IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.901 of 2007 RANJEET KUMAR NIRALA Versus STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 5 12.08.2009 In pursuance of the order of this Court dated 20.12.2006 passed in C.W.J.C.No.10603 of 2005, petitioner had filed a fresh representation before opposite party no.5, Executive Officer, Nagar Panchayat, Sultanganj, Bhagalpur on 8.1.2007 vide Annexure-2 along with a copy of the order. Learned counsel for the opposite parties points out that the same has been considered and disposed of on 16.8.2007 vide Annexure-D to the show cause. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there was a decision of the General Body of the Nagar Panchayat dated 25.8.2005 that the petitioner will be paid only 30 % of the pay-scale admissible to him which came to Rs.1500/- per month and the remaining 70 % shall be paid to him after receipt of the fund from the State Government. He submits that this aspect of the matter has not been considered by the opposite parties. From Annexure-2 it is apparent that this issue was not at all raised by the petitioner himself in his representation filed in compliance to - 2 - the orders of this Court and, therefore, the opposite parties were not obliged to consider that aspect of the matter and pass any order on the same. In view of the deficient representation filed by the petitioner and its disposal, this Court does not find that it is a fit case in which contempt proceeding should continue. The application is, accordingly, dismissed. However, the petitioner will be at liberty to agitate his claim, in view of the said decision of the General Body of the Nagar Panchayat dated 25.8.2005, in accordance with law. B.T (J.N. Singh, J.)
