Hon'ble Manoj Kumar Gupta,J.
By order dated 24.4.2018 in Writ-A No.10483 of 2018, liberty was granted to the applicant to file a fresh representation before the Executive Officer, Nagar Panchayat within fifteen days and same was directed to be decided by him within a further period of three months.
Counsel for the applicant submitted that a certified copy of order of the Writ-Court alongwith fresh representation was sent to opposite party by registered post on 1.5.2018, but no decision has been taken in the matter so far.
This Court is of the opinion that before inaction on part of the opposite party in considering the claim of the applicant is treated as wilful disobedience of the order of the Writ Court, one more opportunity be granted to ensure compliance of the said order.
Accordingly, the instant contempt application is disposed of with liberty to the applicant to file a certified copy of this order alongwith fresh representation before the opposite party and in which event, the opposite party shall ensure that decision in due compliance of the direction issued by the Writ-Court is taken within next eight weeks. In case the decision is yet not taken, as directed herein, it shall be open to the applicant to initiate fresh contempt proceedings.
