This Court while entertaining this writ petition hads passed an ad interim order dated 18.01.2013 by which the execution of the impugned order was stayed subject to thecondition that he petitioner shall pay a sum of Rs.3,000/- to each of the respondents during the pendency of this petition. the aforesaid order has remained in force for past more than 5 years.
