Canara Bank And Ors vs Shri Debasis Das And Ors on 12 March, 2003
43. The Apex Court in Canara Bank versus Debasis Das and others (supra), has succinctly synopsized the principles of natural justice to be rules laid down by the Courts as being the minimum protection of rights of the individual against the arbitrary procedure that may be adopted by a judicial, quasi judicial and administrative authority while making an order affecting those rights, the essence thereof being to put a party on notice of the case before any adverse order is passed against him.
