The said Advocate first suggested to file first appeal and later suggested to file a review petition before the Commission with other documents. Thereafter, the Applicant/Appellant approached another ORDER IN IA Nos. 2242 & 1591 of 2019 Advocate in Bangalore to file a review petition before the Commission, who took two months time i.e., till February 2019 to prepare the review petition. Finally, on 08.03.2019, when the Applicant/Appellant approached the Bangalore based Senior Advocate, he was advised by the Senior Advocate to file an appeal before this Tribunal instead of the review petition before the Commission.
