AKIL KURESHI _O_R_D_E_ R_ 26/11/2020 In WP(C) No. 1208/2017 filed by the petitioner Court had issued following directions : “[7] The issues being squarely covered by the above-mentioned judgments of this Court, I have no hesitation in allowing the petition. It is directed that the respondents shall grant the benefit rd of 3 ACP to the petitioner in the scale of pay(pre revised) Rs. 5000-10300/- (corresponding revised scale of PB-2 Rs. 5310-th 24,000/- with Grade Pay of Rs. 2400/-) w. e. f 25 September, 2012. Such pay fixation shall be done with consequential effect. The petitioner shall be entitled to arrears of salary.

Entire exercise including payment of arrears shall be completed within 4(four) months from today. Petition disposed of accordingly. Pending application(s), if any, also stands disposed of. ” Page - 2 of 2 These directions were to be complied within four months from th the date of the judgment. Four months would be over on 29 October, 2020. Within less than one month thereafter the petitioner has filed this contempt petition. At this stage, I am not inclined to initiate contempt proceedings against respondents. However, this does not mean that the respondents can avoid compliance of the directions unless the directions are stayed by the Division Bench. The respondents shall within 2(two) weeks from today convey to the petitioner whether any such appeal is filed or not and if filed, stay has been granted by the Division Bench or whether the respondents are in the process of complying with the directions. The petitioner would serve a copy of this order on the respondents.

Contempt petition is disposed of accordingly. ( AKIL KURESHI, CJ) Sukhendu
