Cuttack, July 12: The Orissa High Court has quashed the notification comprising the list of awardees selected by the Orissa Sangeet Natak Akademi for 2001.
A division bench comprising Chief Justice S Burman Ray and Justice Laxmikanta Mohapatra yesterday quashed the list after ruling that proper procedure had not been followed in the matter.
The bench gave its ruling after hearing a petition filed by eminent vocalist Pandit Raghunath Panigrahi and others who had challenged the procedure followed by the akademi.
