TRUE COPY PA TO JUDGE. acd S. SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------------------------- Contempt Case(C) No.684 OF 2011 ---------------------------------------------- Dated this the 17th day of August, 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioner complains of non-compliance with directions in Annexure-I judgment. In Annexure-I judgment, I directed as follows: “.................Therefore, the petitioner is entitled to the leave salary for the period of maternity leave, increments every year, promotions when due considering her service from 07.05.1986 and all other benefits. As such, Ext.P13 is clearly in violation of Ext.P1 judgment. In fact it amounts to contempt of court. Accordingly, Ext.P13 is quashed and the writ petition is allowed as prayed for. I was inclined to direct the respondent to pay costs also. But taking a lenient view, I refrain from ordering costs.” It is admitted before me that all the benefits, except some promotions, have been given to the petitioner. As far as the promotion claimed by the petitioner is concerned, the Kerala Water Authority disputes the eligibility of the petitioner for such promotion. In such circumstances, I am of opinion that the petitioner should take up the matter appropriately. Without prejudice to that right, this Contempt Case is closed. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE acd
