Counsel for the applicant submitted that a certified copy of the order of the Writ Court was submitted in the office of opposite party on 09.04.2015 and it was also sent by registered post on 10.04.2018, but no decision has been taken in the matter so far.

Accordingly, the instant contempt application is disposed of with liberty to the applicant to file a certified copy of this order along with fresh representation before the opposite party and in which event, he shall ensure that compliance of the direction issued by the Writ Court is made within next eight weeks. In case the compliance is still not made, as directed herein, it shall be open to the applicant to initiate fresh contempt proceedings against the opposite party.
