examination.  This  too will depend on other evidence and the facts of the case. All this involves sifting of evidence and examination  of  the  materials  on  the  record.   We feel that this can be raised before   the   appellate   authority.   As regards  the  appreciation   of   evidence, this  court  will   not  undertake  to  reappraise  evidence  in  a petition  under Article   226  of   the  Constitution.  This  can be done   in  greater   detail   by the appellate authority.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.      We are   therefore,   of   the   opinion   that   the   writ   petition   must be rejected on the ground that the petitioner has an alternative remedy by way of appeal under Section 35B of the Central Excises and Salt Act, 1944. This writ petition is accordingly rejected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Allahabad High Court Heera Electrodes vs Union Of India (Uoi) And Anr. on 22 November, 1985 Equivalent citations: 1986 (7) ECC 155, 1987 (32) ELT 520 All Bench: A Banerji, V Khanna ORDER 1.
