DATE : DECEMBER 10, 2009 P.C. 1 Heard the learned senior counsel for the petitioner and the learned senior counsel for the contemnors. It is not in dispute that on 9 th December 2009, the City Engineer of the Municipal Corporation of Mumbai has passed an order by which the case of the petitioners for promotion as Assistant Engineers in the reserved category in the Civil Engineering Department of the Corporation has been considered. 2 The learned senior counsel for the petitioners makes a grievance that the promotion ought to have been granted to the petitioners from an earlier dates. In the contempt petition, this Court is concerned only with the compliance with the order passed by the Division Bench. 2 The main writ petition is still pending and it is obvious that the petitioners can agitate their rights and contentions in the main petition and they can always challenge the order dated 9 th December 2009 in accordance with law. 3 Though belatedly, a substantial compliance has been made by the respondents with the directions of the Division Bench by considering the case of the petitioners. 4 Hence, no case is made out for taking any further action against the respondents either under Contempt of Courts Act,1971 or under Article 215 of the Constitution of India. 5 Subject to what is observed above, contempt petition is disposed of.
