When this contempt case is taken up for further consideration today, we have been informed by Ms.K.Meera, learned Senior Government Pleader, that the insistence made by the respondent for production of undertaking on 50 Rupee stamp paper from the members of the staff is only in terms of the procedure prescribed in this regard. As regards the insistence for production of acquittance register and attendance register, learned Government Pleader submits that, for the time being and if this Court so directs, the petitioners need not produce them in the peculiar facts and circumstances of this case. 2. It is brought to our notice that the Drawing and Disbursing Officer has, on behalf of the management, given Annexure M undertaking to the effect that if the Government Cont. Case (C) No.1192 of 2009 - 2 - incurs any loss, the management will refund the entire amount to the Treasury as and when directed. 3. Having carefully perused the entire materials available on record and having heard learned counsel for the parties, we are of the view that the respondent has to be directed to countersign the salary bills presented by the Drawing and Disbursing Officer forthwith. Ordered accordingly. With the above direction the contempt case is closed. S.R.Bannurmath, Chief Justice A.K. Basheer, Judge vns
