FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET NO. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE, BENCH AT AURANGABAD CONTEMPT PETITION NO.310 OF 2010 IN WRIT PETITION NO.4268 OF 2009. ________________________________________________________ Office Notes, Office | Memoranda of Coram, | Court's or Judge's orders appearances, Court's | orders or directions | and Registrar's orders | ________________________________________________________ This contempt petition alleges disobedience of order dated 10th March, 2010 passed by the learned Division Bench of this Court in Writ Petition No. 4268 of 2009 whereby the respondents were directed to consider the claim of the petitioners for accommodation subject to availability of vacancy and subject to the regulations, as may be applicable to such appointment. It further appears that the respondents were expected to take decision within two weeks from the date of passing of the order by the Division Bench and to communicate the same to the petitioners. However, it is an admitted position that the said order is not complied with by the respondents within two weeks from the date of order. 2 The learned A.G.P., relying on the affidavit, submits that the said order is complied with on 28th September, 2010. He invited my attention to the affidavit filed by Dr. Kavita Gupta, working as Secretary (Labour), Mantralaya, Mumbai and submitted that every endeavour is made by the Secretary to see that the order dated 10th March, 2010 is complied with, in letter and spirit. He further invited my attention to para 6 of the affidavit and submitted that the Secretary (Labour) department tendered unconditional apology for the delay occurred in complying the order of the Division Bench of this Court. 3 Perusal of the affidavit filed by Dr. Kavita Gupta, Secretary (Labour), Government of Maharashtra shows that possible explanation has been offered in the affidavit. It is not in dispute that the scheme is by the Central Government and the petitioners are required to be accommodated in that scheme. 4 Taking overall view of the matter and in view of the statement made in the affidavit- in-reply filed on behalf of the Secretary (Labour) department, I do not think that there is any willful disobedience of the order of Division Bench. In this view of the matter, nothing survives for further consideration. The Contempt Petition, therefore, stands dismissed. Notice is discharged. (S.S. SHINDE, J.) 01.10.2010. PLK/*
