IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.46 of 2009 DR. FAZAL AHMAD . Versus SYNDICATE P.U V.C PATNA& ORS . ----------- 4/ 28/07/2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the University. Mr. Ajay Kumar Sinha appearing for the opposite parties submits that he has filed his show cause on 7.12.2009 which is not available on record. This Court therefore requested the counsel for the opposite parties to make available his copy so as not to hold up the proceedings on that ground. The direction on the writ petition was to consider for promotion. The show cause at paragraph-2 supported by Annexure-A states that the petitioners have been promoted by an order dated 7.7.2009. Learned counsel for the petitioner, however, raises a claim for salary. In view of the nature of the order on the writ petition, this Court finds it difficult to proceed in contempt jurisdiction on that ground. However, it is expected that the aspect of salary shall be appropriately considered. If it is withheld for no justifiable reason and the petitioner has to resort to appropriate proceedings for the same, he may be - 2 - entitled to a claim for interest thereupon also. Any dispute with regard to the claim of the correctness of the date of promotion may be the subject- matter of adjudication in a fresh writ petition only. The contempt application stands disposed.
