The instant contempt petition has been preferred against the order/judgment passed by this Court dated 15. 12.
2023, whereby the petition was disposed of at the very threshold with a direction to the respondents to consider/verify the claim of the petitioner as projected in the writ petition with a further direction to take a decision for release of the amount due within a period of two months from the date, a certified copy of the order was made available by the petitioner to respondents and the decision which was likely to be taken by the respondents was to be conveyed to the petitioner. 02. Since the order/judgement passed by this Court has not been complied with, the instant contempt petition has been preferred in which notice was issued way back on 07. 08. 2024 and till date respondents have chosen not to file any reply. 03. Ms. Monika Kohli, Sr. AAG assures this Court that the order/judgment which is sought to be complied, will be complied with within a period of three weeks from today. 04.
In the light of assurance extended by learned counsel for the respondents, no fruitful purpose will be served by keeping this contempt petition alive, and accordingly, the same is disposed of by directing the respondents to comply the order /judgement passed by this court dated 15. 12. 2023 within a period of three weeks from today. Accordingly, proceedings in the instant contempt petition are closed. Rule if any, shall stand discharged. 05. Contempt petition is ‘disposed of’. 06. It is made clear that if the order/judgment is not complied with within the aforesaid period, the petitioner will be at liberty to revive the instant contempt petition and in that eventuality this Court will be constrained to initiate coercive measures against the respondents.
