It is submitted by the learned counsel that according to the appellant service of the notice of the ejectment case has not been effected upon the appellant and the order holding the service to be good had been obtained through its representation by the respondent. According to the learned counsel, as soon the appellant1 came to know about the passing of the impugned ejectment order, an application for setting aside the ex parte order was moved by the appellant but the same has now been rejected by order, dated 17th November, 1983.
