Court No. - 7
Case :- CONTEMPT APPLICATION (CIVIL) No. - 2605 of 2021 Applicant :- Ram Narayan Opposite Party :- Dr. Pawan Kumar Tiwari (P.E.S.) Counsel for Applicant :- Alok Ranjan Tripathi
Hon'ble Ajit Kumar,J.
Heard learned counsel for the applicant.
By means of this contempt application filed under section 12 of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971 non-compliance of the order dated 10.7.2020 passed by writ Court in Writ- A No.- 4252 of 2020 is complained of. It is alleged that not only the service of the order had been duly effected upon the opposite party vide registered letter dated 10.11.2020 and even after several reminders were made and duly served in respect thereof and yet the order has not been complied with till date.
It is argued by learned counsel for the applicant that there has been a deliberate attempt on the part of the opposite party to flout the order of this court and hence contempt application.
Upon perusal of the order passed by this Court, I find that there was a direction to decide the claim raised in the representation of the petitioner while at the same time the Court did not deal with the merit of the claim.
Issue notice fixing 9th September, 2021.
However, in the circumstances when the claim of the applicant has yet not been dealt with on merits, in my considered view one further opportunity be given to the opposite party so that there comes an authoritative decision on the merit of the claim of the petitioner.
Accordingly, the opposite party is directed to comply with the order of this court passed in Writ- A No.- 4252 of 2020 (Ram Narayan vs. State of U.P. and 2 others) positively within six weeks from the date of service of this order upon him by the applicant who is directed to serve copy of this order upon opposite party within two weeks from today.
Applicant is also directed to cooperate with the opposite party in furnishing such information as the authority may require in making effective and substantial compliance of the order of this Court.
It is further directed that the opposite party shall submit compliance affidavit by thenext date fixed failing which he shall appear before this Court on the next date fixed.
List on 9th September, 2021.
