COrder and execution
DIssuing a press release in newspapers
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Issuing a press release in newspapers
1. The redressal sequence is: file complaint → admit → notice to opposite party → hearing → order → execution.
2. Public press releases are not a formal step; the proceedings are quasi-judicial.
3. Hence (C) is NOT part of the process.
4. Other options are mandatory steps.
